Live broadcast to Facebook, YouTube, Periscope, Live.ly, Mobcrush, and more. New buttons won't appear in the video or live broadcasts. Permission to save photos will sometimes get turned off when updating your iOS version. You will now get an alert if you try to take a photo without permissions turned on.

User reviews

Screen button

I use this app for work all the time. I would give it 5 stars but the capture button continues to disappear when rotating to landscape and sometimes on start up. Hopefully this bug gets fixed asap.

Does not save photos

Saves videos but does NOT save photos, therefore useless.

Easy & Useful

This app provides all I need in an integrated longitude, latitude, altitude, camera and direction (i.e., compass) tool without annoying ads. More than what I was looking for. Works well and nicely integrated into my iPhone.

Almost perfect

If we had the ability to take off the distance option and manually correct the facing area (in the rare times it’s not spot on) it would rate 5 stars.

Great!

Hey, I would like to work with the developer of this app to improve it. I have plans to use it for work and have a couple of suggestions. Please reply if you are interested. No compensation needed.
