Ha del potenziale

Ha del potenziale ma tra gli obietti anche se c’è scritto “2X” in realtà utilizza il 5X. Inoltre non si può cambiare il formato, scatta sempre in 9:16, come mai?

Disappointed

Had hopes it would be good and it seem like it at first but very time I connect my devices and chose a role one of them crashes

Response from developer

Hey Nxnx I just pushed a fix for the latest iOS consider trying it out

A few suggestions

I’ve been able to use this app with great success. However, it would be nice if I could connect more than one camera.

Response from developer

That is a great suggestion!! Now that I just rolled out the new architecture I can support that!! That would be unique and powerful

Doesn’t work

Absolutely worthless and a waste of my time . “ Error unable to connect” the usual response. It connected once successfully but then crashed.

Remote camera

I really like the concept and the fact that it actually does work, but it doesn’t always work so it sometimes it has a real hard time connecting to the other phone to Bluetooth and I cannot figure out why. However, if you just keep on doing it over and over and over, it eventually does and it does work. Cool app thank you.

Hi !! Thank you for your feedback! I found that if you turn off Bluetooth and keep WiFi on the succeed rate is much higher, please give it a go! I’ll add something in the UI to hint at that

Simple, clean, and useful in many situations.

This is a beautiful implementation of a very useful function. Apple should reward these people and add the capability to their suite

Funktioniert nicht

Ich habe es nicht zum Laufen gebracht. Kompliziertes Freigeben und erlauben immer wieder.
Gelöscht und Fertig

Remote shutter

Brilliant

Ideal para fotos creativas!!

La conexión entre dispositivos es instantánea. Es el compañero ideal para fotos creativas a distancia 😆🙏

A few suggestions

I’ve been using this app for about the past 12 hours. I was a bit skeptical paying for it, but I’m glad I did.
It would be nice if it had more functions. I.E.zoom in, filters, audio, etc..

Response from developer

Hey Starborn45 thank you for your feedback! We just dropped: zoom in and lens selection! May have more details about audio? I am a big audio nut and would love to add audio!!

Excellent mais manque d’arguments options

Cette application marche très bien, j’ai payé et j’ai eu ce que je voulais.
Je voulais simplement demander s’il était possible de rajouter quelques paramètres pour pouvoir changer la résolution ou le nombre de fps.
Si par la suite vous arrivez à rajouter tout les modes de l’iPhone ce serait top mais pour l’instant ce serait vraiment bien d’avoir juste ça!
Je recommande !

Mauvais

Me dit que l’app n’est pas à jour alors que si. Ne fonctionne plus. Perte d’argent. À éviter

Works - mostly

Only does 1080p video. Would be nice to have full control of my camera. Maybe there is a setting I am missing? It does work though, really well actually.

Doesn’t Work

Installed it on my iPhone 13 Pro Max and on my iPad. Couldn’t get it to work.

Response from developer

Hey Orlando, what seemed to be the issue?

Constant request to scan codes

The App works well and as advertised. It does not , however, remember previous connection details. Every time it asks to scan the code. Rather frustrating.
Please rectify?

Basica, ma funziona

Bisogna pagare per attivare la registrazione di video da remoto. Purtroppo i controlli sono molto basici e non si può, per esempio, zoommare

Connectivity issues at the wrong time!!!!

I normally love this app and the functionality it gives me as a one man photog show. Unfortunately, it completely zoinked out on the red carpet last weekend and I ended up taking selfies instead of the action shots I had planned.

I tried for about 30 minutes before the carpet opened but to no avail. There I was with o connectivity and no shots…I don’t know what happened nor do I know of any workarounds should it happen again.

I guess this is the part where I wait to hear from the developers…

Hey SoulProsper! I am very sorry!! That is terrible, so basically it refused to connect to the other iOS device? What changed? We would love to fix this please drop details here, I already opened a ticket here https://github.com/security-union/remote-shutter/issues/22

Goes in a huff if it can't use the microphone

Getting bombarded by permissions requests is not a good first-launch experience. The reason the App Store makes you ask for permission is that the user is supposed to be able to say "no" without you throwing a strop and punishing them for it. "No microphone" should mean "no audio recording", not a big black screen saying "you said no so now I won't work".

Deleted.

Shady permissions requirement

Why is this app requiring me to allow access to part or all of my existing photo library in addition to the microphone and camera on BOTH devices, despite the fact that other apps have an option in the same menu to add photos only? If this is exclusively for the purpose of adding photos to your library as the permissions prompt implies, why is the app forcing users to consent to allow more access than that, when other apps apparently have the option to request that specifically? Not to mention, only paid users can even record video, so it's suspicious that you're requiring microphone access for your free users. No thanks.

No zoom or tap focus?

Interesting app that works well. I just wish there was a way to zoom and pick focus points. Maybe a future update???

Response from developer

Hey rremesi, I just added zoom and lens swapping, I would love you to try it out
