A GEM of an app, only one request
This app is incredible. I’m already using the full paid version regularly. Great work to the developer. Got one big/issue. Another reviewer of this app also mentioned a feature not mirroring in video mode that does mirror in photo mode: Focus Magnifier. If the developer can get focus magnifier working in video mode, that would be so appreciated. Right now while filming on my Sony a6700, I need to look down at the tiny camera screen for checking focus with Focus Magnifier. I’d much prefer to be seeing that magnified focus mirrored in this app on my larger phone screen. Again, everything else feels so great. The app runs smooth everywhere else and I’m grateful for its existence.

Fumbling a massive opportunity
*FX3 user*
This app is so close to being a crucial tool for all filmmakers, and giving monitor companies a run for their money since we ALL have monitors (smartphones) in our pockets. Unfortunately, it is unreliable when trying to connect wirelessly. Especially when powering camera down, phone screen turning off, etc. if you need to quick re-connect for a fleeting moment, forget about it. You’re going to get frustrated and end up using the tiny flip on screen on camera. It’s also kind of laggy.
When plugged in wirelessly, great functionality.
Love all the monitoring tools it comes with. An extra star for the UI design.
Also, I wish it remembered your camera. I was shooting in public and it kept trying to auto connect to some other random person’s A74 nearby. The app should let you favorite your camera, or give priority. Auto connect didn’t help one bit.
Point is, these guys are missing a massive opportunity and sooner or later someone is going to come out with the end all external smartphone camera monitor app. Gonna try Sony’s that they just dropped. Hope it plays nicer and has a smoother end to end user experience than this.

It works with Iphone 15 and a7sii wired!
Previously, I thought it didnt work with the gap in tech, but the iphone 15 and a7sii can work if you have a native micro usb adapted to usb c, (and not a micro usb to usb c. It needs to be adapted)
