Really like this app theirs times the print is to dark or in proper lighting it's like having an extra pair of eyes. Menu's especially that print super yiny. Easy to use & doesn't eat your battery like some apps. Great tool to have especially when reading the smallest of print.

This app had a nasty prolonged serious starting trouble which the developer has conveniently ignored and hasn't looked into the bug which is causing starting trouble. In November 2024, it doesn't work at all. Always keep a real magnifying glass ready if the app doesn't start until next year. Application developers with half-baked knowledge and abysmally poor testing skills have successfully infiltrated Google PlayStore. Beware of their sham apps.

Just got so far very little ads which is a plus for me. After using It for a little bit I think I am going to really like this one. Compared to the one that looks close to but it's not. Theirs you can only use inside the phone . But your is much much better you can actually take a picture of what you are making large so you can see it. Also you can take a picture of the thing. Unless something changes I would highly recommend this app.way to go guy's.
