### 5/5 — Fantastic app for testing

*2026-08-14, version 2.0.0*

The best app for all features of your phone A++ Hugh Always to test before selling your phone

### 5/5 — Ok apart from light sensor

*2026-05-24, version 1.2.1*

Everything works great apart from light sensor, even though auto brightness enabled and controls brightness fine

### 5/5 — Crashes on iPod touch 6

*2026-05-04, version 1.2.1*

Crashes on start. Doesn’t open. But works great on my other devices so 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Light sensor test not functional

*2026-05-03, version 1.2.1*

It looks like the light sensor test fails, even with the stock display. I have tested on two working phones. Your app might need to be updated to support the latest iOS?

### 1/5 — Not great for an App you need to pay for

*2026-04-27*

I know, 99ct is not a lot and there are no ads or further in app purchases but I personally believe that even for 99ct the App could be more professional. Some buttons do not match the actual function when used on an iPad and the Icons are just iPhone parts from his gallery making this app look very unprofessional and feel sloppy. Now with iOS 18 and later also allowing such tests for free and with less bugs, this app serves very little purpose

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2026-03-27*

Such a useless app, doesn't do anything else you could test without it

### 4/5 — Vibration test not working on iPhone 16

*2026-03-22, version 1.2.1*

Not bad at all except the vibration test does not work on my iPhone 16.

### 4/5 — Light sensor test on iPhone 11

*2026-02-27, version 1.2.1*

Version 1.2.1 reports ‘no light sensor activity’ in the ‘light and proximity’ test on my iPhone 11 under IOS 26.3. I have auto brightness turned on and can observe the screen brightness slider in Control Centre automatically moving up and down as I move around in changing ambient light levels. 
Otherwise, a very useful tool.

### 1/5 — Hugh Jefferys is a cuck

*2026-02-13*

If you’re charging money for an app maybe make it work?? NFC test says “iOS version not supported” and Light sensor fails on every phone I’ve tested it on. But I can test it on other FREE apps. Shame

### 4/5 — NFC test

*2026-02-04*

Don’t work on my iPhone 14 running iOS 26.2.1 and my iPhone 8 with iOS 16.7.14. It says iOS version not supported
