Please fix it! the app is not working anymore
Rubish aps… doesn’t work on ios 17
I expect more from Roland… so i bought the gadget this aps is a let down and poor support from the tech dept.. they just keep sending me link thats already on their website tht doesn't help at all… installation guide was very poor…. And they didn’t seems to know that IOs was still not supported…
Active the app please.
App is not working again. Every time a new IPhone comes out the app crashes. It’s been 3 weeks since the app crashed. I love using the app and the interface but it always crashes when a new IPhone comes out.

Response from developer
Sorry to hear you are having trouble again. We have people looking into the app. Hopefully there will be a solution soon. Thank you for your feedback and feel free to reach out through our support portal if youd like further assistance. https://www.roland.com/backstage/support
No support for Zoom
It’s quite a shame that they worked so hard on the hardware side of things but this product’s functionality is torpedoed by lack of updates and functionality of its app. Zoom is a natural habitat for musicians (although you have to enable original sound). This would have been the perfect device to share multiple screens for broadcasts, but the app won’t support zoom.

Overhaul the app please.
The overall product is good. The issue is with the app. I can’t see any comments being posted while streaming. If you add your own sound bites (which is the one good thing) there is no way to make them not loop. If you start the app in portrait mode you have to leave the app change your phone to landscape and then open the app back up. Make the mixer stand alone to work with messenger and zoom. The app only works as a satellite camera with the iPhone 14 pro. Comments still don’t work.

App not dependable
I dislike the fact the app and device will only work with Wi-Fi. Also, the app keeps crashing.
Trash
Worked one time and then wouldn’t record again.
Nice hardware Poor App
C’mon Roland you have a great interface but the app crashes when I attempt to load a pic or a movie clip from my Library. Please allow to post livestream on business pages. Other than that, it had potential.
Is Roland Go Livecast a Total WASTE?
I really don’t know where to start with the issues I’m having with this app/unit. I paid $200+ for a product I haven’t been able to use at all. I should’ve returned the unit within the return window, but I thought I could remedy some of the problems by utilizing the internet/other Livecast users. Unfortunately, there is very little support available for this product. It’s also unpopular....
My last resort is calling Roland tech support directly. If that doesn’t help, this great ‘idea’ was a total waste. It’s so infuriating.

Keeps glitching and crashing mid-recording
Trying to record on this is a waste of time. Keeps glitching and crashing EVERY time. Utter piece of junk.
RMTP broken on IOS 14.1

A decent little device
I purchased mine live cast after Roland updated the device several times. I’ve only had one instance of crashing and the audio input is good. However, I can’t seem to get the screen broadcasting to work and comments from twitch do not come through. I also think adding Instagram live would be a great addition to the live streaming platforms.

Garbage, Garbage Garbage
This app is terrible. It constantly crashes..yes I have the latest version, with tons of storage on my new Ipad.....you cannot rely on this app or device to work properly.....terrible job Roland 👎👎👎
Text overlay issue
Wanted to use this for some guitar tutorials but it doesn’t allow text overlay in landscape mode , which makes it useless for my needs
Doesn’t work at all
Downloaded this app on iPhone 7 running version 12.1.2 and app will not even open! What gives?!
Hard to love
Inconsistent with features. Some days they work and some days they don’t. The satellite camera option just keeps saying waiting on connection. Do we need an update???
Be Careful
I’ve used this for 4 of DJ live streams now, the concept is great but it is let down massively by the app software. The app crashes constantly on my iPhone SE (there’s goes my second camera).. it works on my iPhone 8. I haven’t been able to enjoy the other features on the unit due to fear of it crashing. Its a very light plastic box and the mic port is faulty already and will need replaced. When you go live, it doesn’t auto rotate to landscape which is frustrating. Also it would be handy if the unit could charge your phone while connected, I get 2 hours on a full battery and that’s it. I have a pile of Roland stuff and this unit is not the typical standard you would come to expect from them... i note the new update gives you more options for streaming to pages etc now which is good.... I want to like it, but as it is I’m looking to move to something else as soon as possible and then try to return or sell the unit. It hasn’t crashed while I’ve been live which is a blessing. I get the feeling if I was to push the unit then it would tho and as I’ve stated once I’ve replaced the equipment I will try to return it for a refund. Expensive for what it is.

Impressive concept! But a few comments...
During the COVID-19 shutdowns and needing to resort to live streaming and video conferencing for most of my work, this unit and app are VERY impressive!!! The interface box is very well thought out and easy to use. The app has a couple features I would like to see and one function in the interface itself:
1) Interface: Be able to utilize the stereo audio in as stereo and NOT mix it to mono - maybe the switch function of Stereo/Mono available inside the App Settings. (BIGGEST disappointment of all!). No idea why Mono mixing was done - FaceBook, YouTube, and some other streaming services allow stereo. I use this unit with a digital organ, and it muddies the sound by not allowing it to have the spacial definition the stereo outputs give. (Not knowing if the audio mixing is done in the interface or the app, I can’t say if this is able to be implemented.). And while you’re at it, an EQ function for the Audio Input in the App would be useful as well.
2) App: Allow the text/photo functions to allow Fade In/Out as well as Dwell Time (allow it to display for x-seconds)
3) App: Allow “BlackBox” sides when displaying a video to fill up the entire screen. Currently (April 2020) it allows you to display the video in the center of the screen, but the camera feed is still visible on the sides of the screen.
4) App: Allow Opacity functions of photos and videos over top the camera video
5) App: The ability to log-out of streaming services. Right now (April 2020), I was unable to logout of my services once logged in. (Second biggest disappointment of all.)
6) App: Allow repositioning and resizing of Picture In Picture Satellite Camera function. Also maybe allow a faded edge function to soften the edge of the PiP.
Comments regarding operations that are not covered in the Manual:
1) Using a Picture or Video to assign to a Pad from your Photos Library MUST be downloaded to the device before importing it into the menu and buttons - otherwise the app crashes.
2) You CAN use the audio interface portion with other apps. But you have to set it up with the App on first, then you can change apps. You can still use the Mute Mic button on the Go Livecast box. But no video/photo/text capabilities are available without the Go Livecast App.
I do hope Roland updates the app to include the functions I mention above - ESPECIALLY the Stereo function. Right now it is about 90% useful without those functions I mention, but still very useful as it is.
Bravo, Roland!
