### 4/5 — iPhoneで使えた！

*2024-12-05, version 1.9.4*

x2t-nとAD200を使いこのアプリでiPhoneからフラッシュ撮影ができました！
x2t-nとアプリはBluetoothですぐに同期できましたが、撮影してみるとうまくシャッターとフラッシュがシンクロせずに失敗していました。
しかしAD200の方で30Hzで3回のマルチ発光を設定して、うまくシンクロしてくれました！
アプリからマルチ発光設定しただけでは反応なくて苦労しましたがうまく設定できて良かった！
手持ちの機材でiPhoneで外部フラッシュ撮影が使えるようになるなんて最高です！
ただ、シャッタースピードが遅いので日中シンクロは工夫する必要がありそうです

### 4/5 — Не работает синхронизация с айфоном 15 pro max

*2024-11-17, version 1.9.4*

Такая же история как у человека в январе, 
С айфоном 15 iOS 17.7 все системы работают, но при съемке нет захвата света со вспышки.  И пишет при синхронизации: «The current system does not support Bluetooth synchronization! !!»

### 3/5 — mulch発光ストロボならば設定次第で使える

*2024-11-05, version 1.9.4*

「mulch発光モード」付きのストロボの設定を「30Hzで2回以上」にしてやれば、「godox X2T」を介してiPhoneカメラで撮影可能です。因みに私の場合は「30Hzで3回発光」にしています。ただし、「広角側には制限あり」の様です。

### 2/5 — No sincroniza iPhone XS Max

*2024-05-21, version 1.9.4*

Conecta al Bluetooth, dispara, pero a destiempo, no se sincroniza el con el disparo
Que debo hacer? No encuentro la solución!

Me dice este mensaje… The current system does not support Bluetooth synchronization x2t

### 1/5 — Needs a new update

*2024-03-12, version 1.9.4*

Bluetooth works on test fire. But doesn’t sync to camera/flash fire

### 1/5 — Flash out of sync

*2024-03-08, version 1.9.4*

LF308 only connects to this app and the camera is out of sync with the lights flash! Camera app is trash,

### 1/5 — iPhoneでは同調しない

*2024-02-28, version 1.9.4*

他のレビューにもある通り、iPhoneでは同調しません。
いまのところは、ストロボ（X2T）の発光量をスマホからいじれるだけのアプリですね。

### 1/5 — iPhone SE ではシンクロしません

*2024-02-17, version 1.9.4*

ので使えません

### 1/5 — app dada de baja

*2024-02-12, version 1.9.4*

Escribí al soporte de la app, su respuesta fue que le dieron de baja hace más de 3 años, les pedí que por favor bajaran la app delas plataformas de descarga pero veo que aún sigue acá

### 1/5 — iPhone 13 pro Max

*2024-02-04, version 1.9.4*

iPhone 13 pro Max not support bad program

### 1/5 — No funciona

*2024-01-17, version 1.9.4*

Se desconecta en todo momento y no sincroniza, salta el flash del teléfono pero no el Godox.

### 1/5 — Не работает мобильная съемка X2T

*2024-01-13, version 1.9.4*

Godox X2T работает неверно с iphone 15 pro max, iphone 13 pro, iphone 11, iphone 8 plus.
Вспышка срабатывает либо после, либо до получения фотографии.

Не попадает вспышка в нужный момент. Это очень плохо.

Хотел купить Godox A1, но понимаю, что там будет тоже самое.

Надо обновлять приложение, но видимо никому нет до этого дела.

### 1/5 — Não Funciona

*2024-01-05, version 1.9.4*

### 1/5 — Doesnt work

*2023-12-12, version 1.9.4*

Doesnt sync with the phone. Iphone 11 Pro ios 17

### 1/5 — Manca aggiornamento

*2023-11-14, version 1.9.4*

Manca aggiornamento per iPhone 14 pro Un peccato perché è una bella applicazione
La applicazione non funciona con i nuovi iPhone e il nuovo aggiornamenti e così è una applicazione inutile

### 1/5 — Why Godox?

*2023-10-24, version 1.9.4*

You have an app since apple 14
Now we at Apple 15
And still can’t get the sync to work in combination 

Why even advertised that you can use a iPhone to trigger in camera mode when this is false.

Your developers could had fix this issues or simply say not compatible with iPhone..

it’s disingenuous that you even have it on the Apple Store.. 

Functionally wise I can just use my remote to get to the point instead of adding another device to the mix..
Make it make sense..

### 1/5 — No synchronization with iPhone

*2023-10-15, version 1.9.4*

Flash fires but is not visible

### 1/5 — Need to develop feature to sync shutter and external flash via Bluetooth

*2023-09-09, version 1.9.4*

This app should be able to sync the photo app trigger with external flash like profoto app

### 3/5 — No conecta iphone 14 pro max

*2023-08-28, version 1.9.4*

Cuándo se lanzara una versión que permita  usar los flashes por Bluetooth en el modo cámara?

*2025-12-04, version 1.9.4*

It shows reviews saying it works synchronizing without issues when in fact doesn’t

*2025-07-17, version 1.9.4*

### 1/5 — Out of sync

*2025-02-13, version 1.9.4*

I was able to connect my phone to XPro II trigger, and then trigger a speedlight with my phone. Pretty cool! However, it triggers the flash before taking the picture, which makes for a photo without light. Is there a way to fix the syncing?

Synchronization is not working with iPhone 15 pro max.

### 5/5 — Гугол в помощь

*2023-07-01, version 1.9.4*

Пароль 000000

### 5/5 — Please update app for 14 pro max.

Been waiting for the new update of the app compatible for iPhone 14 pro max!

### 5/5 — Release an update for iPhone 13 pro max

*2021-11-25, version 1.9.4*

Release an update for iPhone version 13 pro max

### 5/5 — Works FANTASTIC for me

*2021-11-07, version 1.9.4*

I didn’t even realize their was an app for this light (VL300) after an entire year and looked at a YouTube video and was amazed at how easy it was to setup (after i figured out the password was 000000 😩) and it flows so flawless. I don’t know why this app has so many bad reviews but works very good for me.

### 5/5 — Perfecto

*2021-04-19, version 1.9.2*

Hace lo que promete... es perfecto para controlar desde el móvil los dispositivos que dispongan de bluetooth de godox. Yo lo conecto al x2t y va perfectamente. Encantado

### 5/5 — Работает но не стабильно

*2021-04-02, version 1.9.2*

Сделайте обновление!!!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — 待机按钮位置不合适

*2021-01-20, version 1.9.2*

使用软件很久了，唯一不太友好的设计就是待机按钮要进入到每个闪光灯内部去开关太麻烦了，可以放到闪光灯列表里吗？谢谢！

### 5/5 — Read this before setting up X2T

*2020-10-27, version 1.9.2*

I watched a comprehensive YT video for setup and it was a breeze. Got this app and my two flashes (580exii & YN600exrt) to work with the X2T-C in no time. For people complaining about the sub pwd it’s 000000 by default! To apply stanby to any flash long press on the groups or scroll at the top to standby and that should standby all flashes. This app is a godsend!
P.S. Watch studioprobe studio lighting complete walk-through to learn to best utilize this app for flash triggers

### 5/5 — 其實ios13都發佈了這麼久

*2020-06-10, version 1.9.2*

難道貴公司真的不用升級支持A1的設備？
