It just says it’s connecting but never does. Both phones are on the same network. Also, the regular iMotion app, when horizontal, is 4K the only choice? I can’t get it to change. ### 3/5 — Was great but now not working *2021-01-08* Use this in conjunction with iMotion pro and have been very pleased with it for last couple of years but unfortunately suddenly the remote element has stopped working . It can no longer find my iPhone . Tried everything aaaagh ### 1/5 — Huh *2020-12-05* First of all, this is a remote control. This doesn't, actually record. Second of all, this is a remote for an app on the same device. What's the point? ### 4/5 — Would be handy to start timelapse recordings, too *2017-05-21* It's a great idea to use the Watch as a remote trigger, but (as far as I can tell) it only works to shoot individual frames of a stop-motion animation. I'd like to be able to use it to frame, start, and stop timelapse movies too. That way I'd avoid jostling the phone when tapping the screen and it'd be easier to record with the phone brightness turned down to save battery life. ### 1/5 — Abandoned *2016-12-19* This app does not seem to work any more - looks like the developer has abandoned it, as not updated in 5 years! **Developer response:** Sorry for this issue, we have made an update to fix this and iMotion Remote is now working fine, please install the update. ### 3/5 — Functional... Could be Improved. *2016-08-21* I've been using iMotion for a few years now and have thoroughly enjoyed it. (Especially because it works on older iDevices). That said, when I added another iPhone recently, I thought I'd try the iMotion Remote on the new iPhone to trigger iMotion on the old iPhone. I did like the fact that I could see the screen of the camera taking the photos and taking single photos was simple with the screen-tap function. I'd hoped to be able to set the recording iPhone up and then trigger a "session" but this remote doesn't do that. At least not yet. 1. For things like stop-animation it's probably great... Even just as a remote trigger for things Iike group shots, awesome. Basically any scenario where you want the camera to be stationary. 2. Number 1 is also where the problem lies, there are some instances where you may want to set up the camera for a time-lapse session but not want to touch the recording camera once it's set up. 3. My suggestion would be to turn it into a more fully functioning remote: A. Add the ability to set all the time-lapse functions remotely. (other than resolution which is automatically set depending on iPhone orientation) B. Add the ability to trigger a pre-set time lapse session. C. Add the ability to remotely change how the photos are taken (single, mic, etc.) This one may not be needed as much... D. Push notification to the remote if the iDevice taking the photos is running out of space/app crashes etc. There are probably other things but A, B, C and D are what immediately come to mind. 1st Star... Found the recording iPhone quickly, when the iMotion App was set to remote. 2nd Star... I could see what my other iPhone saw. 3rd Star... Taking single photos remotely was simple. 4th Star... future update ? 5th Star... To the right and... No.. Wait... That's something else. ### 4/5 — Super *2016-06-26* Rajouter les fonctions d'édition sur la remote svp! **Developer response:** Bonjour, nous avons ajouté toutes les fonctions de captures dans la remote (focus, exposition, balance des blancs, onion skin, troche, grille) dans la dernière mise à jour. ### 2/5 — Fantastic idea, but unreliable. *2016-06-10* I'm currently in the works of a stop motion video and this app continues to disconnect and fails to reconnect. It is very frustrating especially because I am using newer devices to make my video. When the app actually works it is a very important part of my stop motion animations, but it has greatly slowed down the process of animating. Please fix this issue. **Developer response:** Sorry for this issue, we have made an update to fix this and iMotion Remote is now working fine, please install the update. ### 1/5 — Horrible App *2016-04-24* This app is so bad and doesn't even work. I am using my iPad to take the stop motion pictures but when I use my iPod in iMotion Remote, it freezes and it crashes and doesn't even work even though I put it in Remoted. This is the worst app ever so please update it and fix it NOW! **Developer response:** Sorry for this issue, we have made an update to fix this and iMotion Remote is now working fine, please install the update. ## Frequently asked questions about iMotion Remote ### What does iMotion Remote do? iMotion Remote acts as a wireless controller for the iMotion and iMotion Pro camera applications.
