★★★★★
Works well. Does what it is supposed to. Had the set for 2 months and helps me see what's going on better. Sleeping with earplugs gives me compacted earwax and helps me know when to get things professionally cleaned out and how effective my ear candles are (they are and help me keep things cleaned out between doctor visits).
★★★★★
It works very good. I have only one little issue. Brightness settings don't work for me, slider moves, but brightness doesn't change and when I come back to settings slider is back to maximum
★★★★★
AWESOMELY DISGUSTING Experience... saw all this mucus in my family's ears-- YUCK!!! --- AND able to easily retrieve it.
★★★★★
Great app one issue... Low battery popup literally takes up the entire screen, say you have he bud in your ear, suddenly it pops up full screen which is dangerous, needs to be underneath the camera screen
★★☆☆☆
It's great, but why the hell would you use a pop-up that covers the entire viewpoint to say battery is low when the use has an object in their ear, and can no longer see the camera? Surely there's a much safer way to present this information?
★★☆☆☆
Worked well initially but while it connects perfectly, blue light comes on, everything indicates a connection the device just won't show the camera feed. It's essentially useless.
★★☆☆☆
Absolutely useless. App will not allow me to view the camera making it a waste of time. Frequently leaves me with a message saying there is no internet. This app is not optimized and doesn't work as described. NOT FIT FOR USE.
