Check your hotel room, vacation rental or changing room for hidden cameras in minutes. Spy Cameras uses your camera, flashlight, magnetic sensor and Wi-Fi to help you spot suspicious devices before you settle in. Made for travelers, guests and anyone who wants a quick privacy check when staying somewhere new. Features - Lens finder: turn on the flashlight and look for the small glint a camera lens reflects. - Infrared check: spot the night vision IR LEDs that many hidden cameras use in the dark. - Magnetic sensor: move your phone near objects to flag strong magnetic fields from hidden electronics. - Wi-Fi network scan: list the devices connected to the network you are on. Free plan: one quick scan per session. Premium: deep and unlimited scans. - Where to look guide: smoke detectors, clocks, chargers, vents, mirrors and other common hiding spots. - Light and dark mode. How it works 1. Dim the lights and open the lens finder. 2. Sweep the room slowly and watch for tiny reflections or glowing dots. 3. Run the magnetic and Wi-Fi checks on anything that looks out of place. 4. Inspect suspicious spots up close and contact your host, the hotel or local authorities if needed. Important: results are indicative, not a guarantee. Reflective surfaces, electronics and network devices can trigger false positives, and some cameras may not be detected. Always confirm with a physical inspection.

Don't vacuum the same spot twice. See your coverage in augmented reality. **THE PROBLEM** You vacuum a room and lose track of where you've been. Some spots get cleaned twice. Others get missed. **WHY YOUR MEMORY ISN'T ENOUGH** Trying to remember every spot wastes mental energy you could spend on things that matter. **THE SOLUTION** VacuumAR shows blue dust patches on your floor in augmented reality. Hold your phone in one hand, vacuum with the other. Aim at a patch and it disappears. A minimap shows your coverage at a glance. Simple. Visual. Free your mind for what matters.
