### 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.

### 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…

### 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

### 4/5 — Trouble with linking blendshapes

*2020-10-22, version 2.0.4*

Hi, in your demo tutorials the face rig you use has animation curves that you link . My face just has blendshapes only and it doesn’t link these . Please reply to my mail. Thanks

### 4/5 — Good tool for Mocap

*2020-01-23*

The only tool I could find with real-time mocap for Maya. It really saves a lot of time.

### 5/5 — Efficient tool

*2019-12-12, version 2.0.0*

Excellent time saving tool. Spend a few hours configuring with this now and have a good understanding of its benefits. Recent update helped to clean up a few linking issues.
Downside - unable to link successfully alone without a phone stand as it causes the eyes and head rotations to break due to axis positions

### 5/5 — Great

*2019-12-01, version 1.0.4*

Face tracking is not working if your device don’t have face id. 
I use Ipad pro 9.7 too. It is not working in face function. They said on their website
Anyway, I like this app. It is easy to use. I connect with USB and there is no problem. I am waiting for the next develop version

### 1/5 — Free to Download, $299 to Unlock ONLY Feature

*2019-11-01, version 1.0.4*

Talk about a scam app. No demo of the feature just a button to buy and that’s it. I thought the App Store review process was better than this.

### 1/5 — $299

*2019-10-31, version 1.0.4*

Nah, the feature looks impressive but the iPhone tech doesn’t capture high quality facial captures. I’d say it’s worth $20, not $299

### 3/5 — Well...it’s complicated

*2019-10-15, version 1.0.3*

Our company was looking into this app potentially for our new facial mocap pipeline. MocapX is actually pretty nice on the customer support end. We got in touch with them and the communication has been positive. 

In terms of the plugin, well after extensive tests on multiple rigs and face system, we can see the huge potential for this plugin and how it will help indie and small studio to streamline their facial mocap workflow. Unfortunately we still think this needs some improvement. 

The live streaming part (phone end) is really well done and the connection is stable. However we think its really challenging to integrate into a more intensive production, mostly due to its fixed and rigid workflow within the plugin. Also we think the plugin needs some more iterations to improve some functionality, performance and user experience issues, so it can be more artist friendly and stable in general. We’ve been constantly giving feedback to the dev team and really hope some of the issues can be addressed soon so more artists can benefit from this unique workflow.

### 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.

### 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

### 1/5 — Дорого

*2020-03-16, version 2.0.3*

Слишком дорого. В итоге сами написали свой плагин в xcode

### 1/5 — Too expensive

*2020-01-25, version 2.0.1*

looks good, but way too expensive even for professional workflows where you can get better solutions at this price. If you compare this to other solutions out there like Facecap there is no way this app can compete with those prices.

### 1/5 — Worthless as a free app

*2019-12-30, version 2.0.1*

Why even put it in the App Store for free if you can’t do anything with the free version? Don’t download this! You can’t do anything except record 30 seconds on the phone. And not 30 seconds per recording. 30 seconds total. Then you are forced to buy more time, and it is expensive! What a joke.

### 1/5 — 해당 앱 받지마세요~

*2019-11-23*

거의 40만원 되는 돈이 결제가 됩니다.
단독으로 작동하는 프로그램이 아닌 트레킹 프로그램이 같이 동작해야 하는데
그 금액이 결제가 됩니다~ 무심코 눌렀다가 깜 놀랬네요~

**Developer response:** 피드백 주셔서 감사합니다. 이 앱은 지난 몇 년 동안 많이 개선되었습니다. 가장 중요한 점은 여전히 Autodesk Maya에서 모션 캡처를 사용하는 확장/플러그인이라는 것입니다. 또한 더 저렴한 가격 모델도 도입했습니다.

### 1/5 — Caro

*2019-11-17, version 1.0.4*

329€ por probar la captura facial! Al menos ver si funciona de verdad!! El anuncio es engañoso y el precio desorbitado.

### 1/5 — Not “free,” and no trial version

*2019-11-14, version 1.0.4*

I was exploring this as a possible purchase for my company. Trial versions are an industry norm so that people can verify functionality and reliability.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great motion capture solution

*2025-10-14*

Highly recommend this to other artists, animators and developers!

### 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.

### 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.

### 5/5 — Owen connel/Mocapx

*2020-05-31, version 2.0.3*

Great software! 
We are proud to be together 🙏🏻🙏🏻

### 5/5 — An app I use daily!

*2020-05-08*

I’ve been searching for a faster way to do facial animations in Maya. I don’t have the budget to get the professional equipment for thousands of dollars. This app really brings the best out of what I have now. The mocap results are great, but it can be confusing at first.

### 5/5 — Professional animators delight

*2020-02-29*

Great app! Seamlessly integrate into maya. I’m a novice so I really enjoyed the tutorials. Definitely a great find!

### 5/5 — Saves so much time!

*2020-02-17*

MocapX makes my life so much easier. When animating characters in Maya, I would constantly have to reupload my design and test with each new take. Now with MocapX, I can just see the mocap results in real-time using Maya. It's definitely worth the cost.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-02-05, version 2.0.2*

Thank you so much. Great app... But joystick not working... volume, switchs and slider is good. But joysticks and gyroscope not working :( i try maya 2017/18/19 the result is the same in all...thx

### 5/5 — Amazing app for developers

*2020-02-02*

It works great both for local recording and real-time streaming. The plugin with live mocap data is a huge time saver and works great over wifi. It takes some time to set up the poses, but after that, it's great. If you're a character animator and you use Maya, this is the tool for you.

### 5/5 — Fills the FaceAR gap!!!

*2020-01-13*

I’ve been using FaceAR in Unreal and Unity for the past few years. It always took so much time to export then test in the engine. Now with MocapX I can test directly in Maya and not waste time exporting and always reconnecting the phone. 

I know it’s kinda a bummer you cant test what your phone in real time with the app but it works just like it does in Unreal. I say Unreal and not Unity because I find Unity’s playback a little slow.

Also, I’ve been in constant feedback with the devs. Their support is awesome. I really can’t ask for more from this product.
