Without this great app I could not have discerned the incredibly small letters. The flashlight illuminated the numbers wonderfully. - Jerome Clean little app that is a godsend when I can't find my cheeter glasses. Esp in a dark cafe with tiny type on the menu! @ Magnificent For the over 40 crowd with progressives when you reach the bottom of the lens and you still can make it out, this app comes to the rescue. Does exactly what it says. And quite well. -Jnazarimd @ Good for close up work Clear and quick macro for your camera. Easy to use and is perfect for close up work. @ Simple & Great This app is simple & works great. Have already used it to look at tiny screws on my glasses( which are hard to see when I have my glasses off to look at). Also great for finding that sliver that you can only feel. The sliding power level is a real plus. -Dang134 @ Must have App. If you need to write little texts or make a macro picture of something this app it's for you. Love it. Thank you for this app! I use it often. I'm always forgetting my glasses. This is so handy in reading labels, receipts when eating out, and the light is a bonus when in dim areas. The view is sharp and light is bright on the iPhone 5. Full screen with light. No wasted screen space. Good for reading menus in dim lit restaurants.
