Audio doesn’t work with Win 11 and Won’t work in background.
Audio also doesn’t work with windows 11 which is the whole point. As soon as i bring another app in front using multi task, the feed stops. This seems to be a crucial blocker. Why would the camera feed stop as soon as you bring another app to the front using multi tasking. Your allowed up to 4 apps without any interruptions. That’s the whole point of this thing !

No audio / CPU hog
Similar to another reviewer, I tried the free version. It seemed to work well. The app indicates that it will do audio too since it asks for access to the phone’s microphone. But also said to get all the features I need t the pro version, so I paid the $8. However, I did notice that after upgrading, outside of asking for access to the phones microphone, it makes no mention of doing audio.
I wanted to stick a web camera on a birds nest outside my window. This app would give me the opportunity to do it wirelessly. Much better option than running a wire out my window.
However once I upgraded the app, and got everything setup…no audio. The only option was the laptop microphone. To make it worse, the laptop gets HOT. The fan never stops running. It gets so hot that I set a ziplock bag of ice under the laptop in the area of the CPU (added cooling) and it melted the whole bag in 30 minutes and the laptop still managed to overheat. Admittedly, I’m using an older laptop for this, but wow…it’s a huge resource hog!
I gave it 2 stars because it does what it says it does (minus the audio) but as others have mentioned it can be a flakey connection wireless, and maybe if you’ve got a really nice, newer gaming PC it won’t overheat your system. For my use though…this was a bad purchase and not recommended if you plan to use anything underpowered on the PC side.

Disappointing
Somewhat of a let down, worked first time and seemed great but it’s glitchy and crashes camera hub, won’t view the camera and frankly more effort than it’s worth. It’s a real shame as it could be an awesome bit of software
Don’t expect this app to work
They sabotaged this app to sell more Elgato cameras and mics. Video will not match audio, and freezes constantly. Quality of camera is HD at best, even with back camera.
Stops working
It randomly just stopped working and connecting to my PC for a face cam, the camera is fine but they need to fix the bug where it doesn’t work anymore
