I was granted access to some beta features and I’m glad to say I’m looking forward to later updates ! **Developer response:** Thank you so much your review and for being a beta tester! ### 1/5 — Seems impressive, but it's just another monthly fee *2026-06-17* Everything really shouldn't be a subscription, your current customers shouldn't be expected to support your ongoing dev costs, flat fee or I'm out, yall know the majority of your money comes from hobbyists who forget to unsub 1 year is 80$ btw, after that you have to resub, most software lets you keep the version you have without updates if you pay for a year **Developer response:** Hi, supporting hobbyists is actually very important to us, which is why Omniscient has a free version that can already be used for many workflows. The subscription is only there for users who need the more advanced tools. Omniscient is a very niche app that requires ongoing development, support, testing, and maintenance. The subscription model is what allows us to keep improving the app instead of releasing it once and eventually letting it stop working over time. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We completely understand that not everyone likes subscriptions, and we respect that. ### 5/5 — 3D artists’ best companion… *2026-06-14* One of the best apps for creating handheld camera movement inside blender.💎 **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review! ✨ ### 5/5 — Invitation code *2026-06-11* I payer for a subscription just for the mounted feature but couldn’t get an invitation even after emailing and Dming ### 5/5 — Review about this app but/ addon *2026-06-02* I was sceptical about this app but after I tested it I was stunned by how good it is at first it may be tricky but with the tutorial in the app it is really easy to manipulate there are some improvements to do like all the apps have but it is a really really good app for pro’s and even for beginners. **Developer response:** Thank you so much your review! ### 5/5 — My absolute favourite beta product *2026-06-01* My absolute favourite beta product right now I love working with this.
