Works great & great response from devs
Somps

2019-09-26 To me, developer response is very important and this developer has been very responsive to me. I had a problem viewing videos and it turned out that they had already fixed it and I just needed to update it. I like CamRanger how I can view all of my external drives as well as internal. It’s fast and I can get to all of my pix & videos. Thank you dev!


iOS 13 broke it
Overvision

Can no longer view images. Not pngs, or jpegs. Nothing. Please update your app.


Video playback buggy
sigdear

Love the app, I’ve been using it for a while but video playback is extremely buggy even over a very solid network connection. Scrubbing through video, pausing, or skipping 10 seconds can cause the video not to work.


Doesn’t work
Ron Acct#1

iPad. Air 2 and Mac Mohave. Works close to router but in the next room where all other apps work fine, this one doesn’t. Have to rescan QR code every time. Ever time I close the app I must rescan QR code.


BIG fan
VaporeonTrainer

I love this. AND the recently added auto play next video feature is EXTREMELY convenient. I wrote a positive review last year, but the app has gotten much better since then. I have a cloud drive and the app for it is straight TRASH and Plex is too slow, cumbersome, and makes my laptop nearly overheat every time I have used it. There’s nothing out there like this app. Hopefully you will continue to improve this app and add lots more features. Thumbnails, shuffle, and audio/subtitle options would be good additions, but the app is still great as it is now. Keep up the good work!


Incredible

I recently contacted the developer a few months back saying it wasn’t working and gave up. Boy was that a mistake lol. After deciding to try it again, I find not only does it access everything on your main drive, It also is linked to all the other drives hooked into my Mac. What a pleasant surprise! Great app


It’s good and not good
centerofme

I mean for what I’ve found so far it’s the best of the apps I can find ... they have a tv version and phone and it plays almost any type of file which is nice but it gets stuck a lot and then it doesn’t seem to do anything without closing the whole app and reloading and it’s just buggy - it needs far more error checking and when playing an audio or video file it needs better controls and it needs to create a non-rigid buffer with previews meaning it lets you go past the point of what’s in the buffer but obv plays smoother if it is. Thumb previews of image or video files would be nice too - other than that it does what it does and if the apps that claim to do this it’s the best I’ve found so far


Simple Fast and Unbelievably Effective

Set up in less that 5 minutes. Wow!


Thank you for the Apple TV support!
iCMW

The app works well and it’s nice to see development support for Apple TV - utilities like this are very rare on tvOS. Some things about the Apple TV version: The UI could be updated, with perhaps options for background screen color and folder color preferences. Also, the layout could be simplified so that not so much space is wasted on the left side of the screen, allowing more space for listing files. The Mac Helper installer works very well and it’s the easiest, quickest and most reliable method of syncing up an Apple TV to a computer on the same network. Well done and keep up the good work. Utilities like this are very rare and very useful.
