Download Magnifier 1 1.4 on Windows PC – 3.1 MB

This Magnifier app solves the problem if you are tired of trying reading labels with too small text. You do not need to carry a magnifying glass, just use your smartphone. You will be able to read the text clearly.

You easily control the magnification and the exposure. You can quickly freeze the image so that you can check it out, and save or share it. The magnification can be high enough (if your device supports it) to use it as a microscope or macro camera.

This magnifying glass app has two extra features, a loupe and a color (contrast) expander.

The loupe magnifies a small portion of the picture while the rest is not magnified. This may give a better overall orientation for example in a text. There is also the possibility to have the loupe surrounded by gradually changing magnification, so that details are not hidden below it.

The color (contrast) expander enhances the differences between the colors, which may help to reveal hidden structures, such as the symbols and text on bleached laundry care labels, watermarks, or whatever pale or bleached structures. The picture should have low contrast and be uniform in all parts in order for this feature to work, it cannot handle pictures with large color differences.

Key features:

✓ Magnifier.
- High magnification. This extraordinary magnifier can also be used as a microscope or macro camera, for example to watch structures on insect wings.
- The magnification is easily modified by pinching or using a slide bar.
- The magnification can be as high as the resolution of your device allows.
- Magnification, exposure, and focus controls.
- Replaces your magnifying glass, and does more.

✓ Freeze, save and share images.
- The same image processing functions as for the magnifier are available. This means that you can watch the picture more stably and investigate it by the image processing functions.
- Possible to freeze the image when it has reached focus.
- Easily share images with others, processed such that they see what you see with the magnifier.
- Save raw pictures on the disc, and watch them later.
- Easily navigate and magnify within an image using your fingers.

✓ Loupe mode.
- Used to get high magnification in a smaller area without loosing the overview of the whole picture.
- Also available for the frozen and saved images, and when using it as a microscope or macro camera.

✓ You can show the negative of the image, for the real time magnifier and for frozen and saved images. You can also show the image in black and white.

✓ Color (contrast) expander.
- Used to reveal hidden or pale structures, for example bleached laundry labels.
- Also available for the frozen and saved images, and when using it as a microscope or macro camera.

✓ LED flashlight. Easy to turn on/off.
