Features & Capabilities

IR Remote Tester is an essential Chrome extension that allows users to test infrared remote controls and detect hidden IR devices through their mobile camera. By utilizing a specialized IR Camera Detector Filter, this tool reveals the otherwise invisible infrared light emitted by remotes or spy cameras.

If your remote isn’t working after a battery change, this app helps determine whether the issue lies with the remote or the device itself. Additionally, it serves as a hidden IR camera detector, enabling users to identify spy cameras that use infrared signals. Key features include TV remote testing, infrared transmitter tests, and an IR blaster check, making it a versatile utility for troubleshooting and security purposes.

IR Remote Tester is a simple and effective app for verifying if an infrared remote control is working by detecting IR signals through the phone camera.
