Crashes cost so much time & money – FiLMiC Remote Review

At first, this app rocked. Lots of functionality, features, ease of use, etc. Was annoying that I couldn’t see audio levels, but that was a small gripe. Then...the crashing started. All the time. Just got done with a video shoot that should have taken 15m, but instead, took and hour and half. Why? Because Flimic Remote kept crashing the FlimicPro app on the iPhone. Every time that happens, ALL of the footage is lost. Poof. Gone. So it means starting over. Then the crash happens again. Then again. Then again. I counted 6 times that the app crashed, even after both devices were restarted. Finally, I just had to use the app on my iPad Pro to get focus/exposure, then shut-off the iPad. Once I did that, Filmic had no problem completing the takes without crashing. This makes it pretty clear this is a connectivity problem between FilmicPro running on my iPhone 11Pro and Filmic Remote running on my iPad. Fix this, team. It’s ridiculous at this point, and only seems to be getting worse every week.
