I need to get at my Magnifier. I do not want to see commercials! ### 3/5 — Advertisement blocking screen spoils what otherwise would be nice app *2026-07-12, version 2.3* The title says it all. A full screen advertisement blocks the screen and I haven’t found a good way to make it go away. After a good amount of time and after going out of and back to the app it eventually disappears. It wrecks liking the app. It addition, you are constantly asked to rate the app, again making it frustrating to use. I may be generous giving it a 3 star rating because these problems are unacceptable. ### 1/5 — Одна реклама. *2026-02-10* Сплошная реклама, толку ноль ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-01-30, version 2.3* It’s a great magnifying app. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2026-01-24, version 2.3* Freezes on gift, you cannot use the magnifier. It appears to be a scam to collect ad money. ### 1/5 — Naked images *2026-01-18, version 2.3* I opened the app to find naked women at the bottom of the screen. You should be ashamed. ### 5/5 — This app is incredible!!! *2026-01-15, version 2.3* This magnifying app is absolutely amazing!!! After trying the free version for about five minutes, it was immediately apparent that I would likely use use an all like this fairly frequently, as I often come across things that are too far most human eyes to see clearly… Like the tiny information laser etched on the back of a wrist watch, or—even tinier—the surface of a minuscule engraving on the inner circle of a ring… This app somehow manages to use the camera on your phone to its full potential. Great job devs!!! The app is just terrific!!! 👍 ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2026-01-14, version 2.3* This doesn’t give you access to flashlight unless you upgrade. I’ll be deleting it. A hassle on an iPad. ### 3/5 — Liked… but… *2026-01-12, version 2.3* Liked the app, initially - good features and control. But after a couple of uses an Apple Pay pre-authorization alert popped up warning me of a charge to an account I don’t have, and to call a number to unfreeze “something”. I suspected some form of malware snuck into the download. So I deleted the app and tried another app. I did like this app though, just not the malware. No harm done… that you know of! ### 1/5 — Ads! *2026-01-07, version 2.3* Too many ads tied to this app!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The ads! *2026-07-26, version 2.3* Functionality was good. I’ve used it for years. But now, every time I get the light on, work my phone down around the obstacles, and get what I need in frame, it goes to an ad that never permits dismissing. So I restart it. Same. It’s now completely impossible to use. ### 1/5 — Black screen *2026-07-14, version 2.3* It’s a black screen and I paid the fee. ### 1/5 — Lupa *2026-06-24, version 2.3* No se enfoca bien la lupa ### 1/5 — Worst Apo Ever *2026-06-13, version 2.3* On Android this same app is actually a magnifier. This one does nothing. Deleting. Don’t waste you time, and definitely don’t pay anything. ### 1/5 — This is Click Bait SCAM *2026-06-07, version 2.3* It’s Click Bait to advertise other Apps. There is NO Magnifying Glass. This is a SCAM!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Nothing special *2026-06-01, version 2.3* Doesn’t magnify properly ### 1/5 — App reviews *2026-05-16, version 2.3* Garbage app ### 1/5 — Жалею что купил *2026-04-03* Были надежды что добавят нормальный ползунок зумирования, но нет, очередное обновление только снижает качество картинки. Софт полезный, но интерфейс сделан максимально глупо и ущербно, пользоваться им одно раздражение. Лучше поищу аналог, от более толковых разработчиков. ### 1/5 — Did not work *2026-02-14, version 2.3* Kept showing ads ### 1/5 — Disruptive ads, with no way to close them! *2026-02-14, version 2.3* 2/13/26: Disruptive full screen ads make this app unusable. Deleting this trash. Previous review: Just updated the app to see the “improvements” you made. How hard can it be to do a flashlight and magnifying glass? It looks like any “improvements” were changes to ads and other irrelevant things like a “gift box”? Please! Otherwise, it’s still a decent flashlight and magnifying glass. I like the slide zoom. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Opinión *2026-08-11, version 2.3* Excelente ### 5/5 — Great tool *2026-07-25, version 2.3* recon ### 5/5 — Love❤️ *2026-07-09, version 2.3* Love the magnifying glass + flashlight it’s my 2 in 1 🙏🙌 ### 5/5 — Ok *2026-06-27, version 2.3* Ok ### 5/5 — ZdankoTZ *2026-06-12, version 2.3* Dobry i przydatny program ale stabilizator to mógłby być zadarto wiem i rozumiem chodzi o co ? sami sobie odpowiecie i Dziękuję ### 5/5 — Belvia J *2026-06-09, version 2.3* Great for putting on my makeup! ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2026-03-28, version 2.3* Great app quick easy to use works great ### 5/5 — Great *2026-03-18, version 2.3* Good ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-02-16, version 2.3* Great product ### 5/5 — ♥️ *2026-02-08* Спасибо, очень удобная лупа, можно делать фото.
