AppSwarm releases Finx, a hidden camera detector app for iOS, addressing growing privacy concerns by enabling users to detect covert surveillance devices in hotels, Airbnbs, and other spaces.

AppSwarm, Corp. (OTC:SWRM) announced today the release of Finx, a privacy-focused app designed to detect hidden cameras and unauthorized surveillance devices. The app, now available on the Apple App Store, uses infrared analysis and electromagnetic signal detection to identify concealed recording equipment, addressing rising concerns about covert recording in accommodations and workplaces.
Finx leverages the iPhone's built-in sensors to scan for infrared reflections and electromagnetic anomalies that may indicate hidden cameras. It also includes Bluetooth and Wi-Fi scanners that detect nearby Bluetooth Low Energy devices and map all devices on a local network, flagging suspicious connections. The app's device tracker provides real-time signal strength monitoring to help locate lost Bluetooth items or potential trackers. All scans run locally on the device, with no data collection or account required, ensuring user privacy.
"Privacy is a fundamental right, and Finx gives people the tools to protect it wherever they go," said Christopher Bailey, CEO at AppSwarm. "Whether checking a hotel room, Airbnb, or office, Finx provides peace of mind with advanced yet easy-to-use detection technology."
The launch of Finx comes as incidents of hidden cameras in rental properties and public spaces have garnered media attention. According to a 2023 survey by the University of Chicago, nearly 16% of respondents reported finding a hidden camera in an Airbnb or hotel. Finx aims to provide a practical solution for travelers and privacy-conscious individuals.
Finx is available as a free download with optional in-app subscriptions for enhanced features. The app can be downloaded at the Apple App Store: Finx Hidden Camera Detector.
AppSwarm also highlighted its broader portfolio of apps, including AskOptima, an AI-powered search engine; Zombie Survival: Rise of the Undead Shooter, a first-person shooter game; BARAI AI Cocktail Maker, which generates beverage recipes; Travel Safe | Guide, a travel safety app; Health Note | CALMI, a wellness app; AniPet, an animal identification app; and Smart Shop | Grocery, a price comparison app for groceries. The company continues to expand its presence in the mobile app market, focusing on AI and privacy-focused solutions.
