Hidden Camera Room Check Checklist
The full 15-minute sweep as a tap-through list. Progress saves in your browser; nothing you tick is uploaded anywhere.
A complete hidden-camera room check has three passes: an arrival pass (listing disclosure, line-of-sight survey, WiFi scan), a physical inspection of the eight classic hiding spots, and an after-dark pass for infrared glow and lens reflections.
On arrival (5 min)
Physical inspection (5 min)
After dark (5 min)

Frequently asked questions
How long does the full checklist take?
About 15 minutes for a typical hotel room or one-bedroom rental: five on arrival, five for the physical inspection, five after dark. Larger properties scale roughly per room — prioritize bedrooms and bathrooms.
Does my progress save?
Yes — ticks are stored locally in your browser (nothing is uploaded), so you can check items off as you move through the room and come back later. Use Reset to start fresh for a new stay.
Can I print the checklist?
Yes, use the Print button (or your browser’s print function) — the page prints as a clean checklist with empty boxes.
