CamClue turns an uncertain room check into a calm, repeatable process. It brings independent clues together so you can see what deserves a closer look without treating one unfamiliar device, reflection, or signal as proof. CHECK MORE METHODICALLY โ€ข Review reachable devices and a limited set of relevant service responses on a Wiโ€‘Fi network you are authorized to inspect. โ€ข See nearby Bluetooth broadcasts and compare relative signal strength as you move. โ€ข Cross-check suspicious areas with guided lens-reflection, front-camera light-point, and calibrated magnetic-field checks. โ€ข Follow a 12-location checklist so common hiding places are less likely to be overlooked. โ€ข See a clear coverage summary, confirm or dismiss candidates, and export selected information when you choose. Network clues help you prioritize devices, sensor checks add another angle, and the physical checklist keeps the final decision in your hands. CAMCLUE PRO Pro adds device-level evidence details, a relative Bluetooth locator, trusted and suspicious labels, up to 30 locally stored scan summaries, and Room Map. On compatible LiDAR hardware, Room Map organizes room geometry and suggests sight lines and places for a methodical manual inspection. These suggestions are not camera detections. IMPORTANT LIMITS Results are clues for your review, not proof of a camera or a safety guarantee. Network checks can miss devices that are powered off, disconnected, router-isolated, recording only to local storage, using cellular service, or on another network. Optical and magnetic readings can also have ordinary causes. CamClue does not continuously monitor the network in the background. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Scans, camera frames, and results are processed on your iPhone. CamClue has no account, ads, or tracking and does not upload your content on its own. Selected content leaves the app only when you choose to share or export it. Apple handles purchases. Use CamClue lawfully and only in spaces and networks you are authorized to inspect. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS CamClue Pro is an auto-renewable subscription with weekly and yearly options. The local price shown in the App Store is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Eligible new yearly subscribers may receive a 3-day free trial. Cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Otherwise, the subscription renews automatically.

Vigil turns your phone into a five-channel sweep for hidden cameras, microphones and trackers. It is the check worth doing before you unpack in a hotel room, a holiday rental, a changing room or an office. FIVE WAYS TO FIND A CAMERA Infrared: night-vision cameras flood a dark room with light your eyes cannot see. The front camera can see it, and Vigil under-exposes the sensor until only the emitters are left. Lens glint: glass reflects light straight back at its source. Sweep with the torch and a lens answers with a small, hard, motionless spark. Magnetic: every camera worth hiding holds a magnet and a switching supply, both of which bend the local field. This is the only channel that finds a camera that is switched off. Wi-Fi: lists every device on the network you are on and flags the ones answering on the ports IP cameras stream over. Bluetooth: finds battery cameras, voice recorders and trackers that advertise themselves, and tells you when one is getting closer. WHERE TO LOOK Smoke detectors, air vents, alarm clocks, chargers, mirrors, TV bezels, power strips, air fresheners and decorative holes. Each mode explains what it is measuring and how to sweep properly. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Every scan runs on your device. No video is recorded, no network data leaves the phone, no account is needed and nothing is uploaded โ€” a privacy tool that phoned home would be a contradiction. Vigil raises suspicion, it does not prove anything. If you find something you cannot explain, stop, leave it in place and call the front desk or the police.
