Can’t hear the clap and can’t change volume
Downloaded it, set up frame rates and how to alter text, worked out how to clap… but it’s really quiet, so no chance of a neck mic picking it up and having read through the (very hard to find) instructions, it just says that the system will control the volume and I don’t seem to be able to turn it up at all?! Useless, and pretty embarrassing in front of a client.

Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback. Volume can be changed in control centre on device - swipe down from the top right corner. Alternatively you can set the volume before switching to / opening the app. DIGISLATE uses the volume buttons to trigger the clapperboard so these workarounds will get you going - the clap is extremely loud at full output. I’ve also made the guide easier to find in the app and it’s also on the app and developer website as a PDF, so all good feedback thank you.
Touch to clap is an issue
Nice app but not having the option to turn off touch to clap, drives me crazy.
Response from developer
Added a toggle for Touch Clap in 2.01. Any other suggestions please feel free to reach out :)
Almost perfect
I only have one issue, please fix the UI position so no Element is hidden by the Floating Island Notch on Iphone 15 Pro
Digislate is a nice app
You can do different sounds of the digislate in settings in this app
Good app but some improvements could be made
The overall functionality of the slate is good and there is a built in quick manual / information screen on how to use the app, but there are a couple major flaws which could be easily addressed by the developer. There is no way to increase the volume of the clap from inside the app. i had to exit the app and go to another app with sound and increase the volume to maximum. After doing this I could go back to the app and get the clap at full volume of the ipad. The clap can be initiated via volume buttons but use of the lower volume button will lower the volume of the clap, but the reverse for the increase volume button is not so repeatedly have to exit the app and find some other clip with volume to reset. The scene increment only seems to work with a single finger swipe through integer numbers and not as the app says to two finger swipe to do number letter scene increments. Lastly, the timecode display option will only do 100ths of a second in time of day mode. It will do frames in the timecode, but there is no option to set the time of day with frames. Again, this is not ties to any real master timecode generator so the frames would not be accurate anyhow. Instead of using the volume buttons to avoid the changing volume issue is possible by swiping across the screen to initiate the clap, but getting your hand in front of the slate when clapping is just bad technique.

AMAZING APP with a very tiny flaw
This app is everything i needed and more but syncing audio is hard with the clap vanishing the second it claps. If it remained on screen for a second after the clap it would make it a thousand times easier for audio syncing. That is really my only pet peeve with it and I use it daily on the film sets that I am apart of. I have recommended it to a few of my friends and even the directors have said it has sped up production with us no longer having to find an EXPO marker.

Decent
Not very intuitive for such a simple app.
Also I am unable to control the volume of the slate.
Soft clap is inaudible

Could be useful but don’t pay for it
I paid but still have adds. Will not restore purchases. When reinstalled still does not. Also makes no sound. Shame as it works well apart from that.
Great app, Music mode could use adjusting
Please display the music cue timecode as soon as the cue is selected, not just when the clap is triggered. With music videos, there is not enough time to leave the slate in the shot, so we need to see the cue timecode way before the clap.
Love simplicity and details
It’s definitely worth it for video productions and especially indie work
Great simple app that is very customisable.
Please add setting to turn off “clapper” by volume button. After clapping, I usually turn down the volume on my phone, and this sometimes accidentally triggers it. Thanks!
Some things don’t work
If you make more than 1 project with the same name, even if you edit the second one, after visiting the main screen it reverts back to the original you duplicated. So you can’t save multiple slates with different scene names but with the same project name.
Edit: actually the system is all kinds of messed up, you can’t save multiple slates. They all default to the first one. Deleting them causes issues too.
Also if you click the + to go to the project selection, you can only click the create new project button before touching anything, if you scroll your projects, the create new button greys out and you can’t click it, so you have to go into a project and leave again and not touch anything.

非常方便实用！
TITLE, DR, DP 对应内容如果能支持中文就更好了，现在不能输入中文。
很方便的软件，感谢开发者。

bug report
In the middle section I enter 200914_0004 which is a filename I need to display, but the app inserts a space between the 9 and 1. Is that a bug? I want exactly what I type to be displayed. Fix that and I would rate this useful app 5 stars.
Visual is too short
Good app except the visual clapper disappears too quickly. This is suppose to make synching audio and video easier but that really doesn’t help much when you’re spending precious minutes trying to synch and still end up being off. It’s just a second too short. I would definitely purchase the add free version if they could fix that little issue. I would hate to give this such a low rating for a small but vital problem.

Quite happy
I started using DigiSlate to help determine audio offsets when doing live streams. Quite helpful with that and I’ve subsequently started using it when actually filming live streams. By then I know what my offsets need to be but using the slate let’s me confirm that my camera and mixer settings are still in place. Also useful to have the text (on the slate) put into my raw video file.
I also purchased the $2.99 remove-ads in-app purchase. The cost is trivial and programmers should get something for their work.

Really good. Some suggestions.
This is really good and really easy to use once you get used to it. I didn’t realise at first that you could edit the field titles - that’s nice.
I also went through 3 days of intensive shooting before I realised you can save different slates - which would have been such a useful feature if I’d known!
I’d like to be able to choose a different (more normal looking) font for the main red section in the centre. It’s fine for numerics, but for text it’s too hard to read..
Also ability to see seconds from the system time would be nice.
And finally I’m not too clear on making sense of the different modes for the centre (red) part so would be nice to have an explanation for that somewhere, plus the ability to cycle backwards through them as well as forwards OR even better, a small icon for each so I can jump directly between them...
But overall this is a small, pretty simple but immensely useful little app and I was more than happy to pay the nominal amount to remove the ads.
Thanks!

Nice and Clean User Interface
Thank you so much for this clean UI that sets your app apart! Excellent.
T/C in or out
Am I missing something? There doesn’t appear to be a method to get timecode in or out.
Plenty of ads but no app!
Once the ads start popping up, I was unable to get back to the app.
