### 5/5 — Can u fix autofocus issue on iPhone X?

*2019-02-12, version 12.4.33186*

Autofocus is smooth on iPhone 7+

On iPhone X, it’s shaking when it’s autofocusing.

La última versión no trabaja con iPhone cuando intenta abrir se cierra sola la aplicación, la versión anterior trabajaban muy bien

### 4/5 — Great app, promising update.

*2015-08-16, version 1.9.20596*

I just updated the app and it crashes at going live when using the new bonding feature. It works fine with no bonding. I hope a fix is released soon.
