### 1/5 — Couldn’t record

*2026-07-22*

I’m not sure if this is a problem with my phone but I couldn’t even start a recording.

### 1/5 — Connection Rejected: Please update application to PRO version

*2026-03-07*

Went to try it out, after seeing a realtime device with USB connection was allegedly not locked behind a paywall. No such luck. In Maya, upon attempting to connect to the port, the script editor just spams “Connection Rejected: Please update application to PRO version.”

Would have loved to try this out. Shame it’s locked behind a paywall.

### 5/5 — Great motion capture solution

*2025-10-14*

Highly recommend this to other artists, animators and developers!

### 3/5 — Trouble Installing on Win, Maya 2025

*2024-09-25*

I’ve reached out via email twice, messaged Facebook, messaged their Instagram, and JUST left a comment on one of their YouTube videos. It’s been weeks since I sent the initial emails. I’ve wasted time and energy trying other motion capture applications that just seem much worse, but for some reason I keep coming back to this one that I can’t even get installed correctly. There website doesn’t have a 2025 downloadable version for Maya, and I’ve tried to get their 2024 and 23 2.2.1 version and their 2020 2.1.1 version to work to no avail. I’m assuming this is because Maya 2025 isn’t compatible with these older versions, but I wouldn’t know because nobody will respond.

UPDATE: They’ve gotten back to me and advised that they are working on a Maya 2025 version. Will update to 3 stars for now, and update further upon release.

### 5/5 — Very useful software

*2024-03-22*

Tracking works great and is versatile. Working knowledge in Maya is highly recommended to make the most use out of it though.

### 3/5 — Not worth the price

*2021-12-30*

Considering there are alternatives to this app, this isn’t worth it. The app itself is fine, plenty of useful trackers but that price…

### 5/5 — Excellent Features

*2021-12-21, version 2.0.4*

Using the joysticks feature to create remote car in Maya, it seem very fun. The real-time facial capture is very powerful, it can support all the maya rig and the results are quite impressive.

### 4/5 — We go to facial Mocap software for Maya

*2021-06-29*

I initially left a really harsh review because of all my problems installing, and I had immediate problems with head rotation and jittery playback during the live sessions, the characters head looked erratic and it was slumped over. But the company got back to me and has been addressing my problems. They aren’t all solved yet, and they really need to sit down with a newbie during the installation process and seeing all the problems someone could run into, because I have already lostA full day to the software. But there are a lot of niceties as well, and I’ll be sure to update my review as I get things going, so for now four stars, mostly because I’m optimistic, not because it truly works well yet. And I have appreciated the personal attention on solving my problems

### 1/5 — No real-time testing allowed

*2021-02-04, version 2.0.4*

1 star until u allow real-time Mocap testing
Maybe limit the duration to 5 or 10 minutes
