Someone else's Wi-Fi. A rented flat. A hotel room you didn't choose. SpyFinder checks the places you can't see into — and tells you what's actually there. FOUR WAYS TO CHECK A ROOM Network scan Lists every device on the Wi-Fi around you, with its manufacturer and open ports. Cameras and DVRs announce themselves on ports that ordinary phones and laptops never use — SpyFinder knows the difference, so your own router doesn't get flagged as a threat. What changed since last time SpyFinder remembers the networks you check. Come back a week later and it tells you what's new — not just what's there. Name your devices once ("Living room TV"), and anything you don't recognise stands out immediately. Bluetooth radar Finds nearby Bluetooth devices, including trackers that broadcast no name at all, and estimates how close each one is. Walk around the room and watch the distance change. Magnetic detector Hidden electronics distort the magnetic field around them. SpyFinder measures the normal field where you're standing first, then reports what deviates from it — so a magnetic phone case doesn't set off a false alarm. Camera detector Lens glass reflects light straight back at its source. Sweep the room with the flashlight and a red filter, and reflections that don't belong become visible. AD BLOCKER FOR SAFARI Blocks ads and trackers across every site you browse. Keep a whitelist of sites you'd rather leave alone. HONEST BY DESIGN No sensor, no verdict. If your device has no magnetometer, SpyFinder says so instead of telling you everything is fine. Randomised addresses are labelled as such, not guessed at. A scan you can't trust is worse than no scan. Every scan stays in your history, so you can compare rooms and dates.
