### 4/5 — 좋습니당

*2026-06-25*

Usb 라이브뷰 사용하는데, 플레이백 할때도 같이 보여졌으면 좋겠네요

### 1/5 — Compatibility

*2026-06-21, version 1.5.0*

Should be compatible with S9. Stop gate keeping.

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2026-06-17, version 1.5.0*

It doesn’t connect at all since the last update.  Fix it or I’ll go with Sony again!!!

### 1/5 — Poor implementation

*2026-05-30, version 1.5.0*

I’m used to working with the Sony Monitor & Control app and was hoping this would be the same, but alas it’s pretty useless.  The real time lut on the camera isn’t replicated on the app, so only viewing log.  Can’t touch to focus or track. It’s almost pointless having it.

### 1/5 — S9

*2026-05-28, version 1.5.0*

Doesn’t support my new S9 😩.

### 3/5 — Not Working on iPad 6th Gen

*2026-05-24*

iPad 6th Gen iPadOS 26.5 not able to use the Flow App.  Works fine on my iPhone 16 Pro Max.  The issue on the iPad is that when you add a new work flow, it does not provide the pop-up to give it a name and begin.  It basically freezes.  Have to quit the program on the iPad and can’t be used at all.

### 1/5 — 뭐 작동을 해야 써먹지

*2026-05-13*

연결되도 화면도 안나오고 뭔 저장장치 없다는 헛소리만 하면서 아무것도 안됨 관공서 어플인줄 알았네

### 1/5 — Not usable on iPhone 17 Pro with S1II

*2026-05-04*

App works and connects flawlessly. However nothing works, no preview, can’t remote any settings. Just a blank screen. I think I’m giving up on all lumix apps at this point.

### 1/5 — Not working S1 II / iPhone 14 Pro

*2026-05-02*

I'm very desappointed, the app doesn't work at all, either I'm using the usb cable or the wi-fi. Can't figure out why.

### 4/5 — Works well enough but needs updates

*2026-03-28, version 1.5.0*

Using S5ii camera. Main issue with the app is: body autofocus boxes do not appear in the app. When focusing on faces it’s visible what you’re focusing on, but when the camera doesn’t detect a face and switches to whole body detection, the focus box dissapears in the app. On the lcd screen you can still see who you’re focusing on but not in the app anymore. 

LUTs seem to work if you select them in camera but can’t select them in the app. 

Option to increase brightness from the app, or brightness automatically maxing out would be very welcome. 

Other improvements can be made but all in all it’s really good and reliable enough to use, keeping your rig very lightweight whilst having a much bigger screen to work with and see what you’re actually shooting!
