They showed that an iphone can pair to my camera with this app. When I tried to pair my action camera with my iphone but never worked. ### 1/5 — Not compatible with iOS *2024-03-28, version 1.4.5* Not working with iOS it crashes the moment wifi is connected to apeman ### 1/5 — A77 *2023-07-29, version 1.4.5* Every time I try to connect to my camera through the app it crashes. ### 1/5 — Paid 5 star reviews *2023-04-07, version 1.4.5* They actually pay someone to do 5 star reviews they even offered me I refused ### 1/5 — Apeman app *2023-01-30, version 1.4.5* App crashes Please fix…… ### 1/5 — Don’t *2022-12-26, version 1.4.5* You better off buying a laptop and using it like that, trying to use the clunky app is terrible, it’s only supported for iPhone, not iPad?? Trying to get a file off is super slow when it works, and when it doesn’t, we’ll it doesn’t, just says that I have no files on it. Also why is a action camera connected by WiFi?? Bluetooth would have been 100 times better for something like this. I wish i didn’t cheapen out on a apemen instead of a GoPro which has much better support ### 1/5 — Crashes! *2022-12-26, version 1.4.5* The app crashes when I connect it to my camera. ### 1/5 — Constant crashing *2022-10-15, version 1.4.5* Please fix this app! I have the a77 and it works fine until it try to connect it then it just crashes it’s not like I don’t have enough storage or anything! Others with the a77 have the same problem please fix this issue ### 1/5 — CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! *2022-09-30, version 1.4.5* The app crashes as soon as you try to open it. Instantly crashes as soon as you open the app and won’t do anything! Poor quality. This app use to work great until the last year! DEVS needs to re work this app and I need to just buy a Go Pro so I do t have to deal with this. ### 1/5 — Crash *2022-09-19, version 1.4.5* Pointless don’t buy apeman ### 1/5 — App Dnt even work *2022-09-08, version 1.4.5* I have the A77, once I connect to Wi-Fi, the app doesn’t even load on,it just shuts down what a let down ! ### 1/5 — A77 keeps crashing and no response from apeman support *2022-09-06, version 1.4.5* Really disappointed with the app keep as it does not work anymore and no response from apeman who are quick enough to take your money but not fix there faulty app for the A77 ### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY *2022-08-01, version 1.4.5* App crashes immediately on setup. Absolute joke. Disgrace that company is still allowed to trade ### 1/5 — Just Crashes *2022-04-23, version 1.4.5* I join the WiFi from the camera and the app stops. Every, single, time. Firmware (or Firware according to the app) needs updating on the camera apparently. Why not offer connectivity for all versions in this major version than only the very latest. I haven’t got my laptop so I can’t update it. Not exactly intuitive. ### 1/5 — Apeman is a joke *2022-01-21, version 1.4.5* This app sucks and the camera sucks. Their customer support sucks. ### 1/5 — Not good *2022-01-17, version 1.4.5* Every time I try to connect my camera it just kicks me out so I can not get to my photos and videos please fix this! ### 1/5 — crashes *2021-12-12, version 1.4.5* Worked perfectly fine for ages then suddenly it crashes every time I connect to my camera , have tries re installing , updates etc no better , crashes every time ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Do not buy it *2026-04-03, version 1.4.5* It is impossible to connect to the iPhone. The instructions are useless. Old style of Chinese products, very poor! I will ask the refund ### 1/5 — Absolutely useless *2025-07-20, version 1.4.5* Just bought an A77 camera to replace my GoPro hero session 5. App crashes as soon as you try and connect to the camera. Seems to have been like this for over 4 years and nothing has been done to fix it. I will be returning the camera for a full refund and getting another GoPro. You get what you pay for ### 1/5 — App crashes when connected *2025-02-26, version 1.4.5* App crashes when connected to camera and WiFi ### 1/5 — Kicks me off of the app as soon as I connect to camera *2025-02-23, version 1.4.5* Waste of time and storage ### 1/5 — OUTDATED! *2025-02-09, version 1.4.5* Be careful on the cameras you purchase. I purchased the A80. V3.1.0.1-A. That they no longer support. I recommend going GOPRO. You Get what you pay for! ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2024-12-26, version 1.4.5* I bought and Apeman camera for my sons birthday but when trying to download the app so we can edit some adventure videos and photos it keeps crashing. Can anyone advise us what we can do?? ### 1/5 — A77 is not working *2024-12-26, version 1.4.5* Got this for my birthday and I was so excited but when I did everything right it just started crashing every time I go on the app ### 1/5 — Fix a77 *2024-05-05, version 1.4.5* I did everything correctly and it said that that device was not right???? ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even have my model on there *2024-05-03, version 1.4.5* I have the model A70 and when it asks for me to select a model it doesn’t have the A70 to choose?? ### 1/5 — So Many Problems *2024-04-26, version 1.4.5* I’m not one to write “negative” reviews, but maybe it’ll spark some motivation to improve the app. I got an action cam to help me record my service prospect’s outings outings so that our trainer could see challenges and help us address them. The first time I used the app, when I tried to download a video, it was taking a long time. It was a 3 min clip and was taking over 5 min to try to download. It said not to close the app, or the download wouldn’t work. Since it was taking so long, my phone also tried to shut off the screen several times. So, I tapped to keep it awake. In the middle of the screen is the “cancel download” button. You guessed it, I hit cancel download accidentally when it was at 86% downloaded. I tried again. This time, the screen shut off from me not tapping it and the video file corrupted. Now, I couldn’t get the video at all, not even by redownloading. It also deletes the full video anytime the card hits “full” while you’re filming. So you can’t leave it running if there’s absolutely any possibility of it filling up. Even when none of those issues occur, I see “download failed” 10x more frequently than it working. I just want my videos to actually be usable 😭 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works great! *2021-06-23, version 1.4.2* I downloaded this app when I first got my Apeman 79 about 6 months ago, and it had so many issues that I ended up deleting it. Today I decided to give it another try, and it seems that the developers have done a really good job updating this app as everything is working the way it’s supposed to be. ### 5/5 — Works well *2020-07-12, version 1.2.3* So I got this cam for my birthday and I would like to say the app works fine! I guess... ### 5/5 — Does what you need easily *2020-07-10, version 1.2.3* I understand what people are talking about saying it crashes. This sometimes happened if you have an old unreliable phone or a device with not enough storage. It works well for me letting me download watch or film videos straight from my camera! ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-05-26, version 1.2.0* Easy to use, lovely design and just what we needed! ### 5/5 — Spot on *2020-02-28, version 1.0.8* Does everything you need from the app, save vids and pics straight to your phone ### 5/5 — Good *2019-11-21, version 1.0.5* This app interface is beautiful and practical. I am very good at enjoying the outdoors. ### 3/5 — Question *2021-12-06, version 1.4.5* Can u make a apeman dash cam plz ### 3/5 — Can’t connect to my iPhone XR 12 *2020-11-27, version 1.3.0* When I try to go to settings on the camera to turn it on can’t find it C420D I check every option but it doesn’t show the wifi icon in there so what’s going on???? ### 3/5 — SmartApp needs improvement *2020-08-08, version 1.3.0* The APP video/photo screen is black even though it does record video and take photos. The Smartphone App needs to have a Power On/Off feature with more App functionality. When I have the Action Camera mounted on the end of a 14’ Paddle Board it would be easier to have more functionality built into the Smartphone App. ### 2/5 — No. Just no. No. *2022-03-15, version 1.4.5* I bought this camera 2020 Christmas. Had no problems with it. I forgot about the app and camera for a while.. then I got inspired again, and tried. Dumb me forgot the camera number, then I found it, connected the camera wifi to it, BOOOM!!! Crash. Fix this please. I also saw another review on this, and they had the same camera version + problem. Fix this for A77. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
