When I open, there’s only a picture of it being used. I tap and swipe to try to find some type of controls. Nothing. Puzzled at the reviews since nothing happens when I try to use. I’m not app illiterate but this one is lacking something. ### 1/5 — It won’t open past the splash screen. *2022-02-25, version 1.1.0* It has a small pic of a young girl & says: Use Doc Cam to present your workspace through Google Meet, Zoom, Screen Mirroring and other video conferencing services! To get started, we need acce... I can’t go anywhere from there. There r no buttons or arrows. All I can do is close the window. I have an iPhone 12 Pro. I don’t really want to underrate it. It just doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Downloaded but it won’t work *2021-01-19, version 1.1.0* App says it needs access to something but there’s nothing to select and the app is frozen. ### 1/5 — Limited Rotation *2021-01-12, version 1.1.0* It would be nice if users were able to rotate the document 90 degrees versus only 180 degrees. I can’t use this for teaching. ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2021-01-01, version 1.1.0* I’ve tried installing this on my iPhone X twice and it would get stuck on Home Screen. ### 4/5 — Better *2020-12-16, version 1.1.0* Updated review: They seem to have fixed the camera quality issue and I use this app almost every day now to help teach the students I work with! The app is very intuitive and does what I need. I wish it had support for portrait mode for displaying worksheets, notebooks, etc. Besides that, I think the app is great! Original review: I really want to like this app, but the camera quality it produces is so bad! I have an iPhone 11 which has a wonderful camera, but with this app the quality looks so fuzzy and grainy and I’m not sure why... ### 4/5 — What I needed *2020-12-07, version 1.1.0* It serve the purpose of using my phone as a document camera for online teaching but I would like to have the option of using it in portrait and not be restricted to landscape ### 5/5 — Overhead Projector! *2026-02-10, version 1.1.1* We wanted to turn a phone into an overhead projector, and the camera app wasn’t cutting it. This app is great for that, with panning, keystone, and orientation toggle. Flashlight is a nice touch. ### 5/5 — I love it that way I can play teacher with it it’s so fun *2025-01-14, version 1.1.1* I give it 10 out of ten ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2021-10-22, version 1.1.0* I loved using this app for screen mirroring and it has worked beyond amazing for the past few days totally recommended! ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Really good *2021-10-15, version 1.1.0* Really good can just make it a document so great nothing bad ### 5/5 — A must! *2021-03-03, version 1.1.0* Exactly what I needed for virtual learning and teaching! I just bought a stand on Amazon to place my phone over my document! Works like an Elmo! ### 5/5 — Amazing!! *2020-09-28, version 1.0.0* This app is so intuitive. It gives me exactly what I need, not more and not less!!!! Deserves 6/5 stars!!!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
