2024-02-05	Jo*****	Did not take a single photo, when hooked up by cable to my Canon dslr. And as others have said, it turns your volume all the way up, and screeches a loud noise. If you turn it down, it immediately turns it back up. Doesn't work anyway, so I deleted it.

2022-12-10	Pr*****	Why it stops working with Android 12 phones? I have been using this app from so many years. Recently upgraded my phone and now it doesn't work.

2021-12-30	Gr*****	very useful, if your phone has IR. I have a proprietary IR device (battery always low) and 2 wired remotes and the camera has WiFi control but I still find it easier to use this app

2021-08-23	Th*****	Not enough detail about how BT to BT would work . No detail about what premium version offers . Free version works for a single Pentax camera by IR by the looks of it. Uninstalled

2021-05-22	Da*****	Brilliant. I've got a Nikon D3400, the app is allowing me to do time lapse and all sorts of other stuff. There's a Nikon app that I can't get to work because it uses Bluetooth but this app uses the IR Blaster perfectly. Absolutely fantastic.

2020-12-13	Ku*****	This app rocks! It's definitely old and outdated but why fix something that's not broken? I can confirm that it works with the sony a6500 (probably the whole alpha range). Don't forget to enable remote control on the camera first. Really nice to have a remote shutter on your phone. I also have a wired shutter but this is excellent when traveling light!

2020-07-09	Lu*****	Awesome. Simple and easy to understand interface.Works perfectly with my Nikon d3300. You must have an ir blaster on your phone though. I'm using redmi note 8 to make timelapses.

2020-04-21	A *****	It says you can use IR or Bluetooth in the description. However in app only IR and Cable is an option.
