Horrible connection

Terrible connection stability when in ad-hoc mode, even when I’m less than 10ft from camera. The app constantly disconnects when using.

Lost Connection

Everytime this app updated to a newer version it loses the ability to connect to my Komodo

Meh

No longer connects to my red after app update. Nothing new from red

Great, could it control external focus motor?

Is there a way to control an external focus motor via the app?

Great app. Poor wireless connectivity

Lots of features…if your camera will connect. Many problems getting the app to connect to the camera directly or over existing WiFi networks. When I managed to get it connected, video display has a 10-15 second delay. About 1fps. Tried this over multiple different networks. Even usb connectivity was much delayed and connection was hard to obtain. So lots of controls, but almost no way to connect to those controls rendering the app literally unusable. Had this problem for about 18 months now. No solutions from RED.
