Great visual aid. It 'clearly' serves its purpose - to bring things to greater visual clarity by magnification and/or by making things brighter. There is also image stabilization - VERY helpful. (But for the reviewer thinking about using this to help walk at night, this app probably won't help. Great idea though! 😃👍) This app will remain close at hand on my main screen! NOTE: There is a little icon at the bottom-left. This control has lots of useful additional settings (brightness, etc.).

Nice clean app with just the controls you need. Manual lighting control works great. The only problem I have, and it's pretty big(FIXED....see update below), is at certain zoom levels the app switches back and forth between different lenses and near impossible to get a clear image. The app NEEDS an option to lock the lens or pick the lens to prevent this! This is on P8Pro, likely affects others. Update!! Since the August 13 app update, Manual Lens control works great! Thank you coders!

This is (ahem) magificent. I'm glad to have it. With it, I can read fine print, or (on a Pixel 7 Pro) zoom across the room to read a sign on the wall in a busy pub ("Ah, *that's* what the specials are!"). I have it set up so two taps on the back of the phone open the magnifier, and I use it nearly every day.

I couldn't see the use vs just the camera, but played a bit and think I get it now. In a lit room it seemed the same. However, in the dark I could see things in this app that wouldn't be seen on camera without light or taking a photo then looking at it in Google photos (more files to delete, just to see/read something), since I can't use flashlight app w/camera. Might be useful just walking when it's so dark you can't see. Maybe; haven't tested that yet.🙂 Dark restaurant menu next. 🤞🏽

Great to see a magnifier app directly from Google. The contrast and flashlight adjustment settings are great. I also appreciate the ability to take a still image of something to view clearly without it saving to your device /Google Photos. However, I still find myself using the camera app / video mode + the screen magnifier for a more "stable" view of something I need to quickly see or read. (Pixel 6)

I'm glad Google finally made this and they need to make more apps for people with disabilities. But the image quality in this app is horrible. Unless your outside in sunlight the image quality when zoomed in is really bad. My other free magnifier app blows this one out of the water. But it's a start I suppose, as long as they improve on it and didn't just shove this out there just to say they have it.

I just downloaded this app and quickly tried it. In that short time, I have to say that it's the best magnifier I've used yet. It focuses quickly, the enhanced view is very nice, and I love the various colored contrasts like yellow on black, black and white or yellow/blue etc. making it easier to read. The flashlight works very well with this app also. It will be great for reading price tags, restaurant menus, grocery boxes and more. I am very happy with this app! Thank you Google!

Awesome app. Can not believe how much this magnifies...I can zoom in and see the strands that make the threads in my jeans. Nicely done, and does very well. Option to use your light or take pics also
