I have a FLIR One Pro iphone thermal camera, and I’ve been scratching my head trying to find the “Lock Span” function in the app. You know, the one that makes the camera actually useful? Without it the display is a constantly changing disco light show and you can not use it to survey anything efficiently.

Turns out they simply removed the feature from the app, to encourage you to buy a new product, which still has the lock span feature enabled.

Needless to say, fuck that, I’ll be buying the CHINESE cheapass equivalent thermal camera next time.

    The strange thing is that I also have a FLIRone pro (Android version with USB-C in my case), but that one still has the scale lock feature. There’s also an alternative app by a 3rd party developer if I’m not mistaken.

      Yea buying the apple specific hardware version was also a big mistake. Much more difficult to roll back or sideload an app

        Thermal Camera for flir one.

        I just tested it again and it doesn’t work anymore on my phone. It also hasn’t been updated since 2017. YMMV though.
