User Reviews

Runcam Legacy is plagued by connectivity and stability issues. While some users report the app works smoothly and is simple to use, many experiences involve failed or inconsistent connections, frequent crashes, or the app not opening on devices like Pixel 8a and S23. The problem appears device- and OS-dependent, with some phones unable to connect or access the camera, and features like firmware updates, SD card formatting, and advanced modes are missing or hard to find. Users express frustration and indicate GPS permissions and setup quirks exacerbate the problems. Overall, reliability is the major pain point.

Pros

Simple to use
Provides basic camera controls and playback when connected
Some reviewers report the app works well and is usable
Positive feedback from some users (e.g., 'works like a charm')

Cons

Unreliable / intermittent connectivity to cameras; often returns to the Wi‑Fi networks screen or fails to connect
App crashes or fails to open on multiple devices (e.g., Pixel 8a, Pixel 6a) and after GPS prompts
Compatibility issues across devices and OS versions (works on some devices but not others like Pixel 8a, S23, Thumb Pro)
Missing or hard-to-use features; no firmware upgrade option in the app; SD card formatting may require a PC
GPS/permissions prompts causing issues; enabling GPS seems unnecessary and leads to problems

Worked great with my Runcam Thumb Pro W! Also the Thumb Pro works as a webcam

After update to V2.6.5 Everytime I select "connect to camera" it returns me to the WiFi available networks screen where I have already connected. Close all apps, try again and same thing. Using a Runcam 4K.
