Still asking me to pay again. No customer service contact info to fix my account ### 1/5 — 'Recording failed' *2025-01-20* Set everything up as advised via the MacBook , after 10 mins of recording it said 'recording failed' and wiped all the footage. Tried against, same thing. Between this and the phone app, lost a days work. V unreliable. ### 1/5 — Impossible to remove *2022-12-23* This app is an absolute nightmare to remove from the Mac after “uninstallation”. It completely breaks FaceTime and always chooses to be the default camera (showing their logo) even when uninstalled. ### 1/5 — full of bugs *2022-09-12* needs more work to be considered usable ### 1/5 — Useless *2022-06-18, version 3.0.1* They build tons of useless features like recording, creating scene. But what you cannot do? You cannot see yourself simultanously on the camera. I want fcuking record simple loom video!!! Because app want to record all the time. First do what need to do good! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. *2022-01-31* I noticed this as a new app on SetApp and, needing something like it, was excited. When I set it up with my extra 6S+ (iOS 15.2.1) it connects right away but shows a blank screen. The app can switch between the phones front and back camera quickly, but again, is simply a black screen on the Mac. So… ultimately this is a disappointing app I’m glad I didn’t have to pay for. ### 1/5 — Schade. *2022-01-27* Vermutlich nette Idee, aber iPhone liefert nach Verbindung kein Videobild und UI/UX recht gewöhnungsbedürftig. ### 3/5 — Can’t turn off background blur or switch camera *2022-01-27* No buttons to switch to back camera or turn off the background blur ### 4/5 — Good start *2022-02-09* Still missing functionality (e.g. using the front-facing camera, using portrait orientation, and various things in the Mac app that this is a companion to) but it’s a good start, and I look forward to improvements down the line. At first I had the same issue as the other reviewer, where it showed up black on my Mac. But after some playing I realized it’s actually just somewhat misleading: in the Mac app there are various thumbnails for different setups, and one of them mentions the iOS camera. But this doesn’t actually set the camera; you can use any camera with any preset. You’ll need to hit the camera icon (bottom center of video) to switch to the connected phone. ### 5/5 — Love Detail <3 *2024-06-25, version 4.7.1* I hope the Mac version also keep getting updates. If there is a lifetime purchase option it would be so awesome for both iOS and Mac, definitely gonna buy it. ## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best of the best App *2022-10-19* This is the companion app to Detail app on Mac OS. I am a vlogger and was used to OBS but detail goes far and beyond for giving you simultaneous multi angle cinematic video recording. It is a complete studio on mac and once you switch to it there is no going back. There is an amazing team of developers behind it constantly upgrading it. Must try app. ### 5/5 — Actually works *2022-02-24* Nice job ### 5/5 — Better than Elgato Epoccam *2022-02-11* Works great! Super useful ### 5/5 — Pro com preço de free *2021-12-19* A melhor opção para usar seu iPhone como webcam. Simplesmente mágico. E, o melhor, gratuito!
