Kodak Luma 4+

So much potential, but..

I purchased the Luma 350 in hopes of using it to show images with fellow photographers on Workshops. Unfortunately the gallery app only allows viewing of one image at a time. There are no forward or back buttons, you have to exit from the gallery and then select another photo to load. There is zero documentation for this as well. I can connect via mirroring (AirPlay) for audio only, which kind of defeats the purpose. On a positive note I was able to play a movie off of the USB drive. Clicking on the movie file launches a native video app with good features. The Luma 350 is today’s Kodak Carousel projector. Unfortunately the lack of good software and good documentation makes it barely usable.

Useless and Nonfunctional 90% of the Time

I really wanted to American businesses a solid when I purchased the Luma 350 projector. I couldn’t be more disappointed. I was hoping the app would make the OS functional, but I was wrong. Why have Netflix when you are unable to navigate or scroll with the cursor? It’s even worse using this app. Less functional than the awful remote. The app pairs ok, but none of the functions work right down to the power button on the app. Scroll doesn’t work. Just the tap, tap, tap to move a cursor from icon to icon in the menu, and then nothing. This will be deleted and the projector returned. Just awful.

Hello! I am sorry to hear that. Navigating the Netflix application on the projector can be difficult. Please be sure to use two fingers when scrolling in the application and making a selection instead of one. Also, have you tried the screen mirroring feature? That seems to also be helpful as well. If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us at RND@CAGlobal.com. Kind Regards, Rose

This app...

..is an unreliable P.O.S. Once it’s connected to the projector, everything is fine. It’s the getting connected that’s the problem. I’m standing within 12” of my Luma and I keep getting “Device not found” repeatedly for 10+ minutes every single time I use it. Which is twice a day every day for the last 2 weeks. The projector goes to the screen saver because it’s idle, waiting for this Kodak App to finally do what is requisite. If I need to hang some chicken bones and pray to a totemic spirit of the Age of Communication to get this app to work reliably, then I will gladly do so. Plaz halp.

Again... Please help
