AppSwarm, Corp. (OTC:SWRM) today announced the release of Finx, a hidden camera detector and privacy protection app now available on the Apple App Store. The app addresses rising concerns about covert recording by enabling users to detect potential hidden cameras, suspicious devices, and unauthorized surveillance equipment in hotels, Airbnbs, rentals, offices, and other spaces.
Finx uses infrared (IR) analysis and electromagnetic signal detection to identify concealed recording devices. It also includes Bluetooth and Wi-Fi scanners that detect nearby Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices and map all devices on a local network, flagging suspicious or unknown connections. A device tracker provides real-time signal strength monitoring to help locate lost Bluetooth items or potential trackers. All scans run locally on-device with no data collection, no account required, and a strong emphasis on user security.
“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.”
Finx is available as a free download with optional in-app subscriptions for enhanced features. Users can download Finx from the Apple App Store. The app complements AppSwarm's growing portfolio of mobile applications, which includes AskOptima, an AI-powered search engine; Zombie Survival: Rise of the Undead Shooter; BARAI AI Cocktail Maker; Travel Safe | Guide; Health Note | CALMI; AniPet; and Smart Shop | Grocery.
The release of Finx underscores the increasing importance of personal privacy in an era of ubiquitous surveillance technology. With the rise of short-term rentals and shared workspaces, individuals face greater risks of unauthorized recording. Finx provides a practical, accessible solution that leverages the capabilities of everyday smartphones to mitigate these risks. The app's privacy-first design ensures that users can conduct scans without compromising their own data, aligning with broader consumer demand for transparent and secure digital tools.
