## Review summary

TopInfrared’s Android app is free and feature-rich (2D editing, false color, temperature warnings, isotherm). It’s helpful for HVAC and insulation work, and often works well on some setups. However, multiple reviewers report serious reliability issues: device compatibility problems on newer/older devices, unstable connections, and display glitches such as upside-down images. Basic editing tools like rotation are missing, and exporting can crash or lose edits. Localization/Support also appears weak. Overall, powerful when functional, but plagued by instability and missing essentials.

### Pros

- Free app with a surprisingly feature-rich set, including 2D editing, false color, temperature warnings, and isotherm adjustments.
- Useful for real-world tasks like HVAC and home inspections.
- Generally works well on some setups and is easy to use.
- Valuable for field use and image sharing, with hardware support such as TS-004.

### Cons

- Device compatibility issues on Pixel 7 Pro and Motorola Edge 50 leading to launch/connect failures.
- Unstable connections that frequently drop or stall between phone and device.
- Display and orientation bugs (upside-down/inverted image; overlay of previous images).
- Missing basic editing features (no rotation) and exports that can crash or discard edits.
- Localization and support gaps (no German manual; slow or unresponsive support).
