Seems like a very powerful app

Wish I had found this earlier. A lot of thought has gone into this app and I really like the control available for overlays / layers. Live streaming sport, so the ability to easily add sponsors’ logos is great.

I have now used this app to stream live sports for prolonged periods and I cannot fault the app or the support team on the few occasions I have asked them questions. This app is extremely reliable and compared with other apps I have tried, it is remarkable that the developers have managed to resist creating a subscription based serviced until now. If you want a reliable app with top features and excellent support then this is the app to choose for your live streams.

Excellent

Brilliant and simple to use app, works perfectly for my use case, which is streaming to an RTMP server. Haven’t had a single problem at all so far. Very impressed.

Thank you very much!

Audio Garbled at times. And crashing

This app could be the powerhouse when it comes to mobile streaming. It has the best audio and visual settings out there. Totally incredible. It does sometimes have garbled audio when streaming, and in a recent test the App crashed causing me to loose my stream totally. Hopefully the developers will address these issues. I’d happily pay for this app if reliability could be improved.
