Ratings and Reviews
I can’t start the time-lapse mode even I have bought the access of that function in Apple Store
I have no idea why it shows “capture fail” “actTakePicture : shooting failed”
I found that it's not able to remote all photo taking mode. Remote recording is fine.
The above situation is for my RX0 mk1
Developer Response ,
Hi there,
Could you try this on the latest version (v1.1.1) as we attempted to make some improvements to this for the RX0 and some other models!
Apologies for the issues.
Purchased functionality not tied to your device?
I have bought all paid functions years ago, and over the year it has been working fine except for occasional connection issues. Recently when I was test running my solar eclipse photography setup I have found that the intervalometer feature was gone so I paid again in panic (should have tried restoring purchase first), only to find that feature unavailable again during photographing the solar eclipse, probably because my appstore was logged in to another appleid at that moment. I understand that it is necessary to confirm user’s purchase status but that has been an utter disaster.
Doesn't work for A7R4
Just doesn't work on A7R4 at all, hope it will be supported soon.
Developer Response ,
Hi there,
So this absolutely will be supported soon! You can keep an eye out for updates regarding this (weekly or so) on our Twitter: @Camrote1.
Thanks for your patience!
