Phone app for measuring eggs weight

[slordaz]

you will most likely have to buy specialty scale look online, a cell phone app that wiegs an egg without a scale is most likely a hacker program because cell phones cannot weigh anything

Yep. What Slordaz said.

I have an old Android smartphone and if I go to Google Play and type 'scale:, several apps come on the list. So I was wondering if anyone has used any.

 

[slordaz]

nope they aren't a good thing as I have said your cell phone no matter how old or new cannot weigh an egg

Hm. Seems like a phone has some pressure sensitivity... it can tell when you press letters and numbers, and when you press and hold, and when you slide your fingers around to scroll. When have you not pressed too hard and gotten a response you didn't want, like, instead of a letter you get a whole bunch of options from other languages, or the cursor selects the whole word or paragraph to copy and all you're trying to do is scroll up or down? Someone could take that annoying super-sensitivity and turn it into an actual scale, I bet. To weigh little things like jelly beans or chicken eggs. If they haven't yet they should. Like, how many m&ms can I eat, eh?

It must require a scale device to plug in...
....but I don't know much about 'smart' phones,
except they often aren't as 'smart' as proclaimed.

Hmm... got curious so googled.
Guess there is a sensitivity aspect to the screen as @BigBlueHen53 suggested.
Here's some reviews that might help understand how they work (or don't).
