## What is PanTiltZoom?

Take control of your PTZ camera with PanTiltZoom, the ultimate camera control app. PanTiltZoom gives you easy access to your settings like exposure and color, and a smooth and intuitive camera operating experience using variable speed touch controls.

With fast camera switching, PanTiltZoom can control up to eight cameras and save up to 16 recall positions per camera. You can customize your saved positions using automatic snapshots of your scene or custom images. Because you control the pan, tilt, and zoom speeds, recalling saved positions can be lightning-fast or slow and smooth for single camera productions.

### 5/5 — User for years of PTZ control app

*2026-01-09, version 2.0.0*

Highly recommend PanTiltZoom 2.0. I was an early doctor from 1.0 and have been using it for a few years now without any issues if I do have problems it’s usually related to the camera itself. Highly recommend this app if you’re looking for something to control your cameras. I am a heavy PTZoptics.com user

### 5/5 — perfect!

*2024-10-27*

Very good app! Works great!!

### 5/5 — Works!

*2024-09-06, version 2.0.0*

It is the main app that works for me to control my PTZ cameras. It is sometimes glitchy, but it still does what it’s supposed to do.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-08-08, version 2.0.0*

Exactly what I need for my church live stream

### 1/5 — New update broke things

*2024-08-05*

Before the update, this app was everything I needed for my PTZ camera control. Unfortunately after the new update I am not able to pan anymore, only zoom. I reached out to the developer but I have not heard back. Was hoping for better support for a paid app.

### 3/5 — Most recent update

*2024-06-30, version 2.0.0*

So after the layout being the same for many years, the update changed it and took a little while to get used to and I still forget at times. The response of the controls seemed to be good at the beginning, no issues there. Well, now that it’s been a little over a month since the update, the response of the controls have taken a major hit. There’s a delay in getting cameras to move but then once it does, there’s not a lot of control over the speed. It moves slow and then goes into fast mode. It doesn’t gradually increase the speed it moves based on how much I move the joystick. I’ve changed the manual tilt speed and it only affects the fast speed but doesn’t do anything for the gradual increase.

### 5/5 — THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE!!

*2024-06-24, version 2.0.0*

Have been using this app for a while and it was painful with lots of disconnections. Since the update, no more disconnects. And now able to make color corrections! Thank you to whomever made this update.

### 1/5 — Used to Work

*2024-06-09*

Recent app update does not work for my camera. Every setting zooms in all the way. I have to use a different app. I’d like my money back.

**Developer response:** I can certainly issue a refund, but I would love a chance to help you resolve your issue. Have you reached out to developer@pantiltzoom.cam for support?

### 5/5 — Simply the BEST !!!

*2024-05-28, version 2.0.0*

I have been using this app for 3 years now and I must say this new update has saved my life. 
Thank you very much.

### 3/5 — Pls make it proper control app

*2023-09-12, version 1.1.2*

Ok. Basic ptz control - fine. But! There is no: shutter speed, iris control, white balance. Making this app not fully usable for proper production. The only easy solution is. Run ptz optics original app on PC and have this app on iOS as "joystick" with zoom and focus only. I would have rated 5* but some important functionality is just not there!

Add on to the comment.  Last updated 5y ago. :(
