Able to track drones flying about snooping via the filters under I R lens detector. Brilliant. Unable to see with naked eye at night. This lifts the vail. Drones are all over at night. Big brother is far too concerned about everyone's business. Look up and look for yourselves. Calm night with no clouds. Pay attention. We bitterly have no privacy. Phone, net and your off time hanging around out your house. Thanks to this ap I now have it documented. They can not hide at night anymore

Works very well, west too use, simple interface. Read the instructions and tips. It does what it says or does, nothing more, nothing less. It correctly identified my smart TV as well as my security camera even though it was in the next room, through a wall. Pretty impressive.

Not bad, I f you could explain what number should be at or hike to and show a list of different kind of hidden devices, so we would know what it is to be expected to see of fine.other than that it's a great app and why 4 of 5 stars.

To detect infrared filters don't work anymore for some reason. Fix it I paid for it. Or refund me

Changed my rating from 4 stars to 1 star. What happened to the different filters on the infrared camera detector? The filters made it so much easier to detect certain infrared lights and now the buttons are there, but they don't activate the filters! Very disappointed.

You have to move app facing your sensor towards the object.To know sensor position of your phone, have any camera and move nearby top of your phone and bottom of your phone. When it beeps, you find the sensor position
Infrared camera detector - This app has one more tool which is detect infrared lights.Just open the infrared detector and scan for white light that appear on screen but not visible by naked eye. Such white light indicate infrared light.It could be infrared camera. Your normal cam can also detect it but what we have is inbuilt feature with luminescence effect.

FAQ
My phone does not have magnetic sensor -
This app analyse magnetic activity based on readings from magnetic sensor of your android device. If this sensor is not available, you can only use infrared detector feature. Other way is you can try on some other device having magnetic sensor.
App beeps near metal or electronics -
This app is not designed to detect metals. Metals are good conductor for electricity so they have electromagnetism but it is very weak and app is designed to ignore it.
But sometimes, some type of metals depending on their length, material, temperature may exhibit same magnetic activity as that of camera. In that case app may beep. If so always look for lens on the suspect if app beeps.
What do I do if it beeps near metal -
Check if there is any lens on the suspect. If not, then you are secure. if you find lens like object, then there should be hidden camera.
Infrared detector is just a fancy green tool of normal camera. Normal camera can also detect infrared
You are partially-correct. Along with this, infrared detector have luminescence effect to glow white light. If you feel better with normal camera, go for it. We never claimed something false. But please give credit to the app if you never knew IR camera can be detected using digicam. And off course, its a quick scanning feature within the app.
App does not open Infrared camera detector. It shows not responding
Please kill all other camera apps that are running in background.
