Small print is everywhere. Good light rarely is.
The moments you need to see something tiny are usually the moments you have no magnifier, no reading glasses and bad light.
Labels and fine print
Dosage instructions, ingredient lists, expiry dates, serial numbers and contract clauses printed in type too small to read.
Late-night worries
A child’s sore ear, a splinter, a rash, a tick on the dog. Always at night, always in a dark room.
Things that need a closer look
Hallmarks on jewelry, mint marks on coins, solder joints, stitches, seeds, insects and anything else your eyes can’t resolve.
Open the app, point, zoom. That’s it.
No menus to learn. Everything is a gesture you already know.
Swipe or pinch to zoom
Swipe up anywhere on the screen or pinch to zoom in up to 40x. Tap the zoom badge to reset to 1x.
Hold the flashlight to set brightness
Tap the flashlight to switch it on. Press and hold, then slide to dim or brighten so glossy labels don’t glare.
Tap to capture, hold to record
Tap anywhere to focus and take a photo. Hold to record a video. Everything is saved to a LoupeLens album in Photos.
Built for the moment you need it
A magnifier, a light and a camera in one screen, designed to work with one hand.
Up to 40x zoom
Smooth camera zoom on every supported iPhone, far beyond what the Camera app offers for close-up reading.
Adjustable flashlight
The flashlight stays on while you zoom. Set the brightness low for shiny paper or high for dark corners.
Front camera with screen light
Switch to the front camera to check your own face, eyes or teeth. The screen turns white to light you up.
Photo and video capture
Capture what you see to compare later or send to a doctor, vet, or family member.
Works completely offline
No internet, no account, no sign-up. Open the app and it works, anywhere in the world.
Private by design
No ads, no analytics, no tracking. Your photos never leave your phone unless you share them.
