Transform your iPhone into a thermal imaging camera. Infrared Camera applies real-time thermographic visual effects to your camera feed, letting you see the world in a whole new way.
SEE IN THE DARK
Enhanced image processing automatically brightens low-light scenes. Histogram equalization reveals details invisible to the naked eye, making this the perfect tool for exploring dark environments.
34 THERMAL & VISION FILTERS
Choose from 34 stunning filters organized in three categories. Classic thermal palettes (Iron, Fire, Arctic, Viridis, Lava, Magma, Neon, and more), plus 11 all-new Vision Modes — Predator, Starlight, Sonar, Thermal, Heatmap, Cyberpunk, and more. 4 free filters (Grayscale, Color, Hue, Starlight) let you get started right away.
VISION MODES (NEW)
Experience entirely new ways to see. Predator-style heat vision, Starlight night amplification, Sonar depth view, Retro night vision, UV and X-ray simulation, and more. Each mode transforms your camera into a specialized viewing instrument.
AI OBJECT DETECTION (Pro)
Real-time person and animal detection powered by Apple Vision framework. Bounding boxes overlay on the camera feed so you can spot people and animals even through thermal filters.
PHOTO & VIDEO CAPTURE
- Take photos with any filter applied in real time
- Record videos with thermal effects (Pro)
- Timelapse recording with customizable interval and FPS (Pro)
- Export in HEIF or JPEG with adjustable quality
- Pinch-to-zoom with up to 10x digital zoom
NIGHTBOOST NIGHT VISION
Turn on NightBoost mode for dramatically clearer low-light footage using CLAHE (adaptive contrast enhancement) technology. Upgrade to NightBoost+ (Pro) for the highest quality night vision with advanced CLAHE and motion-aware noise reduction.
POWERFUL TOOLS
- Before/After slider to compare original and filtered views
- Brightness adjustment with 32-level gamma control
- Noise reduction (temporal blending) for cleaner low-light images
- Auto and manual focus control
- Level guide for perfectly aligned shots
- Temperature scale bar display (Pro)
- Real-time histogram (Pro)
PHOTO LIBRARY FILTERS
Apply thermal filters to photos from your library. Swipe through filters, adjust brightness, compare with the original, and save your favorite look.
PRO FEATURES
Upgrade to Pro to unlock 30 additional filters, Vision Modes, AI detection, NightBoost+, video recording, timelapse, temperature scale, and histogram display.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
This app is not an infrared camera or temperature measurement device. It simulates thermographic visual effects using your device's standard camera. Do not use for medical, safety, or diagnostic purposes.
I thought I'd give this app a try, so I installed it. Oh, it installed and opened just fine.Problem was, in the course of taking one photo, I was visually and audibly assaulted by the ads. All three of them. Think for a moment... This is an app for taking photos in the dark, right? So why must I be bombarded with three full volume ads with white color background? Stupidest thing I've ever seen if I'm out at night taking pictures, chances are I want to move about quietly and not be blinded by my phones screen. If you must use ads in your app because you're simply not making enough money from the meta data you're collecting (I get it, you're greedy), then at the very least use some common sense when selecting the ads you show and have them be in dark mode or something. That's all. Oh! This app was on my phone for a total of 1 minute. It was deleted as fast as it installed
As a Curio Applet it's OK
ANAPXIA
Let's begin that the developer is extremely honest in his claims! The iPhone camera does not have any capacity to enhance/amplify light---at any spectrum, or as a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th generation IR scope. The developer explicitly stated that it's the algorithm that collates whatever light pixels the iPhone lens managed to capture and dumps them in a B&W image. If NO light is captured ditto for the algorithm... Tried it in the bathroom, with hallway light on and took about six shots, with the door at various stages (from almost closed, to wide open). Well the developer is thruthful! The regular image is almost black, while the B&W grainy image shows you what's there! (the resolution between a 1st Gen. Starlight scope (minus the green)USES? Ummm, don't know, other than taking a pic of the license plate of a suspect's car at night without being seen by the flash! CAUTION: For ALL of you 007 wannabes! The applet defaults in flash, so remember to turn it off or else... Bang! You are dead!CONCLUSION: I'll keep it; it might come up handy one day (umm... night). Com'on! It's free, so Thanks developer!
Won’t load after purchase

I liked it a little and purchased all features other than the removal of adds how ever it now won’t load anything the app appears but it’s as if there is no camera although cam works perfectly fine on its own and with other apps it’s buying it stopped it , I uninstalled and installed again but I have no option to even contact the developer for a refund. So
Does what it Should

The point of the app is to simply attempt to provide the effect that is produced when you are shooting IR film in an SLR analog camera--not to provide some magic app to shoot photos in the dark. The app works very well and provides similar results to what you would have shooting IR film with a red filter--and yes, that was always black and white negatives and prints.
What's New in v7.2
- Fixed an issue where the simulation disclaimer appeared on every launch instead of only once
- Improved photo save reliability and error handling
- Stability improvements and bug fixes
