Broken

please fix it! This worked great but now it is not possible to login - “The request failed”

Terrible

After downloading it does not work with a new iPad running latest apple OS. App cannot connect with a X pro ll Nikon or the new x3 pro touch screen.

This app needs an update in the worst way.

Login required

You have to create a login to use any device features. I’d rather just use the flash controller as-is. Garbage.

Account Required

This app is nicely designed, but requires setting up an account in order to use most of its functionality. The process is absurd, giving you only 30 seconds to retrieve an emailed passcode, then entering that passcode plus your desired password. If you use a password manager like I do, you’ll get the timer to run out before setting up and account. Lastly, where’s the list of compatible flashes or triggers??

Update to v1.4

After testing the app for few shooting, i found that every thing woks, i controlled a groupe of 3 lights shoot tethered and the camera wasn’t accessible to me. I used the app to adjust the lighting and it was good but not perfect, the ine problem i found that you can not turn modeling light one by one, but all at once with is good but sometimes we need one at the time. The second problem is also modeling light power not ajustable from the app. There is the option just doesn’t work. The ability to adjust the flash power with the app it alreadybig improvement
Ps . For the app to work the x2t need to be on v1.4. The 1.3 will not work correctly dw x

Doesn’t work

The app is broken and won’t let you add any flashes to groups. Tried both on iPad and iPhone

Cannot add a light

I cannot add a light there are no lights to choose from like there were lights older versions. This makes the entire app useless! Please update ASAP

Only 2 things wrong

First, you have to provide a phone number to try and create a login - that doesn’t work.
Second the app doesn’t connect to trigger even after updating the firmware on the trigger (another hour wasted getting that to work)
It’s a real shame this is so useless - the triggers and flag work great.
Shame Godox doesn’t put a bit more effort into their website, support docs, and apps.

Privacy & Security Issues

This app requires a login and account creation with Godox. WHY??? All we need to do is pair our devices with our iPhone via bluetooth. That should not require any login account through Godox for our purchased devices to function. Quit forcing Americans to give out our phone numbers, personal information and keys to the back door for Communist-controlled companies such as Godox. Uninstalled!

It requires your phone number to operate

It requires your phone number to operate . Why do you need my phone number?

App doesn’t work

Just that, app doesn’t work.

Zero stars! 😡

Awful software, doesn’t work, won’t allow synch with my iPhone. (Though I can get the phone to fire the flash)
Buggy as a termites’ nest. Very poor from Godox whose flashes and soft boxes are great.

Area Code problem

I can't use it because it asks me for my cell phone number to login and the application does NOT have my area code and I can't login.

User Account

This app does collect personal data via need to create a user account for the app to function. There is no plausible reason why an account should be necessary.

Privacy invader. Requires activate and permissions just to use flash app.

Really not recommended. Do not install. Doesn’t apple require their privacy friendly login as an option when login is required?

Deserves no stars

Download. Open app, asks to agree terms. Doesn’t show terms. Doesn’t allow you to accept or decline. Just does nothing. Whoever developed this app has no career prospects with work as poor as this. And, doesn’t bode well for Godox.

A joke of an App

Made by Amateurs or young beginners. You are much faster using the real buttons. My respect for this company has sinked considerably.

Shady

Create account(and provide your phone number-to use the equipment you already purchase from them. Pass

You need my what?! Privacy concerns.

Forces you to create a login/password with YOUR PHONE NUMBER as the login before you can set up a bluetooth connection to your Godox transmitter. Not at all suspicious. (eyeroll). A

Privacy Concern

Require account creation and login to use.
