### 5/5 — Mag Pro

*2026-06-29, version 3.5*

Great App.

### 1/5 — Update sucks

*2026-03-29, version 3.5*

This was a great product.  New updates, now it doesn’t focus close up.  Double tap freezes pic, can’t go back.  Wish I had not updated, I lost a great app. :(

### 1/5 — Won’t work on 16 Pro

*2025-09-14, version 3.5*

i used this 5 years on iPhone 11 Pro but i switched to iPhone 16 Pro and it’s out of focus.
This is supposed to be the ad free version that costs money but it doesn’t work on 16 Pro.

### 5/5 — My New Set Of Eyes!

*2025-05-22, version 3.5*

I occasionally need my glasses when I have forgotten to bring them with me. This app has been a lifesaver for me. Don’t leave home without it!

### 5/5 — Use daily

*2024-08-01, version 3.5*

I'm a sharpener for the hair industry and have about 38,000 pictures on my phone. This app is probably used on a majority of them (maybe 10 years with zero problem). Easy to use also.  The only thing missing is video with this close-up resolution.
The pictures use very little data versus the standard camera on a phone, which is megabytes, making it easier to send them and post.
This app has been irreplaceable and with an added macro lens, there's not much that can hide. It's also fantastic for splinters. 
Lots of positive comments about the good pictures on Instagram taken with it. 
I'm very happy with it and will continue to use it. Thank you so much..

### 5/5 — Still the best!

*2024-06-25, version 3.5*

I’ve used this magnifying app for years and still really like its functionality and ease of use.

### 5/5 — Very helpful app

*2023-03-12, version 3.5*

I’ve used this app at work numerous time with perfect results. I work in a chemical lab on graveyard shift and my supervisor is never there because he works days but if I have an issue and need his help, all I do is use this app and take nice closeup pics of what I’m talking about and he knows exactly what I’m asking without even being there. I would never be able to do that with the regular camera on my phone. Well done. But would it be possible to allow us to choose which side of the screen to have the camera button on. I’m right handed and have something in my left hand to take a pic of and it’s very difficult to hold the phone and take a picture.

### 5/5 — Great app.

*2023-01-18, version 3.5*

Works as advertised and more as it comes into play every time need.

### 5/5 — Great for client photos

*2022-10-14, version 3.5*

I am an esthetician and love this app for taking pre and post client photos for my records.  I can zoom in and highlight problem areas easily allowing me to review treatment results.

### 5/5 — I would be lost without it

*2022-10-01, version 3.5*

I have used this app for ever it feels like, it is so handy for many different things.
