Not enough exposures
I was able to get this app working just fine, but it really doesn’t offer enough capabilities. I have no interest in sharing my images online or automatically generating an HDR from the app, and am merely looking for a robust multibracketing tool for the Theta. This only shoots three exposures, with no manual control over the settings. While the Ricoh app allows custom multibracketing, it is tedious to set up, and I was hoping this would provide an alternative. What I’m missing here is the ability to specify the number of exposures, 10 for example, and to specify a high and low range of shutter speeds or ISO settings across that range, with the other settings locked to a value which I specify. If these features could be added to a future update, this app would be much more useful to me.

Still no good!
Just got my new Theta camera and trying to get this app tho work. After a couple of hours. Still nothing. Spent the first 30 mins just trying to register! Avoid this app! Not worth the space on the phone.
Does not work
Says you have to “Connect to Theta” but never does.
Poor WiFi
This app has a bug that prevents good connection with iPhone it drops the connection with super small range. Very bad app!
No merge or downloading
It takes three photos, attempt to download them, but fails each time. This also means no HDR image is ever generated.
Does not work
Goes through the motions of taking the photos, then nothing. Delete the app and move on. There are others that actually work.
Nice idea
I like the idea, but the app is severely let down by its terrible 360 viewer. You are simply scanning around on the equitectangular image, you get stuck at the edges of the image - missing the whole point of the image being a 360 image.
The idea of getting a HDR view using the different options available on the theta is great, I would suggest adding a feature that can toggle between before and after in the preview so that users can appreciate the output. Also give them the option of just saving the normal image then rather than the HDR if they so wish because the HDR may have been blurry for example and so would be quicker than retaking a whole new picture.
The app looks slick and I love the loading animation - may be useful to turn that animation into a progress view once the images start loading from the theta.

Does not work
App goes through the motions of taking 3 photos to then combine into an HDR photo. Then you waited few minutes. Then you get a camera disconnected message.
Not updated. Doesn't work.
App still not updated for iPhone 6/6+ and doesn't take photos with the theta s.
