Ratings and Reviews
99 cents for a free version!
Very frustrating to learn that I had to pay a dollar for a "free" version of this app. Ads, and not all features are available. But for an additional 2 bucks I can remove the ads and get the rest of the features. This should have been a free app. Works ok, not great. Can't launch the app from my watch like you can the camera app that comes on the watch. But can start and stop video, which was the main reason for getting this.
Full featured?
I am using this app to capture wildlife video from inside a camouflaged tent shooting through a screen. Two things I need to do with this app:
1. Switch to video mode. The app comes up in still photo mode.
2. Auto-Focus lock on infinity rather than macro focus on the screen.
3. Don't timeout and quit the app. This might be an iPhone setting for screen lock but the app also seems to quit after a timeout.
Can't figure out how to do any of these.
If the app can do it, please explain how. If not, please add these simple functions and don't claim you can control all the camera features until you actually can.
Not exactly as advertised
You have to launch both the phone and watch apps separately. The claim of Siri opening it on your phone from your watch (shown in apps intro image) is not true.
The premium feature of blacking out your phone screen is also inaccurate; there is an icon that remains.
Without a true remote feature, you might as well use the Apple shutter app and switch to video on your phone.
