Thermal camera is hoax

Question

Thermal camera is hoax

I was a little disappointed when the thermal camera was not real. That was a big disappointment. They should consider a disclaimer. Now, I'm looking for reasons to ditch it. Believe me, there are plenty.

iPad 2, iOS 4.3.2

No, I did not. Just like 98% of purchasers. Don't play that corporate spin control with me. Products should be labeled to function as named. A better description would have been a Faux Thermal Camera.

I recommended this product to several buyers that are now ****** at me. I hope the next time you purchase an advertised product, you get home and realize it's a toy.

As someone who doesn't play corporate spin control but does read descriptions and reviews before spending my money, I'm curious as to where you get the 98% figure from. I'm also curious as to why you recommended this product before trying it yourself.

Well, since there's nothing built into the camera that even remotely could permit the lens to read thermally, how could an App make the iPad camera do something, it can't do. If anyone paid for it, buyer beware........
