Keeps crashing.
Doesn’t actually work. You start it up, and it says it has stopped.
It crashes immediately when opening.
Won't even open
Bt in landscape mode description is not fit in the columns
I was looking for an app like this but there weren't too many at all. This app could be better, like save the info when exiting?
Nice idea but there's no reason a little app like this should be 4.5mb. And certainly no reason to prevent it from being moved to the SD card.
Needs to be able to add letters to scenes (1B, etc...).
Good idea, with some good implementation decisions. Needs work on landscape mode (I'd suggest focusing on that!) But thanks for raising the bar :)
Can only see bottom half of text on Nexus 7. Free.
Needs running timecode till slate. Larger timecode text.
Definitely one of the best free android slate/film making apps our there, but would like to have control over the time code and a part for the name of the Cameraman, but over all a great free app. There are also no ads to cover up the screen which is great as I found that allot of other free slate apps had ads. I plan on using it for my short film I am shooting tomorrow. Thanks!
Please fix time code and landscape mode!!!
Moving time code and easier take change would be great but this is still great for free. Thanks dev keep up the good work!
No timcode... what's the use?
Descent for free. But needs to work in landscape mode.
Needs to be able to type letters in the scene section. Some filmmakers use scene names like "28A". Other than that good. Maybe clap sound should be louder. or a volume control within the app. I shouldn't have to make my phone louder manually. Should have volume control.
Make your frame count accurate to your final frame slot on tc and you'll be in business.
I think it is a nice app
My excitement was dashed. I cant see how to make clapper clap! On my ZTE V9
Needs a delay prior to the sticks changing state.
There's no visual mark, so not very useful. Doesn't do anything other than make a sound and display text.
Doesn't work on HTC
Waist of a download
I wanted this to be good. However its more like 4 megs and has a delay between the sticks hitting and the sound. Also, it is hard to make it work.
I've used this app to sync several shoots now. It works great. However, not being able to use letters for shot numbers is a real pain. I have to use sticky notes to write "scene 1A". Merge the scene and shot fields and make it a combo number + letter field, and you have a 5 star app.
This is a great start to what will be an incredibly useful app. The ability to add letters into the shot fields would be useful, as would more control of the time. Also, I have noticed that the fonts do not translate well in landscape orientation. I am having the issue on both my Droid Bionic and my Transformer Infinity tablet. I can easily work around that at this point, and I am very happy with the discovery of this app. Please keep the development up! The small, independent movie scene can use all of the low cost/free tools possible.
NO FUNCTIONAL LANDSCAPE MODE. No options to input letters for SCENE / SHOT / TAKE, only numbers. No way to track the date. Might be good for beginners, but they'll learn quickly to either find a better app or acquire a REAL slate board.
Bravo! A counting timecode would be useful. Also a button to tap to increase the take number, but other than that this is quite a find. Thanks!
Good effort but really needs some work...cannot change very many of the text fields and NONE of the timecode fields...maybe the update will fix it...
ok for small projects & still images. Needs to work in landscape mode + easy one push button to advance takes. Timestamp is only clock, not tape time
Would love to see the improved version that has a working time code, count down, sound recording, and upload online.
Has major potential. Would love to see running time code and logging like the apple app. Please fix the display for landscape mode! G1
Thanks for making this.. couple bugs: on g2 in landscape mode the text is not visible. A color chart and removing fields would be great!
nice app dude... %^$&^&^% timecode runs in fps, while shooting film the last frame of the second would be 23 then it increments 1 second and continues
It just didn't run on my Droid X. I could't figure out how to work the clapper.
It doesn't fill the screen. There doesn't seem to be a way to access several of the fields. I can't see a way to get it to clap for sync.
Needs time code controls not useful in present state. Not sure why the others think it is so awesome. Has potential though.
There's a big delay in the clapping sound, I suggest putting that near the top of your priority list. Not uninstalling, but I hope you uodate this soon ^^

Only works on vertical mode, does not advance take number automatically. Fkn fail massively
