I got ripped off. This is a warning. DO NOT BUY THIS APP. ### 5/5 — Great customer support! *2010-07-15* These guys have an amazing customer support! I bought the first version of the app and worked very well. Now they came out with an update that unfortunately wouldn't work on my iPhone 3G. I have contacted them through their website and got an immediate answer telling me they will bring out within a week an update to fix the bug my phone is experiencing. Thanks guys, it's good to have some people around really devoted to their apps and helping out customers so well! You deserve 5 stars for the great app and support! ### 5/5 — Simple and good app! *2010-07-15* It works great. A lot easier to use than other camera apps. It is simple and intuitive, no need to get crazy with settings, flash and so on. Love it. Thanks guys for delivering a simple way to take pictures with my iPad! ### 1/5 — Bad *2010-07-10* This App is so dysfunctional that I'm upset at Apple for approving it. Don't buy it. It crashes, rarely works and is low quality. ### 1/5 — SLOW! CRASHES! *2010-07-10* This app is ridiculously slow and freezes like crazy. Waste of money! ### 1/5 — Would not sync with iPhone 3GS, iOS 4 *2010-07-10* Bought the app, but it wouldn't sync with my iPhone. Tried several troubleshooting steps. Waste of $1.99. ### 1/5 — Same as Camera A Camera B app *2010-07-10* Don't waste your money on this, it's just as slow and clunky as the free app Camera A/B. I almost think its written by the same people who just put a nice (fake) photo on the App Store. you still have to initialize by authorizing your iPad and Iphone on each others screens every time - unlike the author's "fast, automatic" claims. It's just as slow as Camera A/B. And, this one hangs my iPhone 4 after the first shot - the shutter animation stays frozen on the screen although it's still able to take blind photos. I was really hoping to have a fast way to capture images to my iPad without emailing them. I will still have to wait. I hope you don't make the same mistake I made. ### 5/5 — REALLY AMAZING UPDATE *2010-07-09* Great update, now the app is a bomb! So much faster, better connection, higher quality, thanks guys! I have both an iPhone 3gS and iPhone 4 and on the 4 is wooooowwww so fast! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2010-07-02* I want my money back ## Frequently asked questions about HDcam for iPad ### What devices does HDcam for iPad work with?
