I was only interested in the live mode anyway but I would have purchased another brand if I had known that the software just could not be used, and how mush time I would waste trying to get it to work. The “warnings” in the app just dont make sense and is just another example of lazy development without even a decent attempt to translate into any sort of English that actually describes the issue in a way that you can react to. Its shameful. ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-03-06, version 1.0.6* Not good ### 1/5 — The app is horrid *2025-06-20* I can’t connect to the app as the app won’t connect to the internet and every time I turn the internet on on the camera it comes up with info that I can’t get out of unless Turning off the wifi ### 1/5 — Does not connect to camera *2025-01-16* Like many others I am unable to connect the camera in the app. I have reset the wifi on the camera I have deleted and reinstalled the app but it just times out over and over again ### 1/5 — Software does not connect rubbish *2024-11-08* Software does not connect rubbish dont use ### 1/5 — Poor app *2024-08-17* Won't connect, developer needs to fix this. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2024-06-24* Garbage app won’t connect to any wifi. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2024-04-21* Just got this camera and the app won’t connect to any wifi or phone- just keeps saying times out. Please fix this! ### 1/5 — Chph *2023-11-12* I bought a Zx -60 yesterday and downloaded the app ZX-action it is coming up with nothing Why why Why????? ### 1/5 — Cannot connect wifi *2023-11-03* I am having the same problem as previous review. Please help ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2024-11-13, version 1.0.6* When you find out how to use the app it is great for those of you. That don’t know how to use it. Type up a YouTube video. ### 5/5 — Works Great *2023-05-14* At first I was looking everywhere to find the app but then when I just take a peak at the manual, saved me 200$ ### 5/5 — Does What it Says *2022-09-26* Turn on the wifi in the camera settings then connect your phone wifi to the camera, then open the app and connect the camera to the app by selecting the camera as the wifi source you have connected to the phone it might take a couple of attempts to connect. When it finally connects to the app it works perfectly. ### 4/5 — Mmmh pretty buggy *2022-12-15* I downloaded some of my videos from it, and all of them were very bugged out. How do I fix this? ### 4/5 — Need better instructions *2022-10-06* After buying a ZX-ACTION-40 I initially gave this app a 1 star as I couldn’t get the app to load let alone use , however i than read another review that said “After selecting the screen-40” as the wifi choice (a fact the manual doesn’t state (or I couldn’t see)) and hey-presto it worked and worked very , while it’s not a professional editing app (I don’t think it states it is) it’s good enough to give basic camera control via the app & upload great quality photos & video .. and have the price of another certain over priced competitor , recommend the camera & recommend the app Very happy ### 3/5 — app *2026-06-07* the app isn’t too bad, very basic and has trouble connecting to my camera but other than that it works! ### 2/5 — Not sure yet! *2025-07-08* I bought my ZXM-AC3 18 months ago for an overseas trip but it didn’t get used & has sat in the cupboard since. Tonight I loaded the app to my iPhone and like others I had trouble getting the wifi to work. In the end it did connect and although the app is very basic, it works for me. I’ve only rated the app and experience in getting it sorted so far, I’m planning to take it out tomorrow and have a play to get a better idea of how it all works and if I might revise my current 2 stars or not. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
