TRY IT FREE Try it free: an 8-second preview on the IR camera and on the device scan, then decide. Four inspection methods you run yourself, with a sound and vibration alert for unusual readings. It is an aid to your own check, not a guarantee. HOW IT WORKS • IR / Reflection Camera — spot bright lens reflections that may hide a camera. • Magnetic Anomaly Detector — calibrates a baseline, then alerts on magnetic spikes near electronics. • Bluetooth Scanner — finds nearby wireless devices with live signal strength (hot/cold). • Network Scanner — lists devices on your Wi-Fi, like IP cameras and smart gadgets. KEY FEATURES • Instant sound + vibration alert • Live proximity meter — get closer, signal gets stronger • Magnetic alarm with baseline calibration • Scan history with a simple risk score • Step-by-step manual inspection guide • Works fully on-device — nothing is uploaded • No account, no sign-up PERFECT FOR Hotels, Airbnb & rentals, changing rooms, restrooms, offices, and anyone who values their privacy. PRIVACY FIRST No location required. No accounts, no servers — every scan runs entirely on your device. IMPORTANT This app is a privacy-inspection aid that uses your iPhone's sensors. No app can guarantee it will find every device — always combine scans with a careful manual check. PREMIUM Unlock every scanning tool (IR, magnetic, Bluetooth & network) and remove ads with Premium: a weekly, monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions are charged to your Apple Account and renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage them anytime in your Apple Account settings.
