Show HN: Night Vision App for iPhone Now Offers Free Basic Features

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/night-vision-lidar-camera/id1668629667
4•darkce•1h ago
Big news! The basic features of Night Vision App are now completely free — only the advanced tools require a one-time purchase.

It used to be a paid app, but now the basic night vision preview is free for everyone. Pro features still require a one-time purchase. Thanks for your support!

Recent Updates:

1⃣ Fully optimized for iOS 26 with the new Liquid Glass design

2⃣ Enhanced night vision performance

The idea for Night Vision App actually came from a moment of curiosity. When I first got my iPhone 14 Pro Max, I noticed a mysterious little dot beneath the rear camera — the LiDAR sensor. I suddenly wondered: could it be used to see in the dark? If LiDAR could be used to map out a scene, maybe real night vision could become possible.

That’s how Night Vision App was born. It combines the iPhone’s LiDAR scanner and TrueDepth camera to create detailed low-light imaging — turning your phone into a professional-grade night vision device.

If you have an iPhone Pro model, I highly recommend giving it a try.

From the privacy page of the app developer

“ In addition, according to relevant laws, regulations and national standards, we may share, transfer, and publicly disclose personal information without your prior authorization and consent in the following situations:

Those directly related to national security and national defense security; Directly related to public safety, public health, and major public interests; Those directly related to criminal investigation, prosecution, trial and execution of judgments; In order to protect the life and property of the personal information subject or other individuals, but it is difficult to obtain the consent of the individual; Personal information subjects disclose personal information to the public on their own; Collect personal information from legally publicly disclosed information, such as legal news reports, government information disclosure and other channels.”

Under Chinese law everything is national security if the state asks for it.

The last sentence looks like they give themselves permission to collect as much information about there users as possible

In any case I can’t see any way they are compliant with GDPR.
