Crashing

Great app to be fair but for some reason it keeps crashing, i can’t enter the app which is strange.

My most favourite app

Never use this garbage

Never use this garbage. It won’t work with your iPhone. It won’t record sound and video simultaneously. What you recorded is totally garbage.

Can’t open the app properly

The first bad experience from this app is that it doesn’t open and it closes as soon as I open the app. My friend told me about this app and apparently today I installed it today and I tried many times to run the app but it closes itself, and I don’t know if the app is broken or something, but you guys have to update this.

Needs to be better…

It’s got some nice features, predominantly that it works with wireless mics such as DJI and displays the exposure numbers you need to see. Yet no shutter priority mode? Also, despite being updated for iPhone 18 pro, in auto mode it will leave the variable aperture open at 1.5 while having a ridiculously high shutter speed and if you lock any control it just switches to full manual. The stab is ok but not as good as other apps and to make it even nearly as good you have to turn the preview LUT off, meaning you’re seeing washed out log footage while filming. Hopefully updates will improve it. Particularly shutting down to F4 in auto to bring down shutter speed.
