Mirror ◎ Reviews

Every time you open Mirror, it pastes whatever you have on your clipboard, presumably to collect and sell the data. I think it's really, REALLY bad taste to steal personal data on top of a bombardment of adverts in an app that should just be part of iOS. I use it in a pinch, but I have it blocked from cell data and do my best to remember to disable WiFi before starting it. There's NO WAY I would EVER pay money to crooks like these developers. There's nothing in the privacy disclosures about it collecting you're personal data from the clipboard, and there's no legitimate reason for it to access the clipboard at all. There's nowhere to enter text. I'd expect this in the Google Play store, but I thought Apple was more concerned about their customers'privacy and security to let that get buy their screening process.

At first I was super excited about Mirror . Then, I went to use it and was very impressed with the Quality of the camera and the lighting , Then I started using it then there was all kinds of pop up ad’s every two to three minutes!! I couldn’t get my job ( eye brows ) done due to the pop up ads every two minutes it’s very annoying, it would’ve been nice if someone posted this information about Mirror. Then I wouldn’t have downloaded it, would’ve saved some time and effort this is absurd, absolutely ridiculous don’t waste your time because you’re not going to get what you want out of Mirror.

The light feature is great, like working with a lighted makeup this app, just smaller. The 2x and 4x aren’t quite as clear as I think they could be. This lack of clarity on the zoom features alone makes this Worth no more than $.99 or $1.99 at the absolute most!
. The ads! I understand to have a free version they need ads to help support the cost...BUT THEY HAVE GONE WAY TOO EXCESSIVE WITH THEM! a few ads here and there. Ok. But every minute or less is way too much. Lower the price from $2.99 and I may consider paying for for it, just out of principle I won’t pay. They intentionally try to force you into the paid version and that I find to be disgusting.
Lower the price or reduce the ads and I would consider paying for it as well as upping the rating.

While using the this app app, a pop-up asked me if I wanted to disable ads. Well, who wouldn't if it were so easy? So I clicked on yes, and within a couple of seconds it informed me that i had just paid a fee to disable ads! I didn't click on anything else to confirm, it just took my money, just like that! Poof!
So I wrote to Mirror to ask them to reverse this charge. I really don't care if there are ads when all you need the this app app for is to quickly check if there's food in your teeth! ... long story short, the charge came through, and Apple says it won't reverse it! What a giant rip off!!!
So consumer beware!!! You can bet I'm finding another this app app! This one is getting deleted. I feel like I was scammed!

If you download Mirror you had better plan to spend $3 if you actually want to use it. Never have I seen more annoying ads. First there is constantly an ad going at the top of Mirror . Even worse though are the pop ups that block the whole screen about every minute. You can’t simply dismiss most of these. You have to watch them before you can close them and some play sound and take 20 seconds before you can do so. Deleting Mirror and looking for another.

This apps description allows you to assume that Mirror acts like a this app. Instead of a normal this app however, you can “zoom in” for example; to accomplish putting your own makeup on, in detail and with precision, without needing an actual this app. However, Mirror is quite literally no different from using your camera app which automatically comes with your phone. Except, unlike Mirror your camera doesn’t allow you to zoom in on yourself. However, it’s much clearer, doesn’t randomly turn into obnoxious ads while acting as a this app and the amount of distortion caused by the screen being perfectly still. It kind of makes you wonder, why am I paying $2.99 just to remove ads from my “this app” when I never had any to begin with using my mobile camera app instead?

It’s like having a real this app and putting magazine ad pages taped on it from the outermost edges working in. But if I pay some more somebody can come over and make those bad ads go away. Funny how that’s not mentioned when you initially buy it.
Use your camera it’s basically the same thing minus the adds and the cost.
I hardly use it was feeling paranoid that morning and it was super early and super cold. I remember it being in winter. That’s the first time I bought it and used it until now. I must’ve known better coming to my senses.

Great tool MINUS 3 STARS for continuing to show promotions once paid version is purchased. If I paid the lifetime ownership fee, I should not have to click through user prompts promoting your other apps. Unethical - the bulk of users are most likely unpaid versions, and that is where you should be promoting. If you modify this ethical error, I will adjust the rating to 5 stars. If I have to hit extra buttons, it’s just as easy to use my camera and flip the view around which takes your product differentiation away. Respect customers who have purchased your product.

Mirror will be perfect for anyone who doesn’t own a this app already! My friend is the one who told me about this, when I was just using my horrible camera on my phone. So, after I downloaded it, I Fell in Love with it!! But there are some quarks ( idk if I spelled that right I’m sry and yea this is rlly how I type but for the review it’s nice lol). So the thing I slightly disliked from the start. Well, it’s kind of turning into Hate…… it’s that there is SO MANY ADS!! I mean, c’mon! An app to stare at yourself and you still get more ads then people in this world. The fact that I think we have to pay for it to block ads, like seriously?! So if you see this and you can fix this, please do. Thank you!

by Ok Dumb Dumb

I didn’t like it at 1st but once because it had a LOT of Ads but when I learned that I could pay the few dollars a 1 time fee to disable the Ads and should I get a new phone or erase the this app APP I can still recover it without paying another FEE. Also I love the features of having it the light on or off and I’m able to ZOOM IN up close on my face if need be. I highly recommend Mirror

No way I’m paying $3 for a very simple app unless I can get a decent sample of how it works. But that’s impossible because there’s just one ad after another. Loud, bright casino advertisements seemingly whenever I press a button or try to do anything. I don’t mind paying a fair price for good software, but this has not left a good impression the two times I’ve opened it. No thanks.

I got tired of the continual (CONTINUAL) ads, so I paid an additional $2.99 to have an ad-free app. The ads were still continual, But, then help was offered. I was told to go to settings, etc. and tap the Restore Purchase button. Then more detailed directions were given in case I did not see the Restore Purchase button. Luckily I did a screenshot of that laborious set of directions, though it is obviously not written by someone whose first language is English because the first sentence is “If you've purchased ads in the past." Hmmm. I just purchased Mirror less than a minute ago, have been bombarded by loud ads which have been difficult to delete. Does that mean that in purchasing an app which I was not told could be purchased WITHOUT ADS, they assume I wanted ads? Unacceptable.

Then inexplicably the ads disappeared. I hope they stay gone, or I will delete Mirror and ask Apple for a full refund of Mirror plus the cost of removing ads.

Love magnification on Mirror. I can’t see well but Mirror has the magnification I need to see if something is on my face before I go into a public area. I don’t like thinking a booger or something maybe hanging out my nose just enough that could be seen and be embarrassing for me I may not be able to see or tell it’s there. And the clarity is awesome. Thank you to the person or people that came up with Mirror. Ms. CD Bradley. 😀👌

At first I loved Mirror. I had it on my iPhone for the longest time. When I got my iPad I wanted Mirror on it as well. I love Mirror because I am visually impaired and this made it easier for me to find and slick back baby hairs add via Waze that I wouldn't be able to see with a regular this app.

I install Mirror onto my iPad through my apple account. I had already paid to have as removed. Yet removed from Mirror on my phone but not on my iPad. I tried to restart purchase but for some reason I couldn't do it. I tried contacting the developer with no success. I would have to pay another two dollars out of pocket.

You shouldn't have to pay for an app a second time when you have already paid for it and it is already listed on your account as paid. If I continue using Mirror I would have no choice but to re-purchase. It's very difficult for me to find the tiny X button to close pop up ads that surface every few minutes.

I added Mirror, then upgraded for $2.99 because I thought I would be making a good investment. Over a year later and I need a this app again - I see this little app again, I like the appearance and functionality, so I of course redownload it into my iPhone. I realize then that I purchased from before... And I'm able to restore my purchase just fine! This is by far the best this app app out rhe

I wanted to take a star off because you have to look right into the camera lens which is weird, but I just couldn’t. When you don’t have any kind of this app at all, this is SO handy. I can’t tell you the number of weird places I’ve been when I’ve needed a this app and there wasn’t one. I am a contact lens wearer and sometimes it slides off and you just need to see where the little bugger is on your eyeball...

Mirror is excellent! I use it weekly to set up the phone so that my Pilates instructor can see me and my mat during a Zoom Pilates class. Suddenly in trying to use the this app app to look at something, a home advisor ad came up. It kept coming up as I tried to use the this app. I deleted the home advisor app in hopes of being able to use my this app in the future. I sure hope this problem goes away so I can use the this app app again!!!!!!!!

I would give it five stars if it wasn’t for those stupid annoying adds which interrupt fairly often 😞. Too bad because the lights and magnification work well. Obviously it’s convenient because you don’t have to carry an extra this app but geez those relentless ads 😒. Finally was able to get rid of the ads by paying $2.99 for it but the Settings should have been easy to find and offered right away as an option.

I don’t carry a compact & if I did, I’d have to root around my bag ( any of them) to find it.
I can organize my purse but after a while, stuff moves! I have a big bright green comb that’s easy to find and a dry stick
lipstick ( can stay on under COVID Mask )in whatever zipper compartment the bag has, ESPECIALLY if it’s an outside compartment.
This this app is what it is. A clear this app I can pull up quickly if I think I need my hair’s messed up or I’m inside a safe place where I can take my mask off with other vaccinated people & I want to refresh my lip color quickly.
GOOD CLEAR this app & VERY HANDY !

I like Mirror, which does exactly what it says it will. I didn't think a this app would be that useful since the phone's camera allows you to see yourself, but Mirror gives you an accurate view with ambient light instead of a photo preview. I also discovered that, although the iPhone 8 camera is great considering its size and cost, it still distorts subjects to some degree; whatever's closest to the lens is slightly bigger than what's farther (a "fisheye" effect especially noticeable with noses in selfies/portraits). The this app app lets you take a screenshot that's virtually an exact copy of what you see. But mainly it's a handy tool that replaces bulkier ones. Thumbs up!

Sorry to say I have no idea how good Mirror is. With a near 5-star rating, it immediately jumped out as the best choice. But within what seemed like 10 seconds of turning it on, an audible commercial popped up causing me to quickly mute my phone in embarrassment. Then as I went back to the this app, another pop up took over the screen. So this time I decided to shut down Mirror once more and I think one of those fake “close me” X-boxes turned up, and when I clicked on it I was hit with yet another pop up add. I have since deleted Mirror , having never been able to truly gauge how well the this app app worked.

Never again.
