## What is Camera Remote Control App?

Download the app on two iOS devices and establish a connection. Choose which device will be used as a camera and the other one will automatically switch to remote control mode. 

Place the device in camera mode somewhere, so that the camera will be facing you (and your friends). Take your time to prepare for an amazing photo session. 

The remote control offers the following options: 
• take a single photo
• take a single photo after a delay (1,3,5,10 seconds)
• take a set of photos separated by a few seconds delay (in order to change pose/style)
• switch cameras 
• turn sounds on/off 
• turn flash on/off 
• switch modes 
• enable photo saving on both devices

The automatic mode (START SET button) is a great feature that gives you the opportunity to get a couple of photos separated by a pause. It makes it much easier to have multiple photos taken in one session instead of running back and forth to the phone to reset the countdown timer (as in the Camera app). 

We are frequently updating the app and adding new features and improvements!

## Key features

- Remote photo capture
- Customizable photo delays
- Switch between front/rear cameras

### 1/5 — Do t buy!

*2026-08-18*

This is absolutely the dumbest app that is completely useless that turns your 13 inch iPad into a giant button when you don't even need it it's supposed to have live view but it doesn't so it makes no point in setting up a camera somewhere where you can't see what's in it

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-09-18, version 2.8*

App does not work and no one helped me fix it, I messaged them through the app. iPhones 11 and 16.

### 1/5 — No picture on controlling device

*2025-08-31*

This is absolutely ridiculous. I can take a photo remotely. But I can’t see what I’m taking a picture of on my controlling device.  Total waste of money.

### 1/5 — DOES NOT SHOW LIVE CAMERA VIEW!

*2025-01-04*

Absolutely pointless! I just wanted a bigger screen version of the Apple Watch remote camera app so you can see what the photo will look like. This is just a remote shutter button, and the Bluetooth ones you can buy cheap are better and easier to hide in a photo than holding a phone.

### 1/5 — Waste of time and money!

*2024-12-17*

Can’t use the second device as a monitor! What’s the point?!

### 5/5 — It’s 2024 and still working great

*2024-06-13*

This simple app allows you to take pictures with your iPhone camera, remotely, from an iPad. I use it to photograph pictures that I convert to digital images. I set the iPhone in a mount, over the picture, and use the iPad to center the subject photo under the camera without having to look at the iPhone screen. When I am satisfied with the lighting and positioning. I remotely trigger the iPhone’s camera to capture the shot. I then review the result on the iPad and repeat the process with my next picture.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-06-12, version 2.8*

That’s it, does not work.

### 1/5 — Screen Orientation

*2024-03-06*

When I discovered that the app would only display vertically on the iPad, I stopped trying to set it up.

### 1/5 — Does Not Work

*2023-10-02*

Cannot use phone as camera and use iPad as monitor.

### 3/5 — Un peu lourd et photo basse définition

*2023-07-24*

Nécessite de synchroniser les appareils souvenirs, trop souvent.
Photos en basse qualité, 1080p max
