AOS AutoCAPTURE 4+

Easy to use, especially for capturing video

Our dealer group implemented this recently and we now use it instead of a photographer. It’s fairly straightforward and has features to help get the camera to take the right angle but now find it easy and quick. Def need a tripod though.

Love that you can capture all the other types of images in one app.

Def like video function. Good stabilisers and the short sections mean it looks better than what we were uploading.

Overall easy and quick to use.

Functional but severely lacking in features

The app gets the job done, but it’s lacking the most basic of features that can turn what is supposed to be a quick job into pure frustration.

For instance - why is there no “tap to focus/expose” implemented? The amount of times I’ve had to make huge adjustments to the shot is ridiculous at this point. Or a photo being improperly exposed to begin with. What is the need for it? SURELY it’s already baked into the camera API?

My next frustration (and could even be considered a way to fix the above issue) is why is there not the ability to just import from the photo library? I’ve gone from using an iPhone X to now an iPhone 12 Pro and in the stock photo app (or any other app that uses the standard camera API well) the photos are exemplary. Using this app, all photos of the cars we shoot now are so badly exposed or out of focus etc etc. Surely the ability to import from the photo library would work better?

Thirdly, why is it still not optimised for the newer displays that have now been around for over 3 years? It can be a pain having to type on a condensed keyboard, as well as having such a small portion of the display available to use.

The actual function of uploading the photos and sending videos to customers does work as expected, but the rest of this app needs a lot of work.

Crashes, lags, looses progress

I appreciate the idea of the app and how it’s meant to improve the process of taking pictures of stock.

However this app is poorly made, not optimised and lacking really obvious features. I used to spend 5 minutes with a car, running around with my DSLR but not 20 minutes.

The app regularly crashes and looses all progress. Why is progress not saved as you go on ? Why is there no drafts/in process section.

The auto level feature has a mind of its own. Sometimes I’ll end up having to hold my phone above my head to get a shot.

When doing the videos of the car why is there redo but that doesn’t start the entire progress again ?

I am using an iPhone XS Max so it is more than capable of running this app.

I’d love to write a more positive review but as the app currently stands I cannot. Much improvement needed. An update every 3 months just isn’t good enough.

I’d be happy to be contacted to help test new features etc.
