User reviews

Bad app

One of the worst apps a company could ever put out.

Cumbersome

One of the most cumbersome apps, compared with Arri, Nanlite and Aputure Astera is definitely the worst

Awful

This app is actually almost unusable and often literally unusable due to the app crashing on multiple different devices. App uses an INSANE amount of battery life when doing nothing phone or tablet quickly heat up literally more than any app I have. There are also bugs where connection drops out when very near or info displayed for fixture status is inaccurate or won’t update.

Eats battery

App is okay, but eats phone battery fast.

Stürzt dauernd ab.

Eigentlich ein gute idee aber leider im professionellen Einsatz nicht zu gebrauchen da sehr unzuverlässig. App friert dauernd ein oder sucht nach der Blutoothverdindung. Wir haben es mit verschiedenen Geräten (iPads, iPhones) probiert. Lässt sich leider auch nicht über die usb Buchse verbinden (nur zum Laden).
Das hört man auch von anderen Usern. Bitte liebe Entwickler*innen guckt doch mal ob das nicht besser geht.
