User Reviews and Ratings
★★★☆☆Subscription model, boo
Would love to buy this app. But $11/month subscription is a bust. Not going to recommend to anyone. I’m already lossing the ability to use my phone when using it as a webcam, and the developer is expecting to collect a premium fee for this? Yikes.
★★★★★I teach a broadcasting class:
I am a broadcasting class. Level 1 Low tech student broadcasting with iPhone and iPad cameras. So Cool! Contact me. A
★★★☆☆Not ideal for an M1 iPad at distances longer than 15ft
Powered (active) USB-C (male) to USB-C (male) extension cables go up to 15ft at this time, but unfortunately it's not long enough for my use case. Your mileage may vary, but the video freezes quite often on OBS and I have to reboot it every time, taking my focus away from my stream.
★★★★★Fantastic alternative to webcams!
This is such a great app if you use OBS for anything. It connects and just works. Only thing I’m hoping they add is manual aperture control, as the app is lacking but new iPhones support it.
★★★★★IOS input plug-in updated for OBS 28
I just wanted to express my gratitude for how quickly the developer updated their OBS plug-in to use this app to be compatible with OBS 28. Also, since that plug-in is only applicable for people using the USB input, just a note that until OBS NDI plug-in is updated by its developer (supposedly in progress), you can download the NDI tools from Newtek and use the NDI virtual input program to patch an NDI stream to a webcam stream and bring it in to OBS that way.
