Meh

Can you add instructions for Microsoft teams?

Update?

This is a really useful and free app - especially for use in the classroom setting. I would LOVE to know if there will soon be an update for the Apple iPad Pro 2020 devices. I just purchased my new iPad and can no longer use this app, it is very disappointing as I am now kind of reliant on it! Fingers crossed for an update soon.

Not compatible with my iPad

I am so disappointed- the one app I need does not work on my gen 8 iPad! Will there be an update to make this work???

Works Great!

Love this new feature of Osmo. I used it during distance learning and it was extremely helpful! Can’t wait to try it in the classroom.

Works like a document camera

What a great idea! This is like having a document camera on m desk. And it is free, my kid already had the Osmo. Very helpful for online teaching.

Nice Try

I want to like this app because I see so much potential for using it. Unfortunately, when I tried to use it to show my student a worksheet that I wanted to write on, the worksheet was blurry. I hope the app will be updated to work a little better... maybe so the user can focus the camera? Thanks, Osmo, for trying to help us out quickly. Now please work on improving the app so it is actually useful for sharing documents with students.

Great idea... Doesn't work.

We are an OSMO family, have all the kits, and I have many in my classroom as well, so we love the brand. However, this app doesn't work as described. There isn't "screen" option when I click "share content".

Response from developer

Sorry to hear that you're having trouble with the Osmo Projector app! In some video conferencing softwares, the "share screen" option is only available on devices running iOS 11 or later. It's also possible that you may need to update the video conferencing app you are using to make this feature available. If you have additional questions in the meantime, our support team will be more than happy to assist you.

Give them a break

The team at osmo created this app in less than a week. There’s going to be minor things that you might not like. But be patient. I’m sure they will add more as this quarantine progresses.

Microphone option not available

Great app. Was very excited to record lesson and went to view the video but there was no sound. I went to app details and microphone permission never appears. Went to microphone settings and projector app is not an option to give permission to. Any ideas?

Works well, could be more versatile

This worked well for me, but I wish we could download a video of it! Not all students can watch live and we are expected to share for later viewing.
