Your rental might be watching.

Open Veilbreaker when you arrive and run a full sweep. The app scans WiFi networks for camera-manufacturer devices, detects Bluetooth signals from trackers and microphones, uses your phone camera to spot infrared LEDs in the dark, and measures electromagnetic field anomalies from hidden electronics. The entire process takes about three minutes. You'll also get a physical inspection checklist that tells you exactly where to look: smoke detectors, USB chargers, power outlets, picture frames, and air vents.

Yes. Most modern smartphones have the hardware needed for basic counter-surveillance. Your phone's camera sensor can detect infrared light that night-vision cameras emit. The magnetometer (compass sensor) can detect electromagnetic fields from powered electronics. WiFi and Bluetooth radios can identify suspicious devices on the network. Veilbreaker combines all five of these detection methods into a single three-minute sweep. It won't replace a $500 professional RF sweep, but it catches the vast majority of consumer-grade hidden cameras and trackers.

Veilbreaker offers five detection methods in a single app: WiFi network scanning, Bluetooth device detection, infrared camera mode, electromagnetic field scanning, and a guided physical inspection checklist. Two sensors (Bluetooth and EM field) are completely free. The Pro tier adds WiFi scanning, IR camera mode, and timestamped evidence reports suitable for disputes with property owners or law enforcement. Available on Google Play for Android devices.

Start with Veilbreaker's three-minute sweep: run the WiFi scan to flag devices from known camera manufacturers, use the Bluetooth scanner to detect hidden trackers, darken the room and use IR camera mode to spot night-vision LEDs, and sweep the room with the EM field detector to find electronics behind walls or inside objects. Pay special attention to the bathroom, alarm clock, smoke detector, TV area, and any USB chargers or power strips provided by the hotel. Veilbreaker's physical inspection guide walks you through every common hiding spot.

A 2024 survey found that 47% of Americans have discovered cameras in vacation rentals, up from 25% in 2023. There are over 11,000 voyeurism incidents reported annually in the US. Hidden cameras cost as little as $15 online and have pinhole lenses as small as 1.5mm, making them nearly impossible to detect with the naked eye. The problem is growing because the technology is getting cheaper and smaller while detection awareness remains low: 64% of Americans don't know how to check for hidden cameras.

Veilbreaker offers a permanent free tier that includes the Bluetooth scanner and electromagnetic field scanner, which are the two most essential detection tools. Pro ($6.99/month or $39.99/year, saving 52%) unlocks WiFi network scanning, IR camera mode, the full physical inspection guide, and timestamped evidence reports you can use when filing complaints or disputes. A professional in-person sweep costs $300 to $500 per visit; Veilbreaker Pro costs less than one month's coffee budget.
