Works great for what I need it for.

This app's find word feature is something I've always wanted to do with my phone's camera. 100 out of 10 stars!

With the Magnifier app, at zoom=1, at manual lens selection, at fixed shooting distance of about 143 mm: The short side of display covers 21 mm at UW lens, and 19 mm at W lens! So, almost the same! With the stock camera, in the same setup these are, respectively, 291 mm 137 mm. Also, on the Magnifier app, at W lens, at the same setup as above, that is physically sturdy, the short side of the image is tottering about 0.3 mm at about 0.5 sec frequency. Very useful app still. /GP10XL

I'm finding this more and more useful as I get older. I like the quick tile, but need something easier to get to, going to attach it to tap the back gesture

Awesome, thoughtfully designed app. Can we please get a full-screen toggle to temporarily remove all controls? Thanks for listening to our feedback.

it's a great little magnifier app. the only problem I have with it is that the color hue on the screen keeps oscillating between pink and blue. you never get a clear vision of what you're magnifying. it just keeps going back and forth strobing between pink and blue at a very slow rate. incredibly annoying!

Wow finally a useful, straightforward, GOOD app that wasn't forced upon me, but suggested. Incredible. Please google, more interactions like this. You simply capture what you want to see clearer, and the app enhances it to near crystal clear legibility.

Good app but I wish you would make this available for all Android devices, not just Pixel devices. Why can't you allow this app to be used on non Pixel devices?
