Instant mirror! Awesome! ### 5/5 — Great mirror app *2013-01-18* This is exactly what I was looking for. You open it and immediately is a mirror. The zoom, freeze, and flip features stay hidden until activated by touch gestures. Great simplistic design. Love it! ### 5/5 — Great *2012-10-18, version 5.1* Best mirror app, no app! ### 5/5 — Perfect *2012-10-14, version 5.1* A mirror app that really is just a mirror. Lovely and useful! ### 5/5 — Does what it says on the tin *2012-01-28, version 2.0* No more and no less. Those that score it low seem to expect it to do something that it doesn't claim to do. ### 5/5 — Great mirror *2011-12-18, version 2.0* The only mirror app which does exactly what it says on the tin and nothing else. Very good mirror. ### 5/5 — What a great mirror *2011-12-14, version 2.0* The only mirror app I have found that is actually a proper mirror. Great app. ### 5/5 — The simplest and best *2011-09-25, version 2.0* This app does what no other mirror app does: JUST be a mirror! No stupid frames, no photos, no effects, no buttons, no ads, no price! Not even a silly name or icon. It is pure function: you press the app, and instantly see your image full screen. Then you close it. Simple! I have tested numerous apps and none load as fast as this one. You press it, you see yourself. No loading. Less is more. This truly is the best mirror app available and I applaud its designers for having the vision to be nothing but a mirror. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Does absolutely nothing! *2015-02-15* Don't buy it ### 1/5 — Like the camera *2013-12-31* Stinks it just like the camera just u can't take a picture do not get it ### 1/5 — Mirror *2013-11-29* Stinks!! No better than on the camera ### 1/5 — Not a mirror *2013-08-29* Just an app that turns on your camera. You can do this with your camera. Deleted after first opening. Why can't we get an app that is a true mirror? ### 1/5 — This is not a real "mirror " *2013-07-28* This is just my front facing camera , not a mirror! If I wanted to use my camera , I would . Deleted it a minute after downloading . Grainy & blurry. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2012-02-08, version 3.0.0* You used the camera so it ties up 0.1 megabites of space so it is pointless ### 1/5 — Awful *2012-01-28, version 2.0* Does what a camera does !!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Why? *2012-01-17, version 2.0* How is looking at yourself with the camera an app? ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2012-01-01, version 2.0* It's pathetic if u download this app ur wasting ur time it's just. Camara so u want a mirror ???just click on ur camara and it's just like this u think it's gonna be a mirror but it's useless it's a good job it's free coz if it wasn't it would be a rippppppp off !!!!!! No stars but knave to rate atleesed 1 rrrr ### 4/5 — Uses front facing camera, works fine *2011-03-14* This works great. All you have to do is click on the mirror app icon, and it starts showing you what shows on the front-facing camera. It would be nice if it could zoom in, but this is fine as is, just as promised. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good mirror app *2015-11-05, version 6.2* Does what it says on the tin. This is a nice quick mirror app and is easier than opening the camera and switching to rear facing camera. Thank you developer for keeping this app updated to the latest iOS version this is a useful app to have on my iPhone. ### 5/5 — miss *2015-08-27* It does just what I wanted, provide a simple mirror to check my face and hair. No gimmicks. ### 5/5 — The best mirror app I *2013-12-23* Yes, it is similar to using the front camera, but with added features. The quality is not quite as good as the front camera on an iPhone 5s, but I suspect that's because the dev had to digitally zoom in to achieve a full-screen view. Consequently, your reflection is a little larger and more pixelated than when using the camera, but it is also full-screen with no annoying banners or buttons. You can swipe sideways to reverse the image, tap for a 2x zoom, and press/hold to pause. This app is really well designed and executed. The only thing I can think of to make it better is a white border option to act as a backlight. ### 5/5 — I like it! *2013-11-09* I like it very much! It is simple, this is just what I want. ### 5/5 — Love it *2013-09-30, version 6.0* The app is ah-mazing. ### 5/5 — What I wanted *2013-08-25, version 5.2* This is an app using the camera on the screen side of your phone and the screen to emulate a mirror and nothing else. Period. ### 5/5 — Mirror *2013-06-14* It does what is says with no ads. Although the gestures can get kind of hard to commit. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2013-06-12* Does one thing and does it well! Works great on the iPhone 5. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2013-05-19* I first tried the top mirror. What a mistake, its full of ads. This App is simple and clear. Well done! ### 5/5 — Does what it says *2013-05-10, version 5.2* Perfect simple mirror app with no fuss or ads. Ignore the undeserved low ratings from people who don't get it. This is a straightforward app that only does one job and does it well. Thanks! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
