### 3/5 — Cannot be used on iPhone16PM

*2025-05-19*

It used to be available on iPhone13Pro. Recently, I have changed to iPhone16ProMax, and the autofocus cannot be used, there is a breathing effect, and it cannot be focused. I hope it will be repaired.

### 3/5 — 4K 60fps will drop frames.

*2025-03-26, version 3.10.6*

I have purchased the pro plan.
We are using NDI to output to OBS at 4K60fps, but the video is momentarily choppy with a momentary return.
This does not happen when using 4K30fps.
The USB camera driver is out of date and does not work with the latest MacOS.
I would like to see an improvement so that 4K60fps can be output with either of them.

### 4/5 — It is not for window pls refund

*2024-11-09*

I wanted to use Apple Log function, but I don't support wireless functions from WindowIt's a beer in the first place.I hope you know that it doesn't happen

**Developer response:** Hi, refunds are processed via Apple. However there are many ways to connect with Windows:
* HDMI capture
* AirPlay via software or hardware
* NDI (widely supported)

### 3/5 — Advertised apple log footage for pro plan

*2024-06-02*

Big downfall for not having an option to use apple log for better color grading. I bought the pro plan thinking i was going to have that feature because its listed in there but i didn't. Thats major for me but other than that its a pretty good app.

**Developer response:** Do you have a supported device? It's only available if your camera supports it!

### 4/5 — The developers actually respond

*2023-08-26, version 3.8.1*

I’m actually not reviewing this, but Yo it’s better if a real person responds on this stuf.

### 4/5 — Top Webcam

*2023-08-21, version 3.8.1*

Aber warum ist auf einmal so viel in der App auf Japanisch? Das erschwert die Bedienung schon ein wenig. Bitte Spracheinstellungen deutlicher kennzeichnen, kudasei.

### 4/5 — No option to send audio?

*2023-05-25, version 3.8*

Very useful app, but was surprised they there’s no option to send audio, as seemed to be the case with recent YouTube reviews.

### 1/5 — Freezes every time.

*2022-10-25, version 3.5.1*

Can’t use it because I set it up with my computer and within minutes it freezes and I can’t unfreeze it.

### 4/5 — Nice feature set.

*2022-09-28*

Update - Attentive developer, he has lowered the price to 99. That is more palatable for an iPhone pro app. Thank you. 

If your going to spend this much money, you need Pro equipment. There are cheaper apps. EpocCamPro or Camo app. $349 for lifetime, wow.

**Developer response:** You are absolutely right. I have to admit I misunderstood some advice on pricing in making this major price increase. I have cut the Lifetime Updates from $349 to $99 and will be further refining the pricing soon (this will require a few technical changes) so that nobody needs to pay for features they are not interested in. I would also add that the "1 year updates" purchase is a lifetime unlock for the current feature set, so it gives you almost as much as the Lifetime Updates plan - the app doesn't require an active subscription to keep these features.

### 1/5 — Forced subscription for people who bought the old app

*2022-06-12*

It doesn’t make any sense they charge for a subscription to unlock all the features inside the app since I already paid for the app. I guess you guys are about to get what you deserve for all the greed when apple releases continuity camera for iphone making this app useless

**Developer response:** This is not true!

### 1/5 — Ruined by water mark

*2022-05-08, version 3.1.12*

The app updated and now it has a watermark mid-screen. What a blatant attempt to force users out of using it for free. Terrible business practice, removing features. Bait and switch much?

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Nickel and Dime

*2026-06-01*

This app is so compartmentalized behind various paywalls that I don’t bother to open it anymore. You need to pay to send signal to other device. Then you pay to record only your device. Then you have to subscribe to control it remotely. Really bad user experience.

**Developer response:** Fair. Just trying to make a living…

### 1/5 — Need help to use it

*2026-01-20, version 3.13.3*

I have bought Shootpro do I have to buy the Beat Sheet App as well?

### 1/5 — NDI doesn’t work.

*2025-02-20, version 3.10.4*

Can’t detect on OBS.

### 1/5 — No funciona

*2024-02-12, version 3.9*

No lo recomiendo

### 1/5 — Useless.

*2024-02-04, version 3.8.3*

You can’t control the iPhone camera while streaming from another mobile app. Both Shoot and the other app are using the iPhone’s camera, but if you use the zoom from the Shoot app, it doesn’t zoom in the other app. I don’t want to stream from Shoot (through OBS or other app) 
Another big problem: on the presentation videos it never mentions that you have to subscribe to another service: Shoot Studio - which is payable yearly or you can get it free if you purchased the Shoot Pro Webcam’s most expensive plan: Lifetime Updates - 100€.

### 1/5 — NDI

*2024-01-10, version 3.8.3*

The entire reason I purchased this app, and the upgrade was to be able to use the NDI through my Yololiv Ultra. From the moment I made the purchase on the app it no longer worked on my streaming box. This is very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas (plus?)

*2023-10-23, version 3.8.3*

J’ai payé l’abonnement, l’application reconnaît l’abonnement mais pas le site. Du coup, je ne peux pas contrôler mon iPhone depuis ordinateur.

### 1/5 — They don’t tell it’s paid

*2023-03-03, version 3.6.2*

They don’t tell it’s paid

### 1/5 — Craps out

*2023-02-22, version 3.6.2*

Zoom, google, teams… disconnects repeatedly.

### 1/5 — Purchased and then it stopped working

*2023-01-05, version 3.5.1*

Purchased and it was not activated

### 5/5 — Great little app

*2024-11-02*

I just needed something to display / magnify what I was doing on the table onto a smart tv overhead (how-to crafts, cooking) with better quality than casting. Nothing fancy, no social media posting, recording, etc.  With Shoot app, an iPod touch, HDMI cable and a smart tv, I’m in business. Super intuitive, very easy to use and clean HDMI output (nothing shows up on the tv except what I’m doing, no controls, etc). Something I was dreading and Ithought would cost hundreds cost me nothing!

### 5/5 — Phenomenal APP!!! Even Better Customer Service!!

*2024-02-16*

This app is second-to-none to begin with, but if you do have an issue here or there, Michael is, w/o question, the most responsive, congenial, genuine & dedicated-to-YOU developer I've ever encountered (and that includes family - very close family!)!

This is a must for any iPad user for with this gap to fill! 5* all day!

### 5/5 — atem mini 연결시

*2023-11-14*

양쪽 화면이 잘려서 보입니다 이 앱을 사용하는 목적이 카메라화면 깨끗하게 촬영하기위한 목적인데 16:9화면 비율이 안된다는게 말이 돼는거니?? 운영자 듣고 있냐?? 환불 환불 해줘

**Developer response:** 16:9 출력은 다양한 방법으로 쉽게 사용할 수 있습니다. 휴대폰이나 iPad에는 16:9 화면이 없기 때문에 화면 미러링을 사용하면 컴퓨터에서 자르지 않고 16:9로 출력할 수 없습니다! 

16:9 output is readily available by multiple methods. Using screen mirroring it would not be possible to output at 16:9 without cropping on the computer, because the phone or iPad does not have a 16:9 screen!

### 5/5 — Great utility

*2023-06-09, version 3.8.1*

This is the sort of software that made the Mac and iPhone great! Fully featured and written with love by a small developer who puts everything into making it amazing.

### 5/5 — Ottima come webcam per obs

*2023-02-05, version 3.6.2*

La uso  come webcam con obs e devo dire che fa il suo lavoro

### 5/5 — More value and functionality than any of its competitors I’ve tried

*2022-12-01*

My go to app for features like WB (manual or auto) with calibration lock, ISO lock, Ev lock, SS lock, Focus lock, Zoom lock. Each individually, partially, or collectively selectable. Unlike its competitors, Shoot app gives me FULL control over each aspect of the camera’s behavior.

A truly deserving 5 stars.

### 5/5 — how easy and smooth this runs

*2022-09-27, version 3.5*

I wish I have found this earlier.  It is the smoothest webcam app I have so far and it runs so well with the extra air server if you buy that as well - so much better than NDI connection and very stable for wireless.  Super when on USB and so much potential than the other app.  Have been using on my M1 Air and greatly upgraded the quality of my camera without breaking the bank.  Also helps a lot in getting a second camera setup when I needed it occasionally but without having to buy an extra camera which will have so much less function.  I still can’t get over how great this app is.  

Able to “draw” on the camera js exactly what I need for online teaching.  Saving me to take a screen shot and try to draw on it.  

And able to use app on iphone 6!!! That’s a bonus and save a lot for a second camera and being resourceful with old tech sitting around !!

Plus I like it how I can test all the features before paying to make sure it is what i’m looking for - which is all I want.  Thanks.  Please continue to give us more features and updates!  Options to control on phone or on computer - so less apps opens.  Web controls is still unstable at times so hopefully we can get a better choice in future.  Still a 5 star app for me.

### 5/5 — Funktioniert super!

*2022-05-22, version 3.1.12*

Bester Support! Thank you. Absolut zu empfehlen.

### 5/5 — 기존 유료로 사용했었는데 구독을 잘못 눌러버려서 결제가 돼버렸습니다ㅠㅠ

*2022-05-07*

잘 사용하고 있었는데 워터마크가 생겼길래 이것 저것 찾다가 결제가 되버렸습니다ㅠㅠ 어떻게 해야하나요? 이전에 유료로 사용했던 사람들은 평생 무료가 아닌건가요? 되돌려주세요ㅠㅠ 환불 요청합니다

### 5/5 — What I’ve been looking for

*2022-05-05, version 3.1.11*

This is such an easy app to use with great results. I had multiple phones running into OBS with this great app.

The support from the director both with his video tutorials and customer support is outstanding.
