Magnifying Glass With Light Reviews

by Kimmyt5025

The ads on the free version are so frustrating - u r constantly bombarded with them and it seems they "take" u to the advertisers website more often than not even when u don't click on to view. So ur flashlight goes out and u r redirected suspiciously to the ad website and loose use of the flashlight. It also is preset on mine to not turn on the flashlight if it open in the light. Odd as I don't remember this on another app I had. So I have to put my hand over it when I turn it on if I use it with lots of indoor light say to look for something in the back of a cabinet. Light is bright but I don't find instructions on use very clear for the other functions it offers so haven't used those.

MagnifyingGlassWithLight is truly invaluable during the course of normal everyday life. As we get older we walk around with reading glasses on our eyes and the top of our heads. MagnifyingGlassWithLight will change all of that. I no longer panic when I can’t see, I simply grab my phone and open MagnifyingGlassWithLight. You don’t always have your glasses (or you can’t easily find you twenty pairs) but we always have our phone with us.
Thank you for developing a truly magnificent and outstanding app, I consider the flashlight as the icing on this perfect cake. Thank you and great job!

I got this a week ago to read small print on a cleaning label. Very useful.
But now more valuable for health issues.
I was using Perrins product to rid of sun spots. I took magnified pictures to see how they looked at a deeper, closer look.
Then I discovered the light works to have a better CLOSER LOOK, picture. One area
is taking longer than spots that already cleared up. Looks crusty n red. Thinking I need a Dermatology opinion, plus I have documentation of slow healing concern.

Love MagnifyingGlassWithLight! It is powerful and comes in handy! Reading a menu in the low light with small fonts has always been a problem for me. Reading the small fonts on medications and other items were also an issue in the past! Not anymore with MagnifyingGlassWithLight!!!! It’s so useful and easy to use! If you don’t have the best eyesight or need a light, you’re gonna love MagnifyingGlassWithLight.

MagnifyingGlassWithLight is really wonderful. It has saved me so many times when I need to get the serial number and model number off the back of a piece of equipment in a crowded IT closet.
I also find it useful to get the tiny instructions off of some ridiculous packaging of products.
There really is nothing else that can do this. It's unique and has saved me many times.

Everyone is dealing with this pandemic in their own way. I started a new hobby, back yard prospecting, and MagnifyingGlassWithLight is an invaluable tool! I found it easy to manage and had amazing zoom quality!

I definitely recommend to any hobbyists, crafter, or anyone that needs a quick and easy tool, you always have it in your phone!!

To the designers, a camera feature would be great, it doesn’t appear to have that unless I missed something. But I use the freeze feature all the time and then screen shot for some amazing pics! Thanks!

I find that I frequently use MagnifyingGlassWithLight when I am trying to read something that is very small or I’m in a low light situation. I pull this out of my purse often at restaurants so I can read the menu. For those of us who still use maps, it’s handy to read the teeny letters on the maps. I definitely recommend it.

With its ability to resize both horizontally and vertically as well as shine a light on what you’re reading makes it virtually impossible to put something in front of it you can’t read. In the unlikely event it does happen, you simply take a photo of what you wish read and end your inability to read it with the technology already offered. Very impressive app and a must own!

I have early macular degeneration and bought this to help with small print, which it does , but is very handy for many other things. For example, I had a small splinter in my finger, which I could feel, but not see. My wife was also unable to see it, but with me working the phone and her the tweezers, there was no problem!
A really nice app to have.

Many times a week I need to look at something that is just beyond what I can really see as far as detail. Having extra light plus magnification with a camera allows me to take great pictures of tiny objects such as makers marks in jewelry dates on coins. Not only that I can see details in the fine print of anything I look at or read.

Getting older this comes in handy. But I really have to say there are some instances, for example reading the SN off the side of an LED bulb. Without MagnifyingGlassWithLight there would be no way for me to even read it, even with a magnifying glass. (Tiny faded print) but with MagnifyingGlassWithLight I can send a clear picture to the company for warranty information. Incredible.
Thank You

It really enlarges the print while maintaining clarity. The light helps immensely. My credit card has gray numbers on a gray background and without the magnifier/light combo, I would not be able to read the numbers off the cards. I find this indispensable reading labels in grocery stores.

MagnifyingGlassWithLight also has the option to change the magnification so there is less scrolling while reading print that only requires slight magnification

I love MagnifyingGlassWithLight. I use it all the time to read small print on my pills. So many generic pills are small white and round. They are very easy to get mixed up if you can’t read the imprint on them. My eyesight no matter if I just got new glasses just isn’t good enough to read that small print so I’m using MagnifyingGlassWithLight all the time to make sure I’m taking the right pills after they have been put into my weekly planner pill box. I don’t think I could go a day without MagnifyingGlassWithLight. Love it !!!!

This is a lifesaver at times, especially when you spill your whole billfold out accidentally, and it falls between the seat of your car and the console . Really hard place to retrieve your money, let alone “ see “ it. Also had someone following my granddaughter and I, we were in a area unbeknownst to us was “ commonplace “ for purse snatching , robberies, rapes, and sexual predators. Keeping my “ Mag light “ on bright throughout our 3 block radius of a walk because of my car breaking down , made us feel “ safer “ .

I love MagnifyingGlassWithLight. It does just what it promised and does it amazingly well. My senior eyesight really appreciate the ease and effectiveness of MagnifyingGlassWithLight. There are increasing numbers of things that I find difficult to read and it seems more and more instructions
are written as small as the most physically possible for the printer. Since I've got my phone in my pocket most of the time anyway it's a snap to pull out, open MagnifyingGlassWithLight and use it to read whatever it is I need to. Good work to whoever invented this. Deafly makes my life easier.

My elderly dad uses it for reading, and I use it to photograph the amazing tiny world out in the garden! The only issue I have is the button to take a picture is too small, it's hard to keep the phone steady when trying to hit it, and even a small movement can cause you to completely lose your view when at full magnification. But that's very small criticism for an amazing app! I've also shown it to people who do gunsmithing and electronics repair, as well as those in the legal cannabis industry, and they all love it!

by Procrastination11.....,

Can’t read the label. Can’t make out the 6 vs 8, p or d. This is a must have app. Now matter where you are and you are struggling to make out what are the directions say and how am I suppose to use this....no problem if you have MagnifyingGlassWithLight. Just take out your device and read away. You even have a light to assist if you have limited lighting. Did I mention that you can take a photo for later review and it goes into you photo roll where your pictures are saved. THE BEST!!! I have the free version. It works well for me.

MagnifyingGlassWithLight is surprisingly super good and free! I really didn’t expect much from it when I downloaded a handful of magnifying apps to search my plants for pests but this one is boss. Very clear image and love being able to adjust the light. There are other settings that I just came across I’ll have to check out. I love that it’s truly free and stupid ad banners are out of the way. My only complaint is it’s difficult to adjust one handed but so is my phone in general. I’m so impressed with the quality of MagnifyingGlassWithLight in free mode that I’m upgrading it for $1.99 a month.

I’m been using MagnifyingGlassWithLight for several years and it is terrific! Very easy to use, especially useful for situations where you are getting so close the image is starting to blur, or alternatively when you are trying to read the serial number off the back of an appliance. Or just to read the fine print when you forgot your glasses. And all kind of things in between. Even if you have expensive camera equipment, having this on your phone will come in useful. Get it. Free and no ads.

MagnifyingGlassWithLight does exactly what it says it does! The quality on the zoom is INSANE, and if you’ve used the zoom on the regular camera, you’ll see the difference incredibly. The quality is just amazing, and I’m using the free version!! Definitely recommend buying it. I’m working with coordinate graphs in geometry, and the lines are very small. MagnifyingGlassWithLight helped me see my points so much better. And the light works great too! If it’s too bright, you can adjust the brightness!

I thought MagnifyingGlassWithLight was going to make life easier. It kept getting in the way of my keyboard and when I moved it, it got in the way of me tapping on an app to open it, instead it kept opening its own controller. The final straw was when I was showing it to my friend who needs a magnifying glass and she asked to see if I could use it for the entire screen. Guess what? Yep, you can and it does a good job at that! It magnified the entire screen so much that I couldn't access my apps, nor could I scroll to access control panel. Not only that, I couldn't even swipe to turn the power off on my phone!!!

by Grateful Yser

I am legally blind and it is very difficult to see regular size print, writing, and most printed material.
This magnifier is greater magnification than any hand held magnifier I’ve purchased from my optometrist
Since it is on my phone it is always handy so I can read price tags, instructions and greeting cards while wearing my magnification glasses.
Thanks you so much for this awesome aid.

by Organizationally Challanged

Hands down this is the best magnifier I've ever used, from the old time hand held ones to the sheet magnifiers and everything in between. If there is some tiny printing I can't read or its dark and I need to read, this gets the job done!

And it takes pictures for me too?? Thank you thank you!!

How did I get along before MagnifyingGlassWithLight?

by Rudabudda

We discovered we can take incredible close up photos with MagnifyingGlassWithLight. We have been taking pictures of flowers, bugs and other interesting items. If you have MagnifyingGlassWithLight, try this. If you don’t have it, I encourage you to try it out. I did try to pro version to see if the pictures were better, but they weren’t.

by YeOldeFarmhouseFinds

I love MagnifyingGlassWithLight for taking sharp, clear pictures of tiny things but also I use it as a magnifying glass just to read jewelry inscriptions and such. My only, only complaint is that the photo button is on the left which makes it very difficult for right handlers to hold the phone in the right hand and reach the photo button at the same time.
