About this app

We’re back!
It’s been a while and we’ve been busy completely redesigning the Tools Mobile app with a new more modern look and feel, making it even easier to use. We didn’t stop there; the app is now compatible with a broader range of popular FLIR cameras.

FLIR Tools Mobile is an intuitive app for FLIR cameras, and professional thermographers can use an Android device to see live streaming video and capture snapshots from supported FLIR cameras.

With FLIR Tools Mobile the camera can be stationed in one area and operated wireless from another – highly useful for IR inspections of energized equipment or performing IR surveys in hard-to-reach locations and harsh working environments. Streaming video and remote access also gives decision makers and others on your team a valuable opportunity to observe and collaborate in the thermal imaging process.

Using FLIR Tools Mobile, you can do one or more of the following:

- Copy, move, delete and rename image files and folders.
- Import images from your infrared camera.
- Add, move and resize measurement tools on the image.
- Read out temperature measurements parameters.
- Remotely take snapshots while streaming from camera.
- Display an image’s GPS location on maps.
- Display image information, such as object parameters, text comments, file information, etc.
- Edit Notes for the IR images.
- Display and change level span.
- Change palette/color and image mode of the IR image.
- Change general settings (such as the temperature unit) in the app.
- Use Android share to send images to other applications.
- Generate a Quick Report PDF file based on the selected images.
- Send .jpg and .jpeg files from local storage to the app's Library.
- More functions will be added soon.

Ratings and reviews

Edit #2: FINALLY. I think I found out what the settings are that it needs to work. 1. WiFi the device is connected MUST be the same as the one you connect with. 2. You MUST grant it precise location access, BUT, location DOES NOT need to be on your device for it to work. 3. If you use a VPN, sadly the only way I found that works, besides turning the VPN off entirely, is to do 2 things. #1 Whitelist the Flir Tools app and #2. Go into settings & uncheck "block connections without VPN."

Just got the TG267. Seems like a nice device, but... The device won't connect by Bluetooth to FLIR Tools Mobile app. I downloaded the FLIR Tools Mobile 2019 app, and can connect by Bluetooth, but the 2019 app doesn't support livestream to record video. Please help. The ability to capture video was part of my decision to purchase this device. If this is corrected, I'll upgrade to 5 star review.

Connection to the camera (E8-XT in my case) works fine, but that's all. You can pull images from the cameras internal memory on you mobile device, but then what? The images are located in //Android/data/com.flir.tools/files/storage, a path no other app has access to and you cannot copy, move or save them anywhere else either. Folders that are created inside the app don't even exist on the file system. You can also take a remote snapshot. Good idea, but also entirely useless without a preview.

What's new

- Introducing a more powerful streaming experience where you can remotely control most features on selected premium cameras, so you can keep a safe distance to equipment. Control your camera using a digital joystick that behaves like the physical buttons on your camera, even including long-pressing. To get started, you first need to install the latest firmware (8.xx.xx or later) onto your FLIR camera. Learn more at flir.custhelp.com.
