Grabbed the product as a gift to myself when I was 19, I haven’t even gone through all the ear picks yet. I only use the app 2-4 times a month when I feel my ears getting bad. It’s over all a great app, a little confusing at first, I’m there are better apps, but this is what the instructions said use and it does its job.
Dunno how other people are havin issues, it’s a simple app made for the simplest of people, my 7 year old cousin has learned to use this app now after he saw me doing it.

Uhhh
I love this app and device but I am concerned that this app has not has any updates in over 2 years. I would like to be able to use app in horizontal
So simple after learning curve
Yes, remembering to change your WiFi to the Spade is a challenge, but after that this app works seamlessly for me, and the interface is simple and responsive enough to feel safe with a pick in my ear. Well done!

Spade
A complete and total waste. Calling it garbage would be too kind, as it’s much worse than that. Company should give 100% refunds to all who purchased and struggled to get it to work. It doesn’t work.
Doesn’t work any more just used few months
Worst product
Out of business?
Trying to buy parts. Website says everything out of stock.
App Stability
This product is slick and works well but the app is prone to crashing and could used some love. The video abruptly cut out on me a few times during use. That’s not ideal when you’re literally millimeters away from one wrong move damaging your hearing.
Feature request - I would love some way to connect this thing to my WiFi network so that I don’t have to set it as the access point on my phone every time I go to use it.

Stop making it so hard
It’s almost 2023….it should not be this hard to make a simple app work.
The camera
I can’t see my ear when the camera is on
And it is easier to get somebody to clean my ear then use the camera

Ear picker
The app is not working. I cannot use my ear picker.
Device no longer works
I don’t know what you guys did with the recent update, but the camera doesn’t work and the WiFi keeps telling me it can’t connect.
This is genuinely disappointing because when it was working, it was a neat little tool to clean your ears with.
Please get this fixed- otherwise the only thing this is good for is a miniature flashlight.

Dangerous
I wanna throw this thing in the trash. Literally none of the pieces stay in the device (no I am not pressing hard or scraping). Every single time I even attempt to use it the tiny part breaks off INTO MY EAR. It’s literally dangerous. Do not waste your money. I could say more because the app isn’t great either but seriously the device itself is kind of dangerous. I’m going to throw mine away.

Does the job
Worked right out of the box. The video feed is not quite as clear as I would like. Lots of hair in my ears makes seeing all the nooks and crannies difficult. Overall my ears feel much better after use and keeps me from going to the cotton swabs which are very bad. For users, don’t rush and don’t go too far. I keep a tissue with alcohol on it to catch the debris and wipe the tip each time.

Not the greatest
This device has potential but definitely wasn’t worth $106
Works Fine
Software and hardware works as intended and as described by the website and reviews (on a modern iPhone)
Spent $99 to find out q tips were working
Turns out my ears were already clean.
I would say this doesn’t allow you to see into your ears as far as I would have expected.

Great Product! Read for tech help w/ the app!
My first use of this product I pulled literally “the mother lode” of earwax out of my ears while my wife watched in horrified entertainment. My hearing was noticeably improved. It was AMAZING.
Tech help: Connect to the “Spade” Ad Hoc WiFi network that is broadcast from the device once you take the cap off as instructions indicate.
Upon FIRST LAUNCH of the Spade app, don’t breeze through the permission pop ups! Allow location while using the app and MOST IMPORTANTLY: Allow the device to discover other devices on your WiFi network. If you don’t allow this one, it WILL NOT WORK.
If you are a person who has breezed through the permission pop ups, uninstall the app, and re-install from the App Store. The permission pop ups will come up again when first launching the app.
If your camera has lag: Close the app completely. Don’t just go back to your Home Screen and re-open the app because this doesn’t restart the app. Also, power off your phone/tablet and power it back on when all else fails.
This device noticeably improved my hearing, and prevented a visit to the doctor. As a musician, this is invaluable. I hope others can experience the benefits. Thank you!

Love it!!!
I just got my Spade and I absolutely love it. The app worked perfect for me, it’s unfortunate that others are having issues with it. My Spade connected right away and I was able to immediately ((within a minute or less of opening the box) start cleaning out my ears. I didn’t use the picture/video option this time, but so far the app and device have been very easy to use for me. I have an iPhone, so not sure if the issues others are having are with other brands of phone or if they’re also having issues on their iPhone. For me everything worked great right out of the box.

It worked twice.
After the update it just stopped working. Faulty product, wish they could get their ducks in a row. The product concept is cool.
