Especially for my eyes. ### 4/5 — Frozen *2020-03-08, version 1.0.3* My screen froze and I could not get it to work Had to uninstall So I would appreciate not having to pay for another P.S. now the free magnifier is frozen and won’t work ### 4/5 — Family Sharing *2020-02-01, version 1.0.3* I like the app a lot, but when I try to share with my husband they want him to pay for the app. That makes no sense. ### 5/5 — Magic eye *2019-12-06, version 1.0.3* First time to try this application and it is very nice to be able to see things closely on hand via phone . I encourage to have this but I would like a better close up on this existing app ### 5/5 — Missed placed reading glasses *2019-11-03, version 1.0.3* This magnifying app is always with me on my iPhone. Reading menus in restaurant’s, labels on Items to purchase, and as an artist helps with the details of my watercolors.

Upon opening, it was blank! Just a white screen. This author is 70 years old and, admittedly, not very tech savvy, but did I miss something? I want an explanation or refund ... 🤨! Tapconn ### 1/5 — Does not work. Period. *2020-06-29, version 1.0.3* Magnifier 10 does not function at all. A total rip-off ! ### 1/5 — Can’t use it keeps wanting a upgrade Useless *2020-06-28, version 1.0.3* Dont bother the interruptions are endless to upgrade. Awful ### 1/5 — Shame! *2020-06-12, version 1.0.3* Not utilizing new devices 2x camera , no need ### 2/5 — Trick the Consumer *2021-09-08, version 1.0.3* This app gives nine seconds of free magnifying time. After 9 seconds the app encourages you to upgrade - FOR A MODEST FEE. The magnifier is useful. I resent being manipulated but I paid the fee to upgrade. I just wish the app developer had been honest and straight-forward in the first place. ### 2/5 — There is no *2021-05-12, version 1.0.3* No options to cancel the subscription or is it a one time payment of 2.99 ? ### 3/5 — Electronics Repir *2019-11-10, version 1.0.3* Excelnt tools when you are reparing electronics device and when you want to be sure of the pin card connection, alo to read the serial numbers on boards ### 3/5 — Love this app. *2019-10-07, version 1.0.2* Unfortunately it keeps freezing up on me. I have to shut phone off and restart while in app to get it to work again!! This is the paid version it’s a real hassle to do that every time I try using the app. At first I really enjoyed this app until it started freezing on me!! ### 4/5 — Good stuff. *2022-04-21, version 1.0.3* Good Stuff ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Frances *2022-04-04, version 1.0.3* This is An awesome tool and it’s right at my fingertips thank you ### 5/5 — Good tool *2021-06-22, version 1.0.3* I have many kids with splinters , therefore this magnifying glass helps . ### 5/5 — Great tool *2021-05-02, version 1.0.3* It’s better than wearing reading glasses ### 5/5 — Great magnify *2021-02-04, version 1.0.3* I have a bad time to pull out the tiny splinter in my third finger. So, it prompt my mind to find the magnify app and I did. It’s great to see the bad splinter I pulled out with 10 times magnify helper. Believe or not, I’m 67 years old. Except it keep asking me UPGRADE, every time I click to open up the magnify app. What’s up with that? ### 5/5 — Magnifying App Pro *2020-11-29, version 1.0.3* Work easy and exceptionally well ### 5/5 — Stub finder *2020-09-04, version 1.0.3* It should be illegal so sell something like this. Only thing I found out was how much time was waster.. ### 5/5 — Works great *2020-07-20, version 1.0.3* It really takes up close pictures I was really surprised how good it did. I show pictures to people and ask him what do you think it is and they can’t tell. Then I tell him what it is and I can’t believe it’s like looking under a microscope. ### 5/5 — Great *2020-03-16, version 1.0.3* Happy great ### 5/5 — Love the zoom! *2020-03-02, version 1.0.3* One of my most used apps. ### 5/5 — Great for us old people! *2020-01-27, version 1.0.3* A good friend of of mine told me about this one night at a dark restaurant that had a tiny receipt. It was great to have the ability to magnify the charges and turn on the light. This one of my favorite and most useful app’s I have. I updated to the 10x so I could read anything on any tiny label. Thanks for making a much needed app! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
