### 1/5 — Too personal for my taste

*2025-09-28, version 2.26.138*

This is asking you to have access to all of your personal information and history. I don’t like it. The concept is a nice and flow video. I would like to rate this app a one star.

### 1/5 — iOS 18 update? YouTube links still doesn’t work.

*2025-02-03, version 2.26.128*

Your app still doesn’t link to YouTube videos and you haven’t had an update for the new iOS updates and recent iPad models.  Your reply to my last review was unwarranted. You basically told me to FO and good riddance. I’ve forwarded your reply to people I know at Apple Corporate. And posted your reply in their discussion board. If I could give no stars I would.

### 5/5 — Loving it more and more

*2025-01-27*

It took a few trials and errors on my part to get this whole video thing into motion from a simple podcaster but, I’m using 5 camera’s now and can make things look half way decent. I’m hoping to learn more each time. The ability to change the entire shoot in post production is amazing… Changing cameras over and over again makes it look amazing. Support was quick to answer questions…. I can’t wait to master and share a few “How To’s: with fellow beginners that I learned on my own that made things work even better.

### 3/5 — iOS 18

*2025-01-18*

When are you going to update the app for iOS 18?

**Developer response:** Been updated for a while. If you are having issues we recommend using customer support. Your 3rd support request via a bad review. Not working in your favor David.

### 2/5 — hard to use

*2025-01-08, version 2.26.131*

canceled my subscription the same day.

### 1/5 — Youtube links not working

*2024-10-31, version 2.26.121*

Youtube links are spotty and don’t always work. Youtube live stream videos stooped working completely. This is not a good thing. I will look into other streaming apps. It’s been many months… when are you going to fix this?

### 3/5 — Great for recording but not using the RTMP protocol

*2024-10-25*

I love the look and feel of this app. It is incredible to use for recording. My issue is when using restream with the RTMP, my live stream would not happen. I live stream a lot so I can’t use this for most of my projects if the RTMP doesn’t stream.

**Developer response:** We're sorry you had an issue with RTMP. We have no other users reporting issues using RTMP. In the future- we recommend trying support before just giving a bad rating.

### 5/5 — Free trial

*2024-08-01, version 2.26.74*

Hi, seems to be a pretty good app ! But I got some equipment to test before paying per month. Like a free trial for 3 days or 1 week would be good to testing out. I will let a 5 stars but go easy on the price. Maybe your losing a lot of money because of this. A 10$ per month would be great

### 4/5 — Problemas de conexión

*2024-05-14*

Es una muy buena aplicación gratuita, sin embargo ha estado teniendo problemas para la conexión en vivo con mis páginas de Facebook en los últimos dos días. ¿Me pueden ayudar con esto, por favor?

### 1/5 — Another app not being up front with what their application does

*2023-12-31*

I was doing research on apps that I could use for a pod cast project. Need multi camera switch and by now, I figured there was an app that can handle this. Most apps will tell you that you can use a mobile device as a camera. Well, I want to use the camera equipement I have. Specically, GOPRO's and the OSMO 3. All cameras that can be used as a webcam. Well... I was hopeful at first, the description says, connect your camera to your laptop and you will be all set. 
Well, the app could not connect to my gopro 12 which I use as a webcam and it kind of connected to my osmo pocket 3.... so I figured.... buy the subscription and see if you can manually add the cameras (this is not available on the free trial) well.... I paid for it and still can't connect... watching the tutural video, the app gives instructions for mobile devices only. No instructions on being able to connect other types of cameras. I would love a refund since I only used the app for a few hours but I'm sure that won't happen either. So, anyone reading this...... if you plan on using anything other than a mobile device, this is not the app.

**Developer response:** We work with all cameras with the right adapter. We natively support all cameras supported by MacOS natively. Your OSMO and GoPro do not work in any other apps nor did we ever say we support them. Your review is filled with wrong information. Mike, please try support instead of trashing the apps you don't know how to use.
