User reviews

Very useful!

Much cheaper than buying a gyro. And it’s wireless!!!! Too bad I have to tape my phone to my head!

Battery consumption

Works well but makes my phone extremely hot. Uses a lot of battery.

Perfect

Use this to send sensor data to touchdesigner, works perfectly. Thank you!

Wonderful app

I was trying to control Max or Unity with iOS motion sensor. First, I tried MIDI but couldn’t find a good app. TC-Orbiter of the same developer seemed good but crashes often .
And I found this app, GyrOSC, and turned direction to OSC.
This app works fine, can access all the sensors on iOS devices, gyro, motion, GPS, etc. and this very precisely.
I appreciate especially the new feature for configuring message addresses. Thus I can use Live’s Connection Kit without changing.
Thank you so much.
