Won’t show up in blender
Response from developer
Hi, please carefully follow the instructions that you will find in the VirtuCamera webpage, make sure you are loading the zip file and not the unzipped folder (if you are using Safari it may be unzipping it automatically). Also make sure you are using the correct plugin version depending on your official Blender version. Please give us a good review when you manage to install it. If you still have issues contact us at contact@virtucamera.com

Thanks Tyler, the joysticks will come in the pro tier very soon :)
Honestly not the same as the old app
Response from developer
Hi, thanks for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience. Just as in v1 you can reconnect using the bookmark to avoid having to scan the QR again. Regarding movement tracking, it's supported as well, but probably need to adjust the scene scale in Settings (or with the scale slider) to match your Blender scene, same as in v1. As for the lag, that can sometimes happen with very heavy scenes, but we haven’t seen it reported as a common issue. If you’d like, feel free to contact us at contact@virtucamera.com with your device and scene details, and we’ll be happy to help.

Works in blender on Mac, windows still broken
The windows blender plugin is currently not working in 5.1 (or even earlier versions), but I’m sure they will be resolved soon. For now I’ve tested the app on a Mac and it works just fine after granting permissions for screen recording and device discovery.
I hope in time they add the ability to assign custom buttons on the phone interface that talk to the plugin, enabling execution of custom python scripts. Once the windows plugin for blender is fixed I’m definitely going to bump my review to 5 stars.
