### 1/5 — Glitchy Transmission

*2024-12-01*

This app has the potential to be very useful. Unfortunately, NewTek seems to have made this app and then forgot about it. I expected much better from the company that created NDI. This app doesn’t seem to use the latest NDI protocol and it is very glitchy. No, it is not my phone or network as I have tested on multiple. Do not waste your money. If they update this app to work better, I will update my review.

### 3/5 — Needs hardware

*2024-02-09*

It’s not specifically clear that this app requires the CaptureCast hardware to work. It will not work as a camera to a software NDI source. That’s no reason to have few stars, but it’s not usable without NewTek specific unit.
