Disappointing. Works well but you may have to buy twice.

Unfortunately If you happen to buy a new phone and switch from Android to Apple you have to buy the app again. Which is very disappointing. They don't allow cross-platform phone.

Теряет соединение

Ужасно нестабильно!

Подключается с большим трудом - длинно думает.
Вот время съёмки внезапно отключается, много раз подряд.

Дважды писал в поддержку, ответ не получил.

Cette app me manque

J’utilisais souvent cette application. Et aujourd’hui depuis que je suis passé chez LUMIX, je ne peux plus l’utiliser… alors que c’est la plus complète et la plus pratique des app pour piloter sa caméra… j’espère voir un jour une version pour LUMIX !
