### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-02-21*

Use it for gaming. So far so good. Had it for 2 weeks. No problems, I don’t record or anything justing using as a monitor to play my ps5. Works good. No problems

### 1/5 — Hate it

*2024-04-05*

This is free to download but you can’t use the app without signing up for a yearly fee. The app is garbage after that and offers less that the fre UVC apps available. Don’t download!

### 2/5 — No Sound Recording

app records video, when I go to play recording there is no sound.

**Developer response:** Sound recording is supported. Please make sure to grant the app access to audio input. If you need further support, please contact us.

### 5/5 — Simple, easy, effective

Works great, easy to use, reasonable yearly price
