### 3/5 — I am mad (i’m not really mad. I’m just irritated)

*2025-11-08*

Right when I downloaded it and I went into stop motion studio stop motion studio vertical of the camera so I don’t know how I can fix it so please if this is just a bug from this or something that I did that I can’t fix. Please fix it.

### 3/5 — Look, it’s ok.

*2025-07-24*

I love the Stop Motion Studio app but this—this is not as good. It needs to be able to run with Bluetooth ‘cuz yeesh, it’s slow. I’ve read other reviews about the slowness but you can only use it via a strong wi-fi connection. Either way, it is still great for not having to touch my phone and move it every time I take a picture

### 2/5 — Come read this for honest review

*2024-08-27*

OK, so I honestly did not like it at all. You couldn’t take pictures on it. It was like a remote thing and it was just really bad when I soon as I got on it it wouldn’t let me do anything and it told me to download another app to be able to access this app and use it I would definitely not recommend this, I put a five star

### 2/5 — Удобно, но есть проблема

*2024-07-25*

Когда я подключаю с помощью этого приложения телефон к ноутбуку, то всё очень сильно тормозит. Исправьте пожалуйста, те у кого такая же проблема ставьте «Полезно»

### 3/5 — Pretty ok

*2024-03-22, version 12.2*

It is very useful and has made my stop motion a lot stronger and steadier but it’s a little bit slow

### 1/5 — Pleeease fix this!!!

*2023-01-15*

Pleas give us the possibility to control external cam via Kabel. Wifi always shows massive delay and its annoying as hell. Not really usable like this. 
But I love the stop motion App, its so simple but my telephone finally make sense again!!

### 4/5 — Good idea, but...

*2023-01-09*

I would love it if it was a remote for the app but it’s actually just the camera and you edit from a different device. Also it’s really glitchy and since we’re working in a room with no WiFi, it’s almost impossible to get it to work. It’d be really nice if it could work without WiFi, but I guess that’s my problem

### 1/5 — Bad

*2022-05-21, version 11.0.4*

Awful. Wouldn’t connect to my iPhone. Wan

### 1/5 — I mean.. Really?

*2022-04-03*

I’ve opened the app with stop motion and I’ve entered the https address and put it in and pressed connect and nothings happened!!!

### 2/5 — Idee Top, Umsetzung Flop

*2022-03-16*

Verbindet sich leider nicht.

### 3/5 — Eh

*2022-02-22*

It’s good but it keeps having errors taking pics

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible. Just terrible

*2026-03-22, version 25.10*

Doesn’t even connect properly, waste of time.

### 1/5 — Do NOT Download

*2026-03-19, version 25.10*

Could not find anything it told me to do. Have to pay stop motion pro.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-01-22, version 25.10*

I paid for the Stop Motion Studios, my son had a great time. This remote camera part is not working, would be great if it did.  Try iPad to iPad, iPad to phone.  Can’t connect.

### 1/5 — What is it used useful

*2026-01-11, version 25.10*

Junk

### 1/5 — 555

*2025-11-14, version 25.10*

It only is a camera for android phones

### 1/5 — Frustrating with no App Support!

*2025-09-08*

Connected my IPhone 13 to my daughter’s iPad all ok but despite the images showing as fine on her screen when we actually take a shot and during playback it is saved blurry. Tried all the settings we could think of and I have a current good quality router. Frustrating as the idea itself is brilliant. One star because it is not up to the standard we are used to using stop motion pro and app support says URL not supported.

### 1/5 — It’s

*2024-02-26*

I hate

### 1/5 — No WiFi?

*2024-01-08, version 12.2*

While I definitely have WiFi, this app is not able to find it. Just doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2024-01-02*

Sowohl die automatische Erkennung, als auch die Manuelle Verbindung via IP-Adressen-Eingabe funktioniert nicht.
Jetzt die Kommentare hier in den Bewertungen und im Internet-Foren gelesen und es scheint ein typisches Problem zu sein 🫣

### 1/5 — Broken?

*2023-05-06*

Tried everything but recent IOS updates seem to have broken the link between iPhone and iPad apps? Pls fix!!

### 5/5 — (Nearly) perfect

*2025-04-23*

All the bad reviews are fake, this works very well. My one request is to make the camera delay and shutter delay. Other that that, this is great.

### 5/5 — Sehr gut 🦖

*2025-02-10*

Ich habe bisher nur gute Erfahrungen damit gemacht.Kurzfilme lassen sich gut machen. Verbindung bei Bewegungen etwas ruckelnd ,fängt sich aber nach einer Sekunde.

### 5/5 — Parfait !

*2025-02-02*

L’app est super bien faite et se n’est pas compliqué de la connecter à L’app Stop Motion !

### 5/5 — Funktioniert prima,

*2024-05-13*

… und das ohne jeden Konfigurationsaufwand. Nie mehr ohne :)

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2023-11-25*

Do you people even understand what the app is for?

					STOP MOTION!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Good!

*2023-11-17, version 12.0*

I highly recommend this app to anyone who wants to use it for stop motion studio.if you want to use it for something dumb like tictoc forget it.

### 5/5 — Good

*2023-09-24*

Works, is easy to set up, but takes 3-4 seconds to show up on iPad. Setting it up was insanely easy. Btw the settings for lots of things are on the companion app.

### 5/5 — Works like a charm!

*2023-07-29*

I needed to be able to take pictures on stop motion studio pro from my computer and this is exactly what I need! I can do everything so much easier from my computer but using my phone camera!

### 5/5 — срочно добавить

*2022-02-24*

приложение сложновато реализовано много писать не буду но я долго грустил когда два устройства планшет и телефон не согли подружится друг с другом. для этого им нужен вай фай. срочно исправьте этот недочет они должны соединятся  самодостаточно разрабатывайте новый протокол связи. такая связь где третий лишний нам не нужна !!! решайте.

### 5/5 — There were issues but I figured them out.

*2022-02-22*

This is great. I set a phone in my project and trigger it from my iPad. The iPad allows me to see many things I’d miss on a phone screen.

I did experience the slowing down. Each frame taking up to 3-5 mins and that was unworkable. But I figured out it was as my home internet got busy. Consoles, cameras, Netflix…….. so how did I fix it?

I cut out relying on my homes Wi-Fi and everything on it. I connected my iPad direct to my phone via my phones hotspot. With no other devices on that “network” this works almost instantly.
