User Reviews

Users report the Seek Thermal iOS app as unstable and poorly supported. The device often fails to recognize the camera or requires clunky USB-C/Lightning adapters, especially on newer iPhones. Crashes and black screens are common, and the UI is confusing with few features. Support is unresponsive and updates are infrequent. For non-professionals, it may still offer basic thermal imaging, but reliability on modern hardware is generally poor.
Pros
  • Photo and video capture of thermal images with multiple color palettes, including grayscale.
  • Useful for basic, non-professional tasks like simple heat-loss assessment.
  • Some backward compatibility on older iPhones, allowing limited use on legacy hardware.
Cons
  • Incompatibility with newer iPhones and USB-C adapters; camera recognition is unreliable on newer devices.
  • Frequent crashes, freezes, and black screen issues during use.
  • Poor and unresponsive support; little to no ongoing app updates or maintenance.
  • Clunky, confusing UI/UX with limited controls and no easy image overlay or advanced features.
  • Video training content can stall or fail to load inside the app.

It would be great if technology was no bad awful with newer iPhones ,this device is obsolete for just having some years on it update this for new iPhones

The app cannot find my SEEK compact. I also cannot load any informatinal videos to explain how the app works while inside of the app. Only on youtube. It is very slow and buggy, and I cannot get the app or the camera to function...BUYERS BEWARE.

Disappointed… I’ve contacted support for adapters and they just said to go to Amazon. Didn’t recommend any specific adapter. Bought 2 different sets. Neither worked… very disappointing to have an expensive dust collector that could be so incredibly useful.😠😠
