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.

Must Have for Newtonian Telescope

This app is perfect for using while collimating newtonian telescopes. The image overlay and the ability to adjust focus and zoom lets you use this app and your existing phone to replace a multi-hundred dollar alinement camera. I would recommend that you get a phone holder to keep your camera in line with the imaging plane. I have not tried the remote capability yet, but it is perhaps worth ft for adjusting larger scopes to see real time what you are doing without moving back and forth to the eyepiece. I don’t normally rate app, but this one is too useful to not.

If you have no idea what i mean when I say “collimating a newtonian,” but you need a app that gives you the option of manual control over you phone camera, then this app is the one for you.

Not working.

Only get black screen when switching to iPhone camera. Tried reversing the camera and controller options but still doesn’t work.
Even after purchasing.

UPDATE
Finally got it working. What wasn’t clear was that the “Local Network “
had to be selected.
Since there is no “guide “ , I had to figure it out myself.
Stupid is as stupid does! Lol

The app likely doesn't have access to your camera. You need to check your privacy settings: Settings > Privacy > Camera.

Zoom behind a paywall

I’m only testing the app to see if it fits my needs. Why am I being prompted to pay within two minutes of downloading the app?

I don’t know if I want it yet. Silly. Deleting it.

Response from developer

Basic features are free. The time elapsed since the app was downloaded does not matter. Someone might try using a feature only available in the full version, even within two seconds of downloading the app. The review doesn't mention that you can use the free features indefinitely.

Not worth it

Tried using this app today. Spent 2 hours recording videos and ended up not being able to use any of the footage. It’s all laggy and glitchy.

Response from developer

If the frame sending frequency seems too low, you can increase it in the app settings. If the image on the device acting as a screen really lags, then this is a problem with the frame transfer, and not with the video recording. This issue affects a small number of users. We can find the reason together if you write to me by email. If the finished video lags, it's a bug, and you can help fix it by emailing me and telling me the iOS version and device model. I don't have such a bug.

Минус вайб

Отстой, платное вообще всё! Когда говорю «всё», это значит что даже удаление фото! Я блин не могу удалить фотографию, восторг

Response from developer

ЛОЖЬ!!! Автор отзыва фото всё-таки смог сделать! Все основные функции бесплатные.

Photo not saving issue…

When I select “Averaging a series of frames” I receive an error “There was an error when saving photo to the "Photos" app library
Error: The operation couldn't be completed. (PHPhotosError Domain error 3302.)”

Any suggestions for fixing this?
iPhone 16 Pro MAX

Response from developer

Thank you for reporting the error. I can't reproduce this error. I need more information, please email me.

iOS26

とても気に入って使っていたんですが、iOS26にバージョンアップしてから接続エラーとなり使用できなくなってしまいました。
同じような方いらっしゃいますか?

Gute Remote App

Ich nutze die App auf der #shootingrange und mit dem iPhone meine Scheibe zu filmen und auf 25m mit einem iPad die Treffer zu sehen. Durch die Remotefunktion kann die videofunktion gestartet und gestoppt werden. Funktioniert perfekt auch an einem Router ohne Internet.

can't set above 12MP

まさに求めていたアプリ!

今流行りの自撮りモニターをiPhone2台で実現できないかと探していて、このアプリに辿り着きました。デバイス間通信により、いちいちWi-Fiを立ち上げたり、画面収録操作をする事もなく、すぐにリモートカメラ撮影が実現できました。

使用レンズや、シャッタースピード、ISO、ホワイトバランス、保存ファイル形式(ProRAW含む)の指定もできて、フラッシュライトの常時点灯撮影もできるので標準カメラアプリよりも扱いやすいです。

一つだけ、画面のミラー(左右/上下反転)を使用した際に、フォーカスポイントがリモート元とリモート先で一致しないという不具合があり、反転位置を考えてタップしないといけないのが気になりました。修正頂けるとより完璧なアプリになると思います。

これだけのアプリが200円程度の買い切りで使用できるのはとてもありがたいです。

Professional utility at consumer price

Great remote for your iPhone! Provides all the needed utility to get your new/old iPhones into a remote photo tool. Perfect for consumers or professionals. Simple, effective design by a software developer who listens to your suggestions! I have been in media production for over 40 years and truly appreciate this app. Well done! Worth X3 what you charge.

Fixed!!

I love this app. When I first installed it, the camera up button did not work for taking a picture. I wrote the developer he replied and fixed it the next day.. It was difficult to hit the camera button while holding the phone behind your back but now you can simply use the volume up button.

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback and error report! But you are not precise in the description of the error :). It did not work only on the device acting as a screen. I fixed this error. Please check. If there are any other errors, please let me know.

Missing one key feature

This app is fantastic however, currently the ability to trigger the camera using the up volume button is not working. I wrote the developer and he acknowledged this and promise to fix. Five stars as soon as he fixes that defect.

助かります

大変便利です、欲を言いますとコントロール側(スクリーン)のipadの画面が横に対応して下さるとありがたき!です有料版となっても全然OKです

惜しい

動きがカクカクすぎる。あとモニター側でも動画を確認できるようにしてくれ。

Orientation Bug

Wenn man im Landscape bzw. Querformat fotografieren möchte stellt sich der gespiegelte Bildschirm leider nicht um - so unbrauchbar.
