Terms of Use — Glint
Effective date: August 5, 2026
By using Glint ("the app") you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
What Glint can and cannot do
Glint cannot prove that a room is free of hidden cameras. No app can. It gives you four ways to look, and it tells you what each one found — but a negative result is not a guarantee.
Specifically:
- The network scan finds devices that are connected to the same Wi-Fi and currently awake. It cannot see a camera that records to an SD card, is switched off, is wired to a different network, or uses a mobile connection.
- The infrared detector depends on your iPhone's camera sensor, which filters infrared light. It can reveal strong emitters in a dark room; it will not reveal every camera, and it does nothing in daylight.
- The lens-glint finder relies on reflection. Glass, screens, polished metal and eyeglasses reflect too, and a camera behind a one-way mirror or a fabric grille may not reflect at all.
- The magnetometer detects changes in the magnetic field. Those changes indicate metal or electronics — screws, hinges, speakers, wiring — and not specifically a camera.
- The guided sweep is a checklist. Its value depends entirely on how carefully you carry it out.
Glint is a consumer tool, not a professional counter-surveillance service. If you have reason to believe you are being recorded unlawfully, contact local law enforcement.
Acceptable use
Glint is for checking spaces you are lawfully occupying — your home, a hotel room, a rental you have booked. Do not use it to interfere with security systems you do not own, to access networks without permission, or in any way that breaks the law where you are.
Subscriptions
Glint's network scan and magnetic sweep are free and require no subscription. Glint Pro unlocks the infrared detector, the lens-glint finder, unlimited guided sweeps and saved reports.
- Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
- Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
- You can manage and cancel subscriptions in your Apple Account settings after purchase.
- If a free trial is offered, any unused portion is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
Apple's standard End User License Agreement applies to your use of the app.
No warranty
Glint is provided "as is". We make no warranty that it will detect any particular device, or that a room you have checked is free of surveillance.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability arising from your use of Glint is limited to the amount you paid for it in the twelve months preceding the claim.
Changes
We may update these terms; continued use after an update constitutes acceptance.
