About
Use your camera to magnify small text, see object details, or zoom in on faraway text like street signs or restaurant menus behind a service counter. Search for words before or after you take a picture to find what you need on a menu, a departure board, or anything containing text. Apply visual effects to make low contrast text more visible. In low light environments brightness is automatically adjusted. You can also take photos and zoom in as much as you need. Get started: 1. Download Magnifier from the Play Store. 2. (Optional) Set up Magnifier to easily open via Quick tap: a. Open your phone's Settings app. b. Go to System > Gestures > Quick tap. c. Turn on Use Quick tap. d. Choose open app. Next to "Open app," tap Settings. Then select Magnifier. e. To open Magnifier, tap twice on the back of your phone. Magnifier requires Pixel 5 or later model.

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

Good app but an update makes it crash when taking a still on Pixel 5a.

One of those simplistic luxuries that you don't realize you need, until you don't have it! I absolutely love it and use it on the daily.

I actually use it all the time. Even though you can zoom in on some websites, you can't always get the best. best focus. I love this magnifier app. thank you for making it! it even has great detail on zoom in. urine

Works better than any magnifying glass Ive ever seen. I do wish the adjustable brightness of the flashlight was available in the status bar menu of my pixel 9 pro but that isn't this apps fault that they showed me a better flashlight but only in app and not system set. Made by Google, well I guess it is their fault!

the good and bad... I choose Google apps to avoid the risks of third party apps and for the smooth integration with my pixel phones. unfortunately, after adding a button in my pull down quick setting tiles to make it easy to access, the tile fades out and stops working. Not sure why, but it makes quick access to the app a much slower process. - hence the bad.

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

It is hard to focus.l It magnifies stuff, but it is often blurry.
