Whats the Application then?!
You can use this App to use your iPhone as a tachometer that measures the speed of any rotating object.
How to use it?
Suppose you have a fan and need to measure its speed (RPM). Turn on the fan in a DARK environment, launch the App on your iPhone (that has flashlight). Manually tune the speed using the main slider of the App to see the rotating object looks almost not moving. Then, start fine tuning using the three buttons in the App to get the exact speed. At this point the rotating object looks like stationary! But, it is moving! So, never touch the moving/rotating object during your test!
