IRSignalTester

IR Signal Tester is a simple utility for testing infrared (IR) signals using your phone’s camera.
Check if a remote control is working, compare signal strength between remotes, or detect infrared light from IR LEDs — all in real time.
No ads, no fear-based claims, just a practical tool that works.

What the app does
Most infrared remotes and IR LEDs emit light that phone cameras can detect — even though your eyes can’t.
IR Signal Tester makes this visible and measurable.

Test TV, AC, and media remotes


Check if a remote is weak or failing


Compare signal strength between remotes


Detect infrared light sources and IR LEDs

Important note
IR Signal Tester detects infrared light signals, not hidden cameras or surveillance devices.
Results depend on camera hardware and lighting conditions.
