  • The app works, but no 48 megapixel

    Currently the only option for an external smart phone flash, and it does the job. but I do hope that there are plans to at least add compatibility with shooting in 48 megapixel mode
  • Profoto is the best!

    I cannot say thank you enough for keeping this app updated! You’re team is amazing for this!
  • iPhone 15 Pro max Support

    Thank you for keeping this app alive! I use your products daily. From my travels around the world to the studio your app and your products are superb!
  • but:( no 48meg

    Great app and I have all the lights, but the sad thing is I can not use the 48 megapixel feature. This makes the whole iPhone 14 max with this light a bit undervalued. In any case I hope the guys here at Profoto will see our pain and will help to deliver the product we all so desire.
  • No 48MP support!!??? Cmon!

    I got this app specifically for the 48MP iphone 14. Totally disappointed to find out after purchasing a Profoto flash that 48MP is not supported . Profoto?? What’s going on? They are usually on point with the latest and greatest.

    Hi Mynor Infraction, we're sorry to hear you're disappointed. Unfortunately iOS 16 is limiting us to support 48MP capture in the app. Let's hope this changes soon. Many thanks for your understanding, Yours, Profoto team.
  • So bad, so annoyed

    I can’t even with this. It’s a great tease to say it works with an iPhone but nah. Why can’t I get the flash on manual below 1.0 ? Why is it so buggy? Why does it keep doing weird things? Have you guys tried watching users with the app and tried to see how useless this is? I’m so frustrated
  • It works great with my Profoto strobes but lacks the 2x (48 mm) preset on the iPhone 14 pro.

    Feature update request. The native camera in the iPhone 14 Pro has 4 focal length presets. Profoto camera has only 3. The 1x lens on this camera has optical zoom to 2x. I can select 1x in Profoto Camera and spread my fingers on the screen to manually zoom to 2x (48 mm full frame equivalent) but that slows down composition. It would be a big help to have the “normal 50” 2x focal length as a preset like the native camera app does.

  • Nice when it works

    Not sure why I expect modern Profoto to offer experience worthy of their insane price tags but it’s pretty unfortunate they can’t get the basics of a camera app to work…

    ProfotoRAW format mode gives me an error every couple of captures saying the storage is full on my iPhone (not even close to true). When I try the jpeg format instead, I get corrupted jpegs.

    Pretty frustrating when I just spent $300 on a little led light advertised for phones and $2300 on a b10 plus also advertised to be able to use with phones.

  • Works w/ iPhone 14 Pro but…

    Hey it works with my iPhone 14 Pro Max but it’s missing a major feature of the new camera system - no 48MP RAW support (at this time). That’s a big oversight IMO. Like it or not, Profoto is a tech company that used to be a lighting company. I hope that more robust support for iPhone comes quickly. I’m one who does yearly iPhone updates for the camera since I create content with it professionally. When a new phone comes out, each day I don’t have camera support I loose a day of shooting with strobes.

    What would be really helpful, if Profotos team can’t keep pace, is to partner with a camera app developer like Lux to add C1 Plus support.

  • A great idea, badly bugging

    Can’t shoot in the app without it glitching out and auto firing. It worked for about 6 frames until it decided to fire whenever it wanted to. Cannot recommend.
