As a radio design engineer with a post grad diploma in radiology, I can say with absolute conviction that this "application" is a blatant LOAD OF OLD TOSH.

Absortion of ionising radiation is not something that can be readily metered, save post mortem, hence one of the reasons why scientists on all sides of the fence (biomedical, physics, medicial) have all been unable to agree. Best practice says a) keep use minimal,b) keep away from body when not in use. Don't waste your money - snake oil

While the jury’s still out on health impact of mobile phone usage, many health organizations (eg EWG, FDA) recommend taking precautionary measure to limit exposure to mobile radiation. tawkon is a solution to help implement these measures without disturbing normal phone usage. You can read about the technology behind tawkon by visiting our detailed website to understand the features behind this practical solution to mobile phone radiation.

Well, I guess this app will be never used by "agree" from side of cellphone companies. In other case this application will give really hard-to-discuss statistics on cases-per-usage-of-cellphone of any mulfunction or (I wish it would not happen) even really hard health problems.

People sho sell communications will make everything to delay of full reveal of invisible dangers. Dont forget - they act in law! They do nothing criminal at all!

Why block a nice app to tell you about the amount of radiation your body absorbs

Even if this radiation Won't hurt you - even make you feel better :P

.The word "radiation" here is being used to scare people into parting with their money for an App which is just showing a circular animation in reverse of the number of bars of reception. Cellphones are receivers and transmitters. The "radiation" is the transmit signal. Cellphones automatically control how much transmit power to use based on the receive signal strength. 5 bars receive=low transmit power. 1 bar receive=high transmit power. All cellphones do this to save battery power.

@DrSmokeTrees It's Apple's app store. They can sell or refuse to sell whatever they want. If you want a phone that isn't locked down, don't buy Apple.

@mayacaspi3 The jury is NOT "still out" on the health effects of mobile phone usage. Not a single study has ever shown negative effects relating to cell phone radio waves (I refuse to use the word "radiation" and spread FUD like you guys). Your title is "Tawkon Marketing" and obviously not "Tawkon Scientist". Science is peer reviewed, marketing is mostly bullshit.
