CameraVision App Reviews

This app is billed as a potential document camera replacement, but who wants a document camera that focuses on a hand instead of the document? Think of the teachers that use this to do worked examples and demonstrations and their students see constant focus shifting. WHAT KIND OF DEVELOPER IGNORES A VITAL PART OF AN APP FOR YEARS UPON YEARS?

I was looking for something that could be used as a live camera streamed to my Apple TV. This worked like a charm the first time I fired it up. My intentions were to use it to help with some homeschooling projects. Other uses are obvious such as presentations, document viewer, etc. Thanks for making the exact app I was hunting for!

On my iPhone 6s the image seen on-screen and sent to the HDMI is cropped to something slightly less than a full 1080p image. This results in black bars on two sides of the image on my HDMI tv. iOS 12.3.1. If I record the output and use it as the source for a movie, I’ll have a lot more work to do than if I was getting a true 1080p signal. If this is a bug, and it gets fixed, I’d up my rating to a 5.

iOS doesn’t allow the camera app to stay in landscape mode when air playing to a smartTV.. this app is EXACTLY the perfect fix to this issue (seriously, Apple??). Now I can clamp my phone to a shelf and project pottery demos from the wheel and painting demos from my desk in FULL SCREEN. So thankful for this and hope it’ll make my classroom that much easier. Can’t wait to test it out on Monday.

I’ve just been testing this briefly and so far it looks great. But I noticed that if I set video recording to 60fps in the main camera app, I get a much lower latency preview over USB (QuickTime Player). That doesn’t seem to benefit this app, though. Could you somehow switch it to use the the 60fps preview mode if available?

I absolutely love this app. I use it to show what I am demonstrating in my quilting classes. I open that app on my phone and place my phone in an overhead mount connected via HDMI cable to a TV. All my students can see what I am doing on the TV display. Much better class experience for all.

If you are looking to use your iPhone as a full screen video source in OBS or livestreaming, this is the app you need. In fact, it's the only one I have ever found. It works perfectly. $1 is a steal for this, please support this dev because this product is gold.

Does extactly as shown. Hoping to see video recording when presenting. That would be a great plus in the future...

I have iPhone 4 and a composite cable and it works fast and easily with a tv. I'm using a phone to transmit images to all the TVs at the school I work at, what a time we're living in!

I love this app, we needed an extra document camera for the classroom and it works perfectly!!!

This app works great, but it would be cool if it used the microphone to pick up sound. It would also be cool if you could use an apple tv for display.

It does exactly as advertised, totally recommended. Plus: Great refresh rate.

Turn on AirPlay with mirroring and it displays a presentation output, all tools and notices are only visible on your phone. Only problem is a weird thing where my batter drops to 1% when I start using it even though my battery is not dead.

I use this app with Apple TV AirPlay, and it is awesome. Especially with the new IPhone 6s camera.

This app is straightforward and intuitive. Worked exactly as needed- only a video shows on the projector screen with no controls.

Iphone 11 now hs a wider lens. There should be an update that supports it

I get no full screen on iPad 20201007 .

Wanted to use this app to pipe camera feed from my phone into a live stream. It connected great the first time for a few minutes, but now I just get an alert that says “No External Display” I tried deleting and restarting with no luck. I know I am connected because my screen is mirroring in obs. Please fix!

I used this app for years in my classroom. It was the simplest and cheapest way to get a document camera, and the image was always so clear and high quality. I recommended it to everyone. But this summer I upgraded my phone to a 13 Pro, and the image is always upside down. The app will rotate to the side, but will not go upside down to project images. I am disappointed. I really loved this app. Too bad the developers have ignored it for so long.

couldnt get it to work with apple mirror play and eventually couldnt get mirror play working after using the app. couldnt get it to detect an external hdmi out.

4K out is not supported, and you can’t switch rear lenses. Those features are essential.
