Why, using a EMF tester on a smartphone in airplane mode, do I get a very low measure (\$< 1 mG\$), whereas using some applications which exploit the phone magnetometer, I get a very high value, something as \$35 \mu G\$\$35 \mu T\$? I get also a significant difference when I switch airplane mode off.

Fixed MathJax delimiters (a single $ doesn't work as a start/end MathJax delimiter on this site, although it does work on some other Stack Exchange sites)
