Get a terminal into this and it's a 5 star app ### 3/5 — Pretty good. *2021-04-03* Great functionality and monitoring, except the camera stream never works for me. Works in other Octoprint apps, but not this one. ### 3/5 — Temperaturdiagram fehlt noch *2021-01-10* Fast perfekt... es fehlt nur noch das Temperaturdiagram Kamera Bild ist verdreht. Wäre gut wenn man die Drehung in der App einstellen könnte. Ach ja in OctoPrint ist das Bild richtig rum. ### 3/5 — App Broken after update *2021-01-01* The camera function is broken after the most recent update. Otherwise absolutely five stars ### 4/5 — Looks Great - few suggestions *2020-12-08* By far the best looking OctoPrint Client. I don’t use a camera yet but everything else seems to work great. The only thing holding me back from purchasing the pro version is it not having a gcode terminal. I’d also like to see the control buttons bigger. ### 3/5 — Pi Kamera *2020-11-24* Leider wird die Longrunner Pi Kamera wohl nicht unterstützt. ### 3/5 — Multiple camera support? *2020-06-21* You have multiple printers but how about multiple cameras on the same printer? ### 3/5 — Great app for one printer *2020-03-04* For people that need to see printer outside home. A DynDNS is needed. API is good call, but if you have several printers is costs an upgrade. If you have octiprint running anyway, and a DNS entry, you can always see it from the web without this app. Value is good for quick looks. Control is better with other apps/sites. Needs to be able to do more. ### 5/5 — Camera stream stopped working *2020-02-16* After most recent update ### 4/5 — Looks cool a few questions *2020-01-15* Is there a way to stop a print or turn off your printer and can you add new prints **Developer response:** Yes, you can both cancel a print or disconnect your printer from the Dashboard tab. Uploading new Gcode files is not currently supported. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Use OctoPod - this is no longer supported *2023-12-12, version 1.2.1* Paid my money and gave it a go. Had an issue where the first screen wouldn’t load. sent an email to support twice and it bounced back. Avoid, use Octopod. ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2023-03-18, version 1.2.1* This app used to be amazing, doesn’t seem like it’s maintained anymore. ### 1/5 — Not great *2022-01-09, version 1.2.0* It looks great but hardly functions as it’s supposed to. No camera stream unless I’m home, isn’t the whole point of it to monitor my printer when I’m not home? ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-01-04, version 1.1.6* Doesn’t work remotely I want a refund. ### 1/5 — Better apps available *2020-04-22* Paid for the upgrade and now no camera view. Lost the stream. Octopod is a much better app and has been flawless. ### 1/5 — Contact support doesn’t work and camera isn’t viewable *2020-04-18* This app worked better as the free version. Paid version I lost camera access and it won’t let you send bug reports through the app. You can type up a big report but the send button isn’t selectable. ### 2/5 — Dashboard doesn’t work *2023-01-04* I like this app and would consider upgrading to pro, as much as I hate in app purchases vs just a separate app to buy; however, the dashboard just spins its wheel and never shows anything other than the camera. As it’s not listed as a pro feature I figure it must be broken. ### 2/5 — Would be a great app if... *2019-12-30* So this app would be great if the camera setting would ever work. I have constantly tried to get it to work. I have upgraded to pro tried all of the ip’s that I can use to access my octoprint with the address in settings for my camera if I can get it working my review will get better. ### 3/5 — Kein HTTP-Auth *2022-04-21* Leider für mich nutzlos, keine Angabe von HTTP-Auth möglich. Eine Übergabe der Daten per URL ist nicht praktikabel und wird auch nicht unterstützt. ### 3/5 — Multicam? *2021-06-08* Purchased the pro version. I have multiple cameras on my octopi server using multicam plugin. Would love to see the ability to have the same in this app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great remote access *2023-06-24* The free version does what I need with quality video feed. I’m going to purchase pro soon. ### 5/5 — Great app, but missing some stats *2021-08-09, version 1.1.7* Its a great app, but in wished it would show an estimated time that the print would be done. ### 5/5 — Great App for OctoPrint *2021-08-01, version 1.1.7* Kraken works great with OctoPrint. ### 5/5 — Good app but i found a minor glitch *2021-03-16, version 1.1.6* this app is awsome i love the UI but first print i did was showing the extruder target tempeture as 70 but it was actually 235 ### 5/5 — Great app! *2021-01-25* Great app. Only thought, and I don’t know if this is feasible, but a widget that shows the camera feed. Again I don’t know if a widget can do that but it would be so cool! ### 5/5 — Perfect for monitoring prints *2020-12-27, version 1.1.5* This is a great app. Easy to use and perfect for remotely monitoring your 3D prints. ### 5/5 — Great interface that’s simple and easy to use *2020-09-29* Setup is easy and it works great ### 5/5 — No adds :) *2020-09-03* There is a pro membership but at least no adds in free version ### 5/5 — Wow excellent *2020-08-04, version 1.1.2* Great app to monitor my 3D prints ### 5/5 — Best Octoprint Remote ever *2020-06-24* I can’t fully say how much I love this app. It does everything I need it to AND it actually works. I have remote access to my printer 24/7 and it’s great for remote monitoring for failures and also trying to do filament changes. I dislike having to go back and forth from computer to printer just to heat/extrude/retract/extrude/cool down. Manual bed leveling is also greatly helped since I can just tap the interval I want to move the bed and go vs clicking through my printer’s menu, which isn’t all that user friendly to be quite honest. One of these days I’ll add an automatic leveler, but until then Kraken does the job better than I could have imagined. I paid for the full version of this app. Definitely worth every penny. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
