48MP ProRAW does not actually capture at 48MP
I bought this app specifically to remotely control my iPhone 14 Pro from my iPad and capture full-resolution 48MP ProRAW photos. The app shows “48MP, 8064×6048, ProRAW,” but the actual DNG files are only 4032×3024 (12MP).
I tested both remotely from the iPad and directly on the iPhone with the same result. The remote control works well, but I paid for this specifically for 48MP capture.
Hopefully the developer can fix this, because otherwise the app would be exactly what I need.

This works fine on my devices. More information is needed. For example, how do you determine the size of the resulting photo? What other camera settings? What is the lighting like? You can write to my email.
New Features
Hello,
First, thank you for creating such a well-designed app. I’ve been testing it with my iPhone and iPad, and it’s one of the closest solutions I’ve found for using an iPad as a wireless camera monitor. It has been a pleasure to use.
I have a few feature requests that I believe would make the app even more compelling, especially for portrait photographers, content creators, families, and anyone taking self-portraits.
1. Support the iPhone’s native camera modes
One of the biggest reasons people continue to use Apple’s Camera app is its excellent computational photography features. It would be fantastic if your app could support as many of the native camera capabilities as possible, including:
* Portrait mode with adjustable background blur (depth effect)
* Photographic Styles
* Night mode
* Live Photos
* Other Apple camera features as they become available
The closer the shooting experience is to the native Camera app, the easier it would be for users to adopt your app full-time.
2. “Review After Capture” mode
This is the feature I would love to see the most.
My ideal workflow would be:
* The iPad displays a live view from the iPhone.
* I press the shutter (or use a Bluetooth remote).
* The iPad immediately switches from the live view to the captured photo in full screen.
* The photo remains visible for a configurable amount of time so everyone can review it.
* The app then automatically returns to the live preview.
Suggested options:
* Return immediately to Live View
* Hold for 3 seconds
* Hold for 5 seconds
* Hold for 10 seconds
* Hold for 30 seconds
* Hold for 60 seconds
* Stay until tapped
This would create a wonderful experience for portrait sessions because both the photographer and the subject could immediately evaluate the image before continuing.
3. Full-screen review experience
During the review period, it would be great to have options such as:
* Hide all interface elements for a clean, full-screen image.
* Pinch to zoom for checking focus and sharpness.
* Swipe left/right to review recent captures before returning to live view.
* Optional overlay showing focus point and exposure information.
Why I think this matters
I believe your app has the potential to become the best wireless camera companion for the Apple ecosystem. Many users want the flexibility of an iPad as a larger monitor while still enjoying the outstanding camera hardware in their iPhone.
These additions would create an experience that’s difficult to achieve with Apple’s own apps:
* Live composition on the iPad
* Instant review after every shot
* Automatic return to live view
* Native-quality iPhone photography
Thank you again for all the work you’ve put into this app. I appreciate your continued development and hope you’ll consider these ideas for a future release.

Awful
Crazy delay
Response from developer
To reduce delay, you need to increase the frame sending frequency in the app settings (the third button from the top if the iPhone is in portrait orientation). This is a free feature, and you can test it.
WiFi needed?
It seems like the app has been changed and now both devices must be connected to WiFi for a successful connection. Now I can’t record outdoors using my older phone as a remote. Is this a permanent change?
Response from developer
There are no changes to the connection method between the two devices. A connection to a Wi-Fi router is not required. It's possible that one of your devices is sharing the internet with another device. This could be interfering with the connection. You can check and disable this in iOS settings: Settings > Personal Hotspot. If this does not help, you need to find out what else might be interfering with the connection in the place where the connection does not work.
It Works Perfectly
I wanted a way to view my iPhone camera image on my iPad mini as it’s a larger screen. I tried several other apps but each of them were either buggy or not simple to use. This app works perfectly, it’s simple to use, it’s extremely inexpensive, and it has solved my problem. Great app.
