Tawkon: The Android app which detects the radiations emitted from your mobile phone.

The Tawkon app predicts the level of radiation emitted by your mobile phone and notifies you when you are in high exposure.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the amount of radio frequency (RF) radiation absorbed by us when we use a mobile phone. Every phone or handset is measured and rated in terms of their SAR. It is common in U.S.A and Canada. The maximum allowable SAR for any handset is 1.6 watts per kilogram. So while buying any cell phone do check its SAR ratings.

We are not sure whether these radiations are harmful to users or not, some studies show that these radiations are harmful and linked them to infertility,
cancer, reduction in sperm count etc while some studies show link at all.

You can believe in either of the studies Tawkon will here for the android users, which will tell you about the SAR rates. This app detects the radiation output of your phone and notifies you when you are exposed to high pressure. Tawkon doesnot count the actual radiation output of you phone because you phone doesnot have any in-built Geiger Count. Instead app calculates SAR according to an algorithm. For example, suppose your device is in weak signal that means it needs to boost up its RF. Tawkon uses an algorithm based on your network, signal strength, handset model and data. It is not a perfect system but still reliable. According to electromagnetic-field –testing-company Satimo, Tawkon is reliable and it is able to predict the SAR levels almost as actual radiating equipment.
