Refund please ### 1/5 — Connects but view is double and as cue. *2023-04-13* Image appears but not straight, cut in half and as cue. Unusable on iPad to view projected screen for visually impaired. ### 1/5 — Scan not in sync *2022-12-02* Hot/vert scan out of sync. Source IPhone 12 Pro Max, monitor: iPad Pro ### 1/5 — ndi hx not working for me. *2022-05-22* unable to get ndi HX source to be recognised. ### 1/5 — Cannot see video stream *2022-01-29* It appears blank screen when clicking on NDI source, please fix it. ### 1/5 — Keinerlei Support , weder für Apple TV noch für IOS *2021-12-08* Wenn man den Hersteller Support eine Frage stellen möchte landet man auf einer hingepfuschten Webseite ohne jede Kontaktmöglichkeit! Leider zeigt die App im Gegensatz zur Sierra immer wieder kurz Hänger. Auf dem Apple TV gibt es die gleiche App für knapp 10 Euro - die findet aber überhaupt keine NDI Source!!! Kontakt zum Programmierer auch hier nicht möglich, keine Kontakt Seite, keine EMail …. Sorry das ist unterirdisch schlecht !! ### 3/5 — Needs improvements *2024-02-06* A mute button will help to much. Including some improvements with voiceover in video scream. Some times double tap not shows the menu. ### 3/5 — Few More Functions Needed *2023-07-08* This app works great, having done video production for over 25 years, I am happy with this app. However it is missing a couple features, the biggest is video flip/mirror, which is needed for prompters. Also would like see some type of option for audio meters as well. Then five star product! ### 4/5 — Works well, BUT… *2024-09-04* Most NDI viewers on iOS/iPadOS don’t support picture-in-picture, but this app does… which is commendable and important for my uses. Unfortunately, the frame rate drops significantly when viewing video in a floating window. That’s better than nothing, but definitely something prospective users should consider. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple *2025-02-17* This app is fairly simple to use, it doesn’t have many frills, but is very reliable. I use this as a confidence monitor on an iPad on a podium, and has been in several webinars. Using NDI tools I’m able to stream out from a laptop one of the 2nd monitors to the iPad via NDI using this app as the receiver for the second monitor. ### 5/5 — Great! *2023-01-25* I left a review earlier saying vertical wasn’t supported but the problem was my fault and I got vertical working! ### 5/5 — Great and easy application *2022-03-23* I started using this application just after downloading it. It is very easy and gives great results. Thanks ### 5/5 — Great and easy to use *2022-03-03* I have been using this app on iPhones, iPads and Apple TV HD (newest version). It is simple to use if streaming in house from an NDI output device or software. I am streaming NDI out using vMix. I highly recommend this. On a side note - Home sharing works on iPhones and iPads. It doesn’t work on Apple TV’s. You are requested to purchase the app again. I opened a ticket with Apple on the home sharing but app sharing is either a Apple or App Developer issue unless the user doesn’t have it turn on or is set to use the appropriate account on the Apple TV. ### 5/5 — Good *2022-03-03* This app works well. ### 4/5 — Easy to use for testing *2024-05-15* This app can viewing using 2step only. But, this app can not use full view when using the USB Eth NIC. Therefore, 4star. ### 4/5 — Picture in Picture *2022-08-10* This is a great app it would be awesome if it had Picture in Picture enable so when you minimizedit you could still view the video while you are using you camera ptz web interface to control it. **Developer response:** Thank you for providing feedback. The app now includes support for picture-in-picture. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
