User reviews

Timebar slate soon???

Timebar slate app dev soon?

Great new update with QR code

I beta tested this app, using two GoPro 8's (both setup with the Lab's firmware) and my two Tentacle Sync E's. This update enabled the sync of my camera, audio recorder, and the two GoPro's. The GoPro's were about two frames off in the Beta version, but this offset is now configurable to match. Once installed, do a test with your equipment and you should be good to go.

Perfectly in sync

Awesome tool. Works perfectly.

Just works

Works as designed. Would be nice if it interfaced with a more comprehensive slate app, like Movie Slate.

Slightly off

The Tentacle sync Bluetooth modules pass timecode to my audio recorder and two cameras perfectly, but if I film the TimeBar app the phone's display is always fast by 12-13 frames compared to the TC on the actual media files.
