### 1/5 — app crashes

*2026-07-06*

i use this app for work and all of our ios users started experiencing the same problem where the app closes as soon as it connects to the camera reel. currently unusable.

### 5/5 — Finally updated!

*2022-08-29*

I have been waiting for this update for a while. So far so good and I give it five stars. they tell me that more features will be added to this app in the future to make it better. As it is it’s 20 times better than the old one. Five stars for now, let’s see if it can keep those stars.

### 4/5 — Long overdue update!

*2022-08-29*

Where are my files from the old app? When I called the factory they told me that my previous files are still here but I can’t see them. They told me that an update will be released within a week which will allow me to see them. This is as long as I do not delete the app. I was about to delete the app and reinstall it but the message said that if you delete the app the all data will be deleted. 

This new version is much better than the old one. It connects better and has almost no delay at all. I like the Project feature which stores the videos and picture by jobs. The Gallery is much improved and makes it easier to view and share the files.

### 2/5 — Almost useless

*2021-04-01*

This app needs to be updated.   The lagged experienced causes the screen screen to freeze
