Sensors in mobile apps are essential components that enable devices to perceive and respond to their surroundings. These electronic detectors, integrated into smartphones and tablets, measure various physical parameters such as motion, orientation, location, and ambient conditions. Developers harness this wealth of data through software interfaces to create applications that adapt to user behaviors and environmental changes.

For instance, accelerometers and gyroscopes facilitate gesture recognition and gaming experiences, GPS modules enable precise location-based services, and ambient light sensors adjust screen brightness for optimal visibility. By leveraging these sensors, mobile apps become more intuitive and context-aware, offering users enhanced functionality and a seamless, personalized experience.
