Go to app for viewing

I’ve tried fiddling with the camera and light but time and time again I find myself using the app. Whether it’s in a restaurant trying to read a menu in a darkened area or wrestling with timer lights. This works for me

Indispensable

This is one of those apps I wouldn't want to be without. I find myself using it several times a month when I can't quite make out something tiny or indistinct, whether it be text; or a small black speck I suspect may be an insect; or a map; or a thread pulled on some fabric; or a million other things I struggle to see clearly.

I like it

It works great for me i really like the tip calculator

Perfect for reading food labels!

And I love that I can take a pic of it and then blow it up even more. Great app!

Review

Excellent

Works like a champ!

Perfect when trying to read that instruction document included with your latest electronic purchase that was printed in a 1-point font.

Best App EVER!

This is one of my favorite apps and I use it several times a week and I tell everyone I know about it!

Yes, very helpful for this 40+ type

Small print, loose screws in one's specs ... all of that.

Nothing special

This app combines your phone's camera and flashlight, and a tip calculator into a single utility. The app has ads that you can get rid of by paying more.
Not worth it. Instead just take a picture of what you want to see (a menu, a label, etc) then view the picture, zooming in as necessary to read the print. That's all this app does anyway.

Careful

Even though it's a pay version doesn't mean you don't get ads. It will cost you another $1 to permanently remove ads. OK. Nothing special.

Also a mirror

This works well not just as a magnifier but also in reverse mode as a hand held mirror.

The Best Magnifier

Works great and, I especially love the slider zoom feature as well as the flashlight.

$1.99 and ads?

To get ads after paying $1.99 for this app? Will be requesting refund from Apple. Very greedy.

Extremely Useful and Well Conceived App

I've used a variety of magnifying apps over the years, but this one is by far the best. I was initially somewhat skeptical as to its utility, but was pleasantly surprised to find that it will become an indispensable app in my daily life. It is a very simple app, but the features it has are so well conceived and intuitive that it easily merits a five star rating. Well done!

Very useful

this magnifying glass app has replaced my mothers reading glasses really great app

Wonderful idea

This app is a great idea. It is like having reading glasses without buying them! It is very easy to use the magnifying glass for reading. It helps you read in the dark,and helps with small print reading as well. Overall a great app

Over 40 App is A Godsend.

My husband and I both have poor eyesight. The Over 40 magnifying glass App is a Godsend. We don't always remember to carry our reading glasses; but we always have our IPhone. This is really useful when we are in a restaurant struggling with the menu. It also has a tip calculator and a flashlight. Very highly recommended App!

Wow what an idea!

I had never thought of this before but if you need reading glasses then this is the app for you. It is a very easy to use magnifying glass for digital reading. Especially if you read in the dark this could be very helpful to you!
