SpySweep: Camera Detector

SpySweep helps you check unfamiliar rooms — hotel rooms, rentals, changing rooms, or offices — for signs of hidden cameras, using three assistive detection tools built into your phone.

🔍 LENS REFLECTION SCAN

Darken the room, turn on your flashlight, and slowly scan around using your phone's camera. Hidden camera lenses often reflect a small, sharp glint of light back at you — SpySweep highlights these bright points on screen so you don't miss them.

🧲 MAGNETIC FIELD SCAN

Many hidden cameras and wired devices contain small electronic components that can create tiny disturbances in the local magnetic field. SpySweep uses your phone's built-in magnetometer to track live magnetic field strength, calibrated to your room's normal background level, and warns you when it detects an unusual spike.

📶 NETWORK DEVICE SCAN

If a hidden camera is connected to WiFi (a common setup for spy cameras), it often shows up as a device on the local network. SpySweep scans your connected WiFi network and lists active devices, flagging unidentified ones so you can investigate further.

WHY SPYSWEEP?

• Three detection methods in one simple app — no extra hardware needed

• Clean, easy-to-read interface designed for quick checks

• Works fully on-device — your scans are never uploaded anywhere

• No login or account required — just open and scan

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ

SpySweep is an assistive tool, not a professional-grade detector. No phone app can guarantee 100% detection of hidden cameras — some devices may not reflect light noticeably, may not affect magnetic fields, or may not connect to WiFi. For high-stakes situations (legal investigations, professional security sweeps), please consult a licensed security professional with dedicated RF detection equipment.

SpySweep is intended to give you a quick, accessible way to check your surroundings and increase peace of mind — not as a substitute for professional security services.

Permissions used:

• Camera — for the Lens Reflection Scan
