I bought this camera some years ago from amazon and downloaded this app from Google play, and I can say it is one of the best gadgets that I have in my life, it is so useful

Pretty good but sometimes the app doesn't detect the camera, and I have to restart the app.

App sometimes doesn't recognize camera on my new S25+ unfortunately, but it did work in my S22+, it only launches app, that's all sometimes. I'm using the same OTG adapter I always have. When it works though, is still great

No app is perfect. I'm grateful they fixed the default, and the added red filter is great for me. Go get a flir if you want half the resolution at 160x120 like the flir one pro. I'll stick to my focus adjustable lense + 320x240 thermal array. Neither one is perfect, and each has something the other doesn't. Don't like it? Return it. Don't like the software? That's frustrating for sure but providing constructive feedback vs whining, goes a long way.

Terrible app and a terrible product - I have a Seek Thermal Compact Pro and a Samsung phone. The USB connector is too short, and it does not work with every phone case. Did developers of that thing ever considered that people use phone cases? - The app is crashing after a minute of work. - My previous phone (Sony) has a USB port on the right side, and the app did not support screen rotation. Several years passed, they still did not add it. Sorry guys, my next cam will be from another brand.

App opens up and shows the thermal camera for about 10-15 seconds then it crashes and closes. This all happened after the latest update. Pixel 5 Seek Compact Pro
