Terms of Use
Last updated: 6 November 2026
These terms govern your use of the Sweep mobile application, published by Hugo Software. By using Sweep you accept them.
What Sweep is, and what it is not
Sweep is a scanning aid. It reports what it was able to observe during a sweep: Bluetooth devices that broadcast nearby, and devices it can reach on the Wi-Fi network you are connected to.
Sweep is not a guarantee, and it does not certify that any space is free of surveillance devices. You must understand the following limits before relying on it:
- A device that is switched off, has no battery, or is not transmitting cannot be detected.
- A camera wired directly to a recorder, not connected to any network, or connected to a different network from yours will not appear in the network scan.
- Many hotel and guest networks hide devices from each other, so a camera on such a network may not appear.
- A Bluetooth device that stays near you may simply belong to a person travelling the same way.
- An empty report is not proof that a room is clean.
Sweep deliberately omits the magnetometer-based "hidden camera detector" found in some competing apps, because a compass detects metal, not lenses.
Do not use Sweep as your only safeguard in a situation where your safety depends on the answer. If you believe you are being tracked or recorded without consent, contact your local authorities.
Lawful use
You agree to use Sweep only on networks and in places where you are entitled to do so: your own home and network, or a space you are lawfully occupying, such as a hotel room or rental you have booked. Scanning networks you have no right to access may be illegal where you live. You are responsible for how you use the app.
Free features and Sweep PRO
Sweeps, finding counts and the type of a device that stayed with you are free. A report with no findings is not locked.
From version 1.1.0, Sweep PRO is an optional auto-renewing subscription, offered weekly, yearly or monthly. It unlocks addresses and evidence, the full device list, PDF reports, saved reports and comparison, "Mine" labels, signal history and the guide to reading a result. The current price, billing period and any introductory offer are shown on the purchase screen and on Google Play in your currency before you confirm.
A subscription renews automatically until you cancel it. Cancel or change it at any time in Google Play, under Payments and subscriptions. After you cancel, Sweep PRO stays active until the end of the period you have paid for. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription. Reports you have already saved stay on your phone for you to read and delete after a subscription ends.
Versions before 1.1.0 sold a one-time, non-consumable unlock of the detailed report, with no recurring charge. Anyone who bought it keeps it, and can restore it from the app.
Purchases are processed by Google Play. Refunds are handled under Google Play's refund policy; we cannot process a refund on Google's behalf, but you are welcome to contact us if something went wrong.
No warranty
Sweep is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. Radio scanning depends on hardware, operating system restrictions, signal conditions and factors outside our control; results will vary between phones and environments.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Hugo Software is not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from use of, or inability to use, Sweep, including any loss arising from a device the app failed to detect. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
Changes
We may update these terms; the current version is always on this page.
