User Reviews

The reviews show a split experience: when it connects on supported devices, the app delivers clear images and is easy to use at a good value. However, many users report connectivity and black screen issues, device variability (phones vs tablets), and updates that break functionality or lack reliable support. Overall, compatibility is hit-or-miss and depends heavily on hardware.

Pros

Clear image and video quality on supported devices (e.g., Galaxy S24/S25 Ultra, Moto Razr 5G).
Easy to use with simple setup.
Affordable value: under $40 and a noticeable improvement over standalone borescopes.
Solid hardware integration and Klein Tools reputation; builds well.

Cons

Connectivity failures: camera not recognized or unable to connect, often showing a black screen.
Inconsistent device compatibility: works on some phones but not on tablets or other models.
Updates can break functionality or reduce features, with concerns about ongoing support.
Certain features (photo/video capture and saving options) sometimes do not work or crash the app.

sometimes it's difficult to see the video

Mi*****, 2026-07-20

camera footage will not show up on screen ( s26 ultra ) I've had this tool for a long time and it won't work properly on any modern phone from the last 5 years or more. the device it works on is a galaxy tablet that was made in 2015 with older USB connection. Klein needs to fix the software so it works with today's modern phones but judging by the reviews it's doubtful. it's too bad as the device itself is well made but pointless when software doesn't work.
