Is there a light meter app for the iPad? I can't find anything in the Apple App Store.
Maybe it's technically impossible, for some reason. It's something for
which I would have thought there was a demand. Similar to a sound level meter, which I already have.

Searching the app store is probably working best if you know the name of a particular app.
So best to search at google first.. just search for "light meter app iPad" and
you get lots of
suggestions.

I see what you mean!
I've had a look at them, and the one that comes nearest is to my simple needs is probably LUX. But many of the reviews are very negative, and it gets a poor
overall rating.
I realise that people are more likely to report difficulties than satisfaction, but there are reports ranging from "it doesn't work" through "it's inconsistent" and 'it's wildly inaccurate" to 'it's almost impossible to
use unless you pay".
Some of the others appear to be free, but have hidden subscriptions - I'm not falling for that!
I think I'd better think it out again.
John.
For what would you use such a light meter if there WAS one, John?

You could just buy a basic used light meter on eBay. You can get a
Vivitar 35 or 45 for £10-15. I have one of the former which I use as my everday meter for film photography. It takes a simple button cell which
lasts for years and is still accurate even though it's now about 40
years old.

Yes that's an important point, I've used "light meter" but all I wanted to do was
geta rough idea of the amount of light at differtn times of day and under artifical light conditions
to see how an old solar panel would perform under those conditions.
I've often wonder if theres a photographic version like we used for photography back in the
days before we had in-biult light meters in camera and how they'd compare
