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.

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.

もう少し機能の追加をお願いしたい

リモートコントロールは期待通りだったがズームはフル機能限定で課金500円が必要だった。
動画のフレームレートの設定は出来るがカメラの機能としてアスペクト比で1:1とかの設定やもう少し画素数を落とした設定も出来るとありがたい。

Awful

Crazy delay

テザリング中の接続失敗

有料版ユーザーです。モバイル通信のiPhoneをカメラ側、インターネット共有を利用したiPadをモニタ側に設定していますが何度か接続失敗します。
iPadはたまに調べ物したいのでこの状態で安定して接続してくれたら嬉しいです。

Response from developer

いずれかのデバイスがWi-Fi経由でインターネットを提供している場合(「インターネット共有」が有効になっている場合)、デバイスの設定([設定] 〉[インターネット共有])で「インターネット共有」をオフにする必要があります。

最高です!強いて言うと…

一眼を持たずに出歩くことが増えました。このアプリならパートナーのiPhoneをモニター代わりに遠隔でさわれますし、何より設定やズームも完璧にできるのが素晴らしい!
1人で撮る時にもズームやホワイトバランスなど一眼の基本的な設定は可能、迷わず課金して利用しました!
強いて言うと3点追加で欲しい機能があります。

1点目はカメラの縦横判定です。iPhoneの画面の向きをロックした状態だと、このアプリで横向きに撮影しても縦写真として取り込まれるので、純正のように向きロックをしていても縦横判定されると嬉しいです。
2点目はiPhoneの純正カメラのスタイルを適用させられるとより嬉しいです。
3点目、人が多いところなどでは接続に失敗することが多く、その度アプリを立ち上げ直しています。再立ち上げ不要になるよう、接続リトライのようなボタンが欲しいです。

素晴らしいアプリなので今後もアップデートを続けて行って欲しいです!

2026.4.30追記
早速1点め3点めについて改善いただきありがとうございました! 今後も利用させていただきます!!

アプリ改善のためのご提案をいただき、誠にありがとうございます! 1. 画面回転ロック機能を追加しました。これにより、どのような状況でも画面の向きが固定されます。アプリ設定で「アプリの再起動後も、有効になっているすべての機能を保持します」を有効にすると、アプリは常に同じ向きで起動・実行されます。 2. 後ほど修正を試みます。 3. 「再接続」ボタンを追加しました。 1と3の問題が解決したかどうか、メールでお知らせください。

保存先

素晴らしいアプリだと思います。
撮影した動画や画像をアプリ内にあるシークレットアルバムへ保存出来る仕様にしてもらえると嬉しいです。

Response from developer

写真や動画は、このアプリのフォルダ内、または他のアプリのフォルダに保存できます。暗号化されたメモリカードやフラッシュドライブに写真や動画を保存することも可能です。「ファイル」アプリを使用すると、暗号化されたメモリーカードまたはフラッシュドライブを作成できます。フォルダの秘密度はどの程度にすべきでしょうか:)?もしこれで解決しない場合は、ご希望の内容についてより詳しい情報をメールでお知らせください。

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?

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

Response from developer

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.

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.

インターネット共有での接続失敗が多い

モバイル通信のできるiPhoneから他のiPhoneへインターネット共有を接続してカメラコントロールする場面が多いのですが何回か接続し直さないと出来ません。修正お願いします。

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

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?

Response from developer

問題をご報告いただきありがとうございます。iOS 26でも動作するようです。動作しない原因を調査するため、メールでご連絡ください。

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
