Five sensors. One tap. Know if a room is safe. Detective is a hidden camera detector for travellers, renters and anyone who needs to know a room is clean. Point your phone at the room, tap once, and it sweeps for the things a hidden camera cannot hide — the Wi-Fi it joins, the infrared light it emits, the magnetic field of its power supply, and the Bluetooth it broadcasts. No account. No sign-up. Scan data stays on your phone. FIVE CHECKS IN ONE SCAN • Wi-Fi devices — every device on the network, with unknown cameras flagged • Infrared dots — dim the room and catch the glow of an IR illuminator • Magnetic fields — probe solid walls for the electronics hiding behind them • Bluetooth signals — matched against a known camera fingerprint list • Mirror reflections — two-way mirror and lens-glare visual checklists A REPORT YOU CAN ACT ON Every flag shows the strength of the evidence behind it, so you can tell a real camera apart from a noisy router. Findings are sorted by risk — critical, medium, cleared — and every scan is scored out of 100. Clues, not verdicts. Detective tells you what it found and how sure it is. It does not tell you what to believe. FOUND SOMETHING? DO THIS NEXT A step-by-step guide tells you exactly what to do, in order: 1. Don't touch it or take it apart 2. Photograph and film it first 3. Call the police to secure the evidence 4. Tell the property. No private settlements. FEWER FALSE ALARMS An AI glare filter rules out the usual noise — lamps, remotes, screens and mirrors — before it reaches your report. Sensitivity is adjustable when you want to dig deeper. BUILT FOR REAL ROOMS • Hotel rooms, holiday rentals, hostels, changing rooms, offices, dorm rooms • A full-room scan runs in about 30 seconds • Works offline — nothing about your room is uploaded to a server • No account, no ads inside a scan Detective is a privacy checker, not a surveillance tool. It never records anyone, and it never connects to a camera it finds. Hidden camera detector. Spy camera finder. Room scanner. Whatever you call it — check the room before you settle in.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Detective at 98% against Spy Camera Detector's 0%. Spy Camera Detector's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 3.2) and ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Detective sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Spy Camera Detector sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Spy Camera Detector holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spy Camera Detector has 109 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 98% of Detective's written reviews are positive against 0% of Spy Camera Detector's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
