UPDATE app for use with USB-C
I have the legacy tentacles and I can’t change the frame rate anymore since I’ve upgraded to a new iPhone with USB-C. Please update your app. I know you’re probably doing this to force people into buying the new tentacles, but I’d rather buy Denecke’s if I need to upgrade because of your lack of support.

Tentacle is a wonderful ecosystem for audio and timecode!
I use Tentacle Sync E mk II for timecode to all of my cinema cameras. I used to prefer to not use my personal phone or laptop but I’ve embraced the speed and simplicity of using software and having easy visibility into everything happening on set, including Sync E, Aputure, Teradek. This just makes life easier on set, prevents mishaps that can cause problems, and lets everyone work faster. Big props to Tentacle for being one of the first ones to do it, and do it extremely well!

Rock solid. Up and running super fast!
I purchased four Sync E units to use with RED and Canon cameras for timecode. This app is clean, easy to use, everything just works and keeps things efficient. I also use four Track E units as 32-bit float backup recorders when using a boom mic. This allows everything to be nimble and efficient having it all in one app and all units in sync. Talent appreciates how light weight the pocket recorders are and camera ops like how Sync E is small and light weight and doesn’t get in the way in a camera build. Managing everything quickly from a well thought out app is fantastic.

Legacy box Does NOT work with iPhone 15
Is not compatible with iPhone 15 using a legacy box.
Response from developer
We have verified the Tentacle Setup app version 4.2.1 works with the iPhone 15.
Not bad
I use this as a backup record for my ENG rig. It’s nice peace of mind to have. I just wish it had any memory card info in the app. I have no idea when I need to change cards.
Response from developer
The remaining recording time is displayed in the app.
