This app and associated thermal camera were excellent until the developer demanded that the user turn on the location and microphone permissions. Neither is necessary for the camera to function. Obviously the developer wants to mine data, without compensating the user. I suggest looking at a FLIR instead of this... unless FLIR tries the same tactic. Basically, I get put off by arrogant, high handed, cram it down my throat developers. If they change their app, I would change my rating. Thank you.

Update 9/16/20: They finally removed location as a required permission. Only thing required is storage now (at least for me), which is fine since they need to save pictures. Only been a few years that we've been asking for this. Thanks for FINALLY doing it. Once I use it a bit, I may raise my rating. Just tinkered enough to prove that location isn't required any more.

Temperatures are wildly off. Much higher than real temperatures (25C vs actual 18C in the room. It takes several minutes (10-15) for the temps to go down. If i shut the phone down and switch it on again, it's starts at high temps again. You cannot choose a range of temps. It always adjusting it. And the app cannot even take photos or videos. The button is there but pressing it leads to nothing. It used to work before but not anymore. Also, the USB connection is horrible.
