### 2/5 — 広告がうるさくて

*2018-10-22*

5秒待ちの広告が邪魔をして使う気が失せる。

### 2/5 — Too good to be true

*2018-09-23*

Doesn’t work outdoors at night. True night vision is based on thermal sensitivity beyond IPhone capabilities. Glad it was free.

### 1/5 — NOT impressed

*2018-09-21*

If you are thinking about buying this app and using it as a low light viewer, forget about it. If you can’t see what you are taking a photo or video of, your phone can’t either. I installed on a iPhone 7+ which does very well in low light anyway, and all this app does is give me green pics. Waste of money!

### 1/5 — Night Vision Crap

*2018-09-10*

It is a piece of garbage! I need a refund!

### 1/5 — Não funciona

### 1/5 — I’d like my money back

*2018-09-06*

App just kept crashing. Can’t even use it long enough to adjust the exposure but for the minute I did have running the picture wasn’t that great. Definitely not work the money. At all

### 1/5 — Not true night vision

*2018-08-25*

This app just applies a green shade to the pictures nothing more.
They created this app for advertising.
So the app name is fake.
Not recommended.

### 1/5 — Don't work in the dark.

*2018-08-16*

It's pitch black in the dark. It's not real night vision

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2018-07-30*

I can see the images in a rather dark condition but pointing the camera to the same scene and it showed absolutely nothing.  It’s a joke

### 1/5 — The worst app ever🙄

*2018-07-07*

So I downloaded this app to record me sleeping, cause why not? Yknow?? Anywho, when I opened the app I would not even be able to press a button and it would crash. How annoying right🙄 ? But then again the app said it fixed all the app crashes. I’m so confused🙄. Likeeeeee FIX YOUR APP AND THEN COME BACK TO ME🙄🤦🏻‍♀️. DO NOT, NOT, AND NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP !!!

### 1/5 — Nulle

*2018-06-17*

Application nulle, en l’absence de lumière, ou avec une lumière faible tune vous rien a l’écran, rien que des points verts pour faire semblant d’avoir capté quelque chose.
Merci de la supprimer du store

### 1/5 — WASTE OF MONEY

*2020-03-22*

### 1/5 — DOESNT WORK !!!  DONT BUY

### 1/5 — One star

*2020-01-15*

Not really work with my iPhone 11

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed

*2019-12-21*

Basically, this does not work and I really regret paid for it.

You can record 5 seconds video, but anything longer will not save the video.
Meaning your one time special moment video will not be save.

Very disappointed of this apps and should be taken out from IOS apps store.  So nobody will experience same disappointment.

Don’t lose your money and special memory by using this apps

### 1/5 — Cheated out of $4

*2019-10-05*

Apple should pull this devs app down! Doesn't work for video filter as advertised!!! The photo green filter does, then when you flip it to video it goes back to regular color, plus the image looks like total horse squeeze! Total scam!!! Don’t buy this app and Apple really needs to put a option in for people to get their money back!!

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work. I

😍😍😍😍😍

### 5/5 — Hai

*2018-08-02*

Super

### 5/5 — Все работает!

*2018-06-08*

Отличное приложение, досталось по акции бесплатно. Теперь мои глаза имеют в 2-3 раза большую чувствительность! Если навести дома в тень, то видно что в тени, там где глаз уже не различает. 
Но это не инфракрасная камера ночного видения! Соответственно в полной темноте ничего не увидите. Об этом прямо сказано в описание "low light - низкое освещение".

### 4/5 — Night vision

*2018-07-24, version 2.0*

Great working app really cool  loved it from begging

### 3/5 — Does not record for long periods of time

*2021-07-19*

I was trying to record my nocturnal seizures, and even though it showed it was recording all night. It didn’t show up at all later on. I have enough gigabytes on my iPad to do more video for more than 2 nights. Was disappointed.

### 3/5 — Works but crashes

*2019-05-06*

I bought this app to try and catch the person in my street that keeps keying my car at night. The video night vision is the only one that works in the App Store. It gives a reasonable colour picture with a lot more light and definition of the street. My basic iPhone 7 camera is totally useless in comparison. If I could just leave it running all night it would be perfect. Problem is it crashes at random times losing the video taken. Maximum time I’ve managed to run it is just under an hour. If you don’t mind saving it every 20 mins and restarting it then this is your thing. Real shame.

### 3/5 — Great for the money

*2019-04-21*

If you think you can turn your cell phone into a high end night vision camera I have some ocean front property in Phoenix. It does a good job of helping you see in the dark. One day you May see 👀 true value in it

### 3/5 — Possibly useful for photos

*2019-03-27*

Works ok, so far my internal night vision cAn beat the app but I can imagine it being helpful especially for taking a photo in the dark.

### 3/5 — Nice

*2018-12-04*

I’m

### 3/5 — Outstanding concept

*2018-07-15*

Still photo mode works fantastic; but video fails, or else it occasionally fiddles with portrait and landscape modes (on my iPhone 7plus) and then crashes the app. I was able to turn my phone sideways and shoot video, but I had to leave the app and go to the iPhone camera / gallery in order to play back the video. If you have problems with this app, stop trying to max out the brightness setting because that is was renders the app unstable. Looking forward to the day the developer refines the bugs out of this app.
