Description of Remote Camera Control via Air

The app for remote control of an iPhone/iPad camera using another iPhone/iPad. The two devices use peer-to-peer Wi-Fi, which allows the devices to communicate directly, even if they are not on the same Wi-Fi infrastructure network. This technology is used by AirPlay, AirDrop, etc. In other words, Internet access or a Wi-Fi router is NOT needed. The maximum distance at which a connection can be maintained between two devices is about 20 foot. The app allows you to select a camera (if the device has several cameras), manually configure the camera, including the frame rate. The frame rate of the device acting as a screen is also adjustable. By reducing the frame rate, you can reduce energy consumption and, therefore, battery life. This is especially important if you are using a very old iPhone/iPad with a weak battery as a screen. The app can work on iOS 12 and newer. This makes it possible to use old iPhones starting with the iPhone 5S and newer as a screen. IMPORTANT!!! Use the newest iPhone/iPad of the two as a camera. New devices prepare frames for sending MUCH more efficiently, with less power consumption and less heat generation. This is the reason for the very low maximum possible frame sending rate if an old device is used as a camera. The old device may even turn off due to overheating and display a corresponding message. If you still want to use the old device as a camera for long-term surveillance, then select the mode for shooting video and select a video format with a small frame size (for example, 360p) in the app settings. To take photos, select the photo mode for a short time. IMPORTANT!!! When using the app to inspect dirty, hard-to-reach areas (like the underbody of a car), put the iPhone case on and place the iPhone in a small (the size of the iPhone in the case) clear zip-lock bag. Use the thinnest bags as they are the most transparent. IMPORTANT!!! The inspected mechanisms should not be hot. For example, to damage an iPhone, it is enough to bring the iPhone a short distance to a heated exhaust pipe of a car. The air in the inspected volume should not be heated and should not contain substances or microorganisms that can harm a person or iPhone. The app can be used without a second device, for taking photos and videos with manual camera settings. Camera settings can be saved. The settings are saved to a file that is saved in the folder of this app, which can be opened using the built-in "Files" app. The settings file can be copied and transferred to another iPhone/iPad. After adding or replacing the settings file, the app must be restarted. When replacing the settings file with another file, the previous settings are deleted. If, when saving the settings, the exposure and white balance are in automatic mode, then the exposure and white balance are saved with fixed values, and when you select this setting, the automatic mode for exposure and white balance is disabled. If, when saving the settings, the automatic mode is disabled for exposure or white balance, then only the settings for which the automatic mode is disabled are saved. Settings are memorized when you touch the "Save settings" menu item, that is, BEFORE entering the name of the setting and touching the "Save" button. You can use emoji in the names of saved settings. In the list of saved settings, swipe the cell to the left to rename, delete or view the saved values. Touch and hold a cell to move the cell up or down.

Reviews of Remote Camera Control via Air

  • Great app and developer

    Great app and great developer. I put in a feature request and the developer added it to the app within two weeks.
  • Useful for head-mounted filming

    Edit: I previously had an issue with 4k/60fps and 1080/240fps crashing, but wrote to the developer and they immediately fixed it. Thanks so much for this app!

    I bought a head mount for my phone to film yo-yo tricks from a first-person view, but it can be hard to know if everything is framed correctly. I could mirror to a TV, but then you have to stand in front of a TV. You would think you could just mirror to an iPad but it isn’t possible with AirPlay. This lets me mirror just the camera very easily to my iPad and control which lens is used, the frame rate, exposure, start and stop recording, etc. This is surprisingly hard to find even with “pro” apps (the closest seems to be BlackmagicCam but my iPad is too old to run it).

    For nice-to-haves: It’d be cool if there was more options in how frames are sent, like auto-adjusting the frame sending rate, or a way to have it lower the resolution on just what is sent for higher fps viewing (but maybe it isn’t feasible to resize frames fast enough on-the-fly). Anyway, thanks for making such a useful app that is just trying to do one thing well!

    Developer Response

    Thank you for your feedback, error message and suggestions. In the version "1.1.1" of the app I fixed the crash of the app when starting to record 4k 60fps video (or 1080/240). I can not reproduce the delay in sending frames. Maybe you changed the frame sending rate? You wrote to me through the feedback form on my site. I sent you two messages to the email address you specified, but you probably did not receive my messages, please check your spam folder. I need more information to reproduce the delay in sending frames. I will definitely try to increase the maximum possible frame sending rate for new iPhones (like iPhone 14 Pro) in the next version of the app.

    I’m giving 4 stars right now only because it is a bit buggy at the moment. My biggest issue is that if I select 4k 60fps (or 1080/240) it immediately crashes when hitting the record button (even when another device isn’t connected). This is on an iPhone 14 Pro. The 240fps isn’t as big a deal, but I’d really like to be able to do 4k/60 if possible.

    Also if you change the resolution/fps a couple of times in a session, the screen device can start to lag way behind. I found closing the app on both devices and re-opening will fix this, so you probably want to pick this setting before starting a session.
