User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's effectiveness with cheap USB and external cameras, lack of ads, and support for high resolution, particularly for specialized devices like microscopes. However, multiple reviews highlight compatibility issues with Android 13 and 14, crashes, errors, and problems with saving files. The app could improve by remembering user settings and refining its interface. Overall, it serves its purpose well for many users but has stability and usability concerns on newer platforms.

Pros

Works well with cheap and external USB cameras.
No ads or limitations, providing a clean user experience.
Easy to use with clear privacy policy and local data handling.
Supports high resolution up to 1920x1080.
Useful for niche devices like microscopes and endoscopes.

Cons

Does not work consistently on newer Android versions like Android 13 and 14.
App crashes or shows errors on some devices and configurations.
Lacks ability to remember user settings such as aspect ratio and camera parameters.
Interface has redundant controls and limited customization options for buttons.
Some users report inability to save files or malfunction on certain phone models.

Endoscope! Automatic Set up and Test worked at first try. Thank you nice app!

Thanks for putting up a useful app that just works and isn't full of ads and in app purchase requests! Full screen video of the $2 aliexpress endoscope impulse buy. Take 2 seconds and read the in app instructions for setting up the cam and away you go. Cable button on the cam doesn't do anything but who cares, don't know if it does anything anyways. Easy to understand privacy policy as well! (Tldr everything is just local to the device, no mystery cloud service signup bs FTW!)
