Tawkon Radiation-Tracking App Launched on Android



We always held our phones near to us, while we were on call.
But, We never imagined the amount of radiation our phone emitted during the calls.
Hence, Developers at Tawkon devised a way to solve this radiation curiosity.
The Tawkon app measures a phone’s radiation levels by collecting data on what network band a phone is running on, the wireless antenna it’s using, and how hard the phone has to work to get a cellular signal. All this information is exposed by the phone’s OS.

Tawkon’s app analyzes all this data by way of a patent-pending algorithm, and offers up a real-time calculation of the phone’s radiation emission, and the rate of radiation absorption a user is facing. If the app determines radiation levels are high, it issues suggestions on how to talk more safely.

The Android version of Tawkon was built with a specific audience in mind: people who care about health and wellness. Indeed, even though a phone’s radiation emissions might pass FCC specifications, they might still be too high for people worried about radiation absorption risks.
