Auto-exposure allows some light-level measurement. It is limited when used as Lux Meter, as it cannnot be calibrated. So it only reports ball-park figures for Lux.
Still the app is useful for comparative readings around a premises.

If it only uses the front camera that makes it kind of useless for setting a work space’s light levels. Maybe if it spoke it could call out the light level when it’s upside down.
