### 4/5 — Spy

*2024-09-14*

Love it seems real accurate

### 4/5 — Amazing gadgets

*2024-07-27*

I downloaded the app just out of curiosity. When I open it, I was really surprised to see a metal detector magnetic field detector Wi-Fi device checker. I’m leaving this review because I did feel like they put their heart and soul into this.  My only concern is that the app description says “data we used to track you“  is collected.   I’ve only recently learned exactly how much data is collected as an individual. I also learned how much data was monitored and collected by my company on my personal cell phone without permission.   so I’m just apprehensive to download a device to know if I’m being spied on when it says I’m being tracked.  it does allow me to turn off my location, but I have a hard time getting past quote tracking you. “

### 2/5 — DON’T SPY

*2024-07-04*

Im 'm sorry to say it doesn't work. It was detecting my dogs water bowl, a picture hanging on the wall, the cover of my notebook, a string that i use to hang my art on the wall and my scrunchie for my hair. It seems to scan anything but what it was designed for. I checked my phone to see if it was malfunctioning but my phone is fine. This is a wonderful device and what it was designed for and there's always room for improvement. Like anything else sometimes it works for some and sometimes it don’t. If there’s possibilities of it not working properly because of my phone please let me know because I would try your product again.

### 4/5 — So far so good!

*2024-06-30*

Just started using it and the feature for device checking and email checking has been very useful! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Don’t Spy

This is an excellent app for someone who is Security conscience and wants some protection in their life. Highly recommend this app to anyone.

### 5/5 — Great

*2024-06-23*

Awesome app

### 5/5 — Cam

The best I’ve used

### 3/5 — Found my microwave

*2023-08-24*

I mean it found my microwave oven I’ve been looking for that so long smh….so it works

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2022-08-22*

It just keeps stalling at 40 or 52. There’s no instructions and no explanation. It’s completely worthless.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2022-05-24*

Total waste of money

### 1/5 — Fake

*2024-08-25*

I drew a circle on a piece of paper and it said it’s a lens so don’t download it’s fake so I hope u know that by now ! 😡

### 1/5 — Detector

*2024-08-17*

Not really pleased with app. States camera and items checked and now. Also magnetic detector over the charts but it doesn’t really show you where on your vehicle this is??

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-07-12*

Don’t waste your money. Don’t believe them. They won’t detect any cameras, even the obvious ones that I set up to try this app’s effectiveness, I literally pointed the phone towards those cameras (with and without light) and it still didn’t detect anything.

### 1/5 — Is this just to make mentally ill people paranoid?

*2024-06-28*

It's giving positives where it makes 0 sense. Told me there was a camera in my foot, in an empty tissue box, flat surfaces that have no power etc. I know it's a free app so nothing lost nothing gained (data collection aside) but maaan.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2024-04-20*

The app doesn’t work.  The needle that’s supposed to point you in the direction it’s at is not even connected to the proximity dot, it’s on top of the meter like there’s a glitch issue, at least for me.  When I press start, it doesn’t load anything.  Complete waste of time.

### 1/5 — Not sure what it means by “ title” but here’s what I think of the app.

*2023-11-21*

It works, but your device has to be right on top of the microphone.     It says “ near” at about 5 or 6 inches away from it.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all.

*2023-06-02*

His doesn’t find my Ring camera, my MacBook camera, my IMac camera, or a Wyze camera. I have no idea what it does find, if anything at all. I checked to make sure each of these cameras were on and could see myself through each of them while the app still couldn’t find them. Someone could spy on me with any of those and watch me holding my phone right up to their camera trying to find them.  This is completely useless for me.

### 1/5 — Waste of Money

*2022-12-30, version 2.0.7*

It willLiterally pick up anything such as my oven my refrigerator any of the lights in my house anything that has electricity or current running through it, this is completely useless

### 1/5 — metal detector

*2022-11-19*

if you lose your radiator, speakers, telephone receivers or large metals it can find it for you.

### 1/5 — Cochonnerie

*2022-11-17*

Je veut être remboursé je comprend pas que Apple ne filtre pas les arnaqueur  qui nous vende leur application bidon

This is an application that everyone should have or try it at least it will be amazing what u can discover.I take this opportunity to thank the person and investor that put this powerful application that can help us stop wondering and be sure about the situation we living this era where everyone is interested and intrigued by others life but in anonymous way.
