Peace of mind in every room. You're staying somewhere new — an Airbnb, a hotel, a rental. Spot turns your iPhone into a privacy sweep that checks for hidden cameras, covert recorders, and secret trackers in seconds. FOUR DETECTION TOOLS, ONE TAP • Wi-Fi & Network Scanner Scans every device on the network you're connected to and flags cameras, recorders, and NVRs by manufacturer and open ports. If a camera is streaming with no password, Spot shows you exactly what it sees. • Infrared Camera Scan Night-vision cameras hide infrared LEDs that are invisible to your eye — but not to your phone's. Spot's guided dark-room scan helps you catch them glowing. • Magnetic Sweep Wave your phone near suspicious objects — smoke detectors, clocks, vents — to find the magnetic signatures of concealed electronics. • Tracker Sweep Detect unwanted AirTag, Tile, SmartTag, and Chipolo trackers that may be traveling with you. WHY SPOT • Built for travelers — fast, clear, no jargon. • Honest by design — Spot never fakes a detection. Real findings only. • Everything runs on your phone. Spot helps you check a space thoroughly. No app can guarantee it finds every concealed device, but Spot gives you every check a phone can really perform — in one place. Spot Pro unlocks the full sweep: live camera feeds, the complete device list, and all four detection tools. — SUBSCRIPTION — Spot Pro is an auto-renewable subscription (weekly or yearly). Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. It renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. Terms of Use: https://glyde-games-legal.vercel.app/spot/terms Privacy Policy: https://glyde-games-legal.vercel.app/spot/privacy
