Mevo to the rescue
I have been looking and longing for a system whereby I can record myself and go live with my practical sewing demos spontaneously without having someone to control the cameras. I also wanted a system where I did not need to purchase and know how to use expensive cameras. I saw complicated and expensive setups and I was just overwhelmed. I wanted to teach my skill and not be bugged down with the tech. I knew that I was not the only one with this problem and that there must be a solution out there. Well I came across Mevo Start and the rest I history. I am loving it and the ability to use the app to switch cameras. The set up is easy and I also love the small but powerful cameras. Well done Mevo you saved the day.

Response from developer
Hey, this is amazing feedback! Thanks for being a Mevo customer and happy streaming!
Multi destination no support
It’s so annoying that this Multicam app does not support multi destination live streaming. When will this feature will be available?
Orientation Headache
First, this app is intended to be used in portrait mode. No biggie as I can rotate my iPad mount. But then when I set a crop and zoom, the app goes to landscape mode, so I have to rotate my iPad mount again; however, it's not even the normal iPad landscape mode because it's on the oposite side. So from standard landscape mode, to portrait, to landscape on the oposite side, to portrait again after the crop. It's pretty annoying to use. I personally prefer the Landscape Mode on the Mevo 2.5 app as I can easily tap to zoom right away on the window, without going into another window just to crop and zoom. I get the advantage on having the crop setting on a sub window, but please decide on one orientation mode. Don't let us keep rotating our iPad every time.
*20210919 Re: Thanks for fixing the orientation when cropping. That's better. But I wish we're able to add multiple crop points per camera and add it to our Asset list for easy switching later.
Also, please move Crop and Zoom to the very top of the list. I believe it's the most important and used option among the 4. Or maybe if we double-tap an asset, it would bring us to the Crop and Zoom window. That'd be quicker.
Also, please add a PIP preview of our live streaming/recording even when we're inside Crop and Zoom window as we follow a subject.

Great idea, unstable sometimes
We use three Mevo Cameras and either Studio 6 or this Multicam app. Sometimes it’s the frequent updates that cause instability. Sometimes it’s just something unknown in the system. But we find we get a solid streamed broadcast only half the time.
In the case of this app, notifications on my iPhone caused the stream to quit unexpectedly mid program. Unfortunately, with Vimeo you can’t just click “Go Live” and pick up where you left off. If you do you create a whole new event with a new url. And that’s a big headache. (Think changing/updating your broadcast’s URL’s on your website, app, and social media during your live program.) And the same problem if for some reason you broadcast for just a few seconds and the feed goes down… now you have to update all the links.
This app has a nice interface and it does connect to our 3 Mevo’s well (so long as app and Mevo camera firmware are all up to date.)
A major drawback is not being able to stream to multiple outlets at once (i.e Vimeo and Facebook). If you could create a Vimeo event from the app AND from the app tell the Vimeo event to send to other outlets limitations of an iOS device could probably be avoided. Alas no such option (yet?).
Good concept. Good start. Make it dependable. Help us get our content out to multiple outlets. That would be 5 stars.

Glitchy
Very glitchy app experience with network settings. Unable to connect two out of three cameras - purchased based on app and ease of use but tech difficulties seem to negate the stated value add.
A small step in the right direction, but…
Not useful to me until it supports Mevo mic. Also needs to allow RTMP streaming on a local network WITHOUT requiring an internet connection, just as Mevo 2 already does.
Amazing Tech
This is some of the most impressive tech in live video I have used in a long time. This Multicam setup is portable, easy to use, can be customized in a variety of different ways, and puts out great quality. Highly recommend.
Love it
The app is great and honestly I’m surprised by how stable it is. There’s a lot of features in the first version and I’m sure you will continue to add more.
Keep it up!
Keep it up!
Excited for new features
Been using this app for a while and i am loving the experience, can’t wait for new features to come out.
Not bad at all
The app is only 3 months old but works great.
Simple but I see the improvements.
Mevo team keep up the hard work. The new updates are helping and surprising me every Sunday mornings. Haha
