User reviews

Users praise the app for its exceptional magnification capability, brightness/contrast adjustment, and clear macro photography. The flashlight feature and ad-free experience are also appreciated. However, common issues include focusing difficulties without moving the device, trouble locating saved photos, shutter delay causing mismatch in images, and limitations like inability to import photos from the gallery. Despite these drawbacks, many find it better than stock camera apps and useful for tasks such as inspecting coins, jewelry, and reading small text.

Pros

Provides excellent magnification and detail for close-up viewing, especially useful for coins, jewelry, and small text.
Allows adjustment of brightness and contrast, aiding in viewing reflective or challenging subjects.
Capable of capturing sharp, clear macro photographs with minimal need for post-editing.
No intrusive ads, offering a smooth, user-friendly experience.
Includes a flashlight feature that helps illuminate subjects for better viewing in low light.

Cons

Difficulty in focusing without moving the phone or object; autofocus issues especially with text or reflective surfaces.
Photos taken by the app are sometimes hard to locate or not saved to the standard gallery or photo apps.
Delay between pressing shutter and the image being recorded, leading to pictures that don't match the focused preview.
Lack of advanced controls like setting default zoom, flash, or exposure settings on startup.
Inability to import pictures from the phone's gallery for magnification, restricting use to photos taken within the app.

This app is fantastic when it comes to details, I use this magnifier camera to take picture of some of my coins, I am totally amazed but i do have a major issue that is probably with my lack of just knowing. Where do i find the picture that i take with this app. I am using a Samsung galaxy S10, after i topk the pictures i was able to look at i then went on to take 5 more but the just disappear and i need to use them. Can anyone tell me where to look, their not in photos or gallery??????

Three stars because I used it longer than others I've tried so it's definitely ok and did what I wanted. There's also no ads. But I eventually got frustrated enough to search again and so happy I did! I still recommend trying this one out first but if you're curious which I choose over it, search Magnifier&Microscope [cozy]. It's got some ads but I totally don't mind! You can even decide between banner ads or few seconds full screen ad that plays once. But I wanna give this app its credit!
