WiFi Scanner: Device Detector Stay aware of your surroundings. Device Detector turns your phone into a powerful scanning tool that helps you check for hidden cameras and suspicious devices wherever you go — hotels, rentals, gyms, restrooms, or any private space. Using a combination of wireless network analysis, Bluetooth detection, magnetic field sensing, and infrared scanning, the app gives you practical tools to feel more confident about your privacy. ▶ KEY FEATURES - Wi-Fi Network Scanner Scan your current Wi-Fi network to discover connected devices. The app identifies gadgets that could potentially be network cameras or other surveillance equipment sharing your connection. - Bluetooth Device Detection Detect nearby Bluetooth-enabled devices in your environment. Spot unfamiliar or unnamed devices that may warrant a closer look, especially in places where you expect privacy. - Magnetic Field Detector Leverage your phone's magnetometer to pick up on magnetic anomalies. Hidden cameras and electronic devices often contain small magnets or components that produce detectable magnetic signatures — particularly behind walls, mirrors, or inside everyday objects. - Infrared (IR) Detector Use your phone's camera to detect infrared light sources invisible to the naked eye. Many surveillance cameras rely on IR LEDs for night vision, and this mode helps you spot them even in complete darkness. ▶HOW TO USE 1. Pick a scan mode — Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Magnetic, or IR 2. Move your phone slowly around the room 3. Review flagged devices and signals 4. Tap any result for details ▶WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT All-in-one scanner — Four detection modes in a single app, no extra hardware needed Works anywhere — Hotels, Airbnb rentals, public restrooms, offices, fitting rooms, gyms Real-time feedback — Instant results as you scan, with clear visual and audio cues Simple interface — No technical knowledge required, just open and scan Travel essential — Lightweight tool you always have in your pocket when you need it most UNLIMITED ACCESS Upgrade to Premium to unlock all scanning modes, advanced detection features, and unlimited use with no restrictions.

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a live camera for your Nx Witness video system. RTScape streams your camera straight to an Nx server, where it appears as a camera that operators can watch, record and find on the map. It records on your device at the same time, or on its own when there's no server or no connection. When something happens, one tap saves the moment. Built for the field: security patrols, site inspections, events, deliveries, or anywhere a fixed camera can't reach. STREAM LIVE TO NX WITNESS • Sign in through Nx Cloud, or connect straight to an Nx server on your network. • Tap record and your camera is live. RTScape adds it to the system as a camera, named after your device. • Your GPS position travels with the stream, so the camera shows on the server's map. • If the network drops, RTScape reconnects by itself. • Choose resolution up to Full HD 1080p, frame rate, bitrate, and whether a slow network costs smoothness or sharpness. RECORD ON YOUR DEVICE • Save video with or without a server: stream and record together, or record on its own. • Recordings are kept in short segments within a storage quota you set; the oldest make room for the new. • Microphone modes: Scene keeps the sound around you, Voice reduces background noise and levels speech. MARK THE MOMENT • Tap Bookmark to save an event clip from 5 seconds before to 5 seconds after. • While streaming, it also adds a bookmark on the Nx server at that moment. • Event clips are kept apart from your other recordings, with their own limits. BROWSE AND PLAY BACK • Find any clip on a timeline: green for recordings, blue for event clips. • Show all recordings, or event clips only. • Playback runs from one clip to the next; swipe for the next or previous clip. • Turn your device sideways to see more of the day at once. • Share a clip by message or email, or delete it, right from the player. PINCH TO ZOOM • Zoom in with two fingers. The zoom applies at the camera, so the stream and the recording carry it too. KNOW WHY A STREAM WON'T CONNECT • Test Live tells you whether your network can carry a live stream (directly, through a relay, or not at all) and why. • Tools for IT staff probe the router and test your own STUN/TURN server. PLANS • Free trial: unlimited live streaming for 7 days, no payment details needed. • Free plan: 30 minutes of live streaming a day. • Premium: unlimited live streaming, as a one-time purchase. Recording, playback and the network test are free on every plan. WHAT YOU NEED • To stream: an Nx Cloud account, or the address and login of an Nx Witness server. Recording works without either. • Camera and microphone access. Location is optional, and is sent only to the Nx server you connect to. Nx Witness is a product of Network Optix.
