Lag in control ruins the app.

I certainly appreciate being able to frame a shot on the bigger screen of my iPad, but I downloaded this so I could adjust focus while recording without having to tap the screen and create that little shake in my video. For this, it’s useless. Here’s why. I want to gently and smoothly go from focused on a character in the foreground to the one in the background. Filmic pro has this feature. You can set two focal lengths and set a speed to go from one to the other. It can go fast or very slow or everything in between. It’s buttery smooth. BUT!!! When you use the remote to do this, the lag makes it so that when you start the buttery smooth process of changing from one focus to the next, the signal from the remote doesn’t change the focus smoothly. The phone gets no signal to change for a moment, so nothing does, then, when the remote device is done with the smooth change it focus, that signal gets sent to the recording phone. So when you play back the video, what you have is the opposite of buttery smooth. It is a jagged snapping from one focal length to another. It makes the best feature of the remote literally unusable. It’s not a remote, it’s a laggy monitor. Not useless, but a million miles from what it purports to be.
Apple Watch option needed

Still useless

Filmic pro always crashes within one or two minutes after remote is engaged. I received a response to my initial review. I followed the developers instructions to delete and reload both apps. Same problem. I advised the developer but have not received a response. That was about two weeks ago.

What a joke

This doesn’t control anything and it’s all buggy with the iPhone 11 Pro. You are charging $10 for something that doesn’t work!!!
Almost unusable due to crashes and lag.

My video blog plans have been thwarted nearly every time due to crashes. I have an iPad and a second Iphone that I try to use as field monitors but 75% of the time it doesn’t work. I’m holding out hope though because I really like the filmic pro app.
Love the idea, not the execution.

Tried to connect via hotspot and it never worked. Over WiFi was fine but laggy and froze a bit. It’d be great to have Osmo Mobile 2 gimbal control in this app. Would really be a dope feature.
It doesn’t recognize my phone even with Bluetooth on

No matter what I do, it will not allow my Bluetooth remote to work.
Works great but missing one feature

The app works great and is perfect for being a field monitor for when I don’t have a camera person. The one thing it seems to miss is the ability to have the larger auto focus/auto exposure boxes when you double tap on screen.
