This app was removed from Google Play Store on 2025-09-02

Features & Capabilities

Hidden Camera Detector-Antispy is a privacy protection tool that uses your phone's magnetometer sensor to detect hidden spy bugs, cameras, and electronic devices around you. By moving your phone in different surroundings, the app emits a beep when unusual magnetic fields are detected, indicating the presence of bugs or hidden electronic surveillance devices.

The app also features a calibration method that helps reset the sensor for accurate readings. Ideal for travelers and anyone concerned about privacy in hotels or public spaces, this free bug detector allows you to check areas manually after detecting magnetic signals, ensuring you stay secure from unauthorized recordings or spying.

User Reviews

Users find the Hidden Camera Detector app effective at identifying electronic and spy-like devices via magnetic field detection, offering peace of mind and ease of use. However, it suffers from a high number of intrusive ads, occasional false positives mistaking regular appliances for spy devices, ineffective infrared detection, and some stability issues. Despite these drawbacks, many users appreciate its core detection capabilities, especially for privacy concerns, while suggesting improvements like better ads management and enhanced functionality.

Pros

App can detect various electronic devices including phones, tablets, security cameras, microphones, and other signal-emitting devices.
Simple and easy to use interface praised by multiple users.
Effectively detects magnetic fields and electromagnetic anomalies which suggests presence of electronic devices.
Useful for users concerned about privacy and hidden spy devices, providing peace of mind.
Free to download and provides basic functionality without severe limitations.

Cons

App generates frequent and intrusive ads that disrupt user experience, including mandatory watch times before usage.
Infrared scanner functionality is ineffective or purely a blue filter, providing little to no real detection.
High false positive rate, misidentifying common household appliances (toaster, lamp, fridge) as spy devices.
App stability issues such as crashes reported on some devices during use.
Lacks advanced features like microphone detection despite claims, and compatibility issues with some phones.

Recent reviews

I love this app! One suggestion though, could you guys put the internet usage rate beside the device on the network? Or in other words, tell us how many ms a device is using on the internet to find the source of the lag. If possible, this would be a fantastic app. Thank you, James Wiltshire

Some, of these reviews.... LOL. People are like, "My toaster isn't a spot device. 🤪 My radio isn't a camera. 🤪Why is this app saying they are? 🤪" 🙄🙄🤣😂 Jesus, people... And you have the app a low score because of this? The app does exactly what it is supposed to do: It detects anomalous electro-magnetic waves. It tells you when there is an electronic device nearby (especially if they are emitting any kind of signal.). It's up to you to determine what the device actually is
