Just not sure how accurate it is with Metal and possibly current carying wires nearby or magnets. I have seen my phones gyro thrown of by small magnets in the phone cases etc or even the ones used to mount to cars.

All phone apps are affected by proximity to metal, i used a piece of 1x2 wood about a metre long and put it on the mount at one end and the phone at the other which gave enough distance to counteract most of the effect
