Rubbish!! ### 1/5 — Not a proper thermal camera *2024-10-28, version 1.1* This only picks up light not heat ### 1/5 — Not real thermal *2024-07-13, version 1.1* Not very useful for what I needed it for unfortunately 🫤 ### 1/5 — Literaly can’t do nothing, NOTHING at all without paying *2024-06-19, version 1.1* The typical stupid dude who bring app on App store without a single minimal option for the freeware. This app is literally a click bait for their paid version. ### 1/5 — you're crazy. If it's a paid program, why put it in a free program? *2024-04-01, version 1.1* you're crazy. If it's a paid program, why put it in a free program? ### 1/5 — Demands a paid subscription *2024-03-15, version 1.1* Really guys? So I could not get past the pro promotion screen. Then when I closed out, the app sends you bogus notifications. I could not even take this baby for a drive to check out the view from the lens. Nope, gotta sign up for their paid subscription first. Unless I missed something, which has happened before, I would pass this app on by. Now the developer(s) have their little switches inside my phone, ugh! They are not all motivated to give us cool fun apps, SOME are malicious and bitter and want nothing more than to sit back quietly and innocently as you download their app then methodically start pushing their buttons 6 months later to spy on you or get even for giving a negative review and deleting their app. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2024-02-09* Maybe I dont have the correct iPhone for it to work (12 mini) but this app is applying filters and not really evaluating the temperature. So i am not interested. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2024-02-02, version 1.1* Useless ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. *2024-01-15* It doesn’t work. I want to cancel the purchase ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Really works *2025-04-14, version 1.1* Love it ### 5/5 — First try *2025-01-21, version 1.1* And it’s great ### 5/5 — Thermal *2025-01-04, version 1.1* Truly awesome!! ### 5/5 — Review *2024-12-22, version 1.1* Awesome app ### 5/5 — It’s great *2024-12-06, version 1.1* Going to get the hang of it ### 5/5 — Predator worthy *2024-06-27, version 1.1* Beautiful! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-04-02* Great app love the fact it saved to phone ### 5/5 — Great can I can see dead people !!! *2024-02-21, version 1.1* Yay ### 5/5 — Fun *2023-11-18, version 1.1* Cool app easy to use ### 4/5 — Wow cryptic *2025-10-09, version 1.1* 10+ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
