Podo Camera (5MP, 2016+)

I have tried to connect my Podo since receiving it, but to no avail. The app recognizes my Podo, but will not stay connected for more than 3 seconds. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, but have not had any luck. C'mon Podo, I wanna take some stellar pics!

Connection issues!!! Im unable to reconnect any of my 4 podos reliably after the initial setup process (which is also shoddy). Tried several phones/ipad/samsung/htc and all have issues. I now have 4 hunks of expensive blue plastic sitting on my desk.

Takes a long time to detect camera. Option to have better preview quality does not work ei the quality remains the same. Different resolution option would be a good feature to add. The camera quality itself is terrible. Everything is pixelated and has a slow refresh rate.

Got my Podo today and was super excited to play with it. App won't connect. It only shows the Podo if I have it plugged in (I charged it for 2hrs before trying it out) when it finally shows up on the app it spins on connecting for about 30 seconds then it says "touch to connect to a Podo". I get that it's a Kickstarter but c'mon you had experience already. How is this acceptable?

The podo app shows the Bluetooth connection in the app when trying to connect but when I try to click on it to connect it just freezes the whole app and shuts down. I have to uninstall then reinstall everytime I want to use the camera. Also the camera quality isn't the best and is quite pixelated

Can't connect to the camera, I click on my podo, it then disappears in the description. If I then click skip the app crashes.

Give me my money back! Don't buy any podo product as it can't even connect. Buy some food instead of this joke.

Like other reviewers connection issues let the podo down. Frustrating that you have to reconnect so often. Makes it less then useful.

When I can connect to it the camera and app work brilliantly however is very buggy Trying to connect the camera to phone. Can take 10+ attempts to connect and can include full unis tall and reinstall of app to connect..... not ideal

Nothing works. When I can get it to connect, it won't work in multi mode, won't record videos, and only produces single grainy pictures if I ever get it to work at all. Product does not live up to the hype or even basic expectations of functionality.

Got two; neither work. Support is absolutely worthless. Great idea; garbage app. Been trying to get helpthru support for 3 weeks now... :(

Thing won't connect to my podo, crashes when I try. Not sure how I can use the app otherwise.

Cannot connect to my phone at all, despite being brand new and fully charged. It detects that it's available to connect on the bottom, but cannot connect when I select it to pair with device. Please fix this!

This is honestly the worst purchase I have ever made. Majorly delayed and received the podo and now won't connect. Im sure the replacement i need eill take months.I wouldn't recommend this to my worst enemy.

I had it connected for the first few days I received my podo but to no avail can I get it to connect again. My husband can't get his to connect at all.

Just be patient! Yes that's hard but if you select the camera and wait it will connect eventually. Even tho the app could use improvement, the amazing pictures I've taken with it are worth the effort

Hardly ever connects to Podo, and when it does the app freezes . Unfortunately never used Podo!

Camera won't connect. Tried uninstalling multiple times, doesn't work. Tried using the old app, still won't work.

For Iphones, it works alright but for android (LG-V20) nothing.

Charged the full hour, as instructed. Connected to my Turbo 2 easily. Took pictures easily enough.

Is not connecting, is useless, I tried on 3 different phones and not connecting to any. The app is not working, or is the podo?

The podo app kept shutting down on Google pixel and need to make the podo app better

Connects for preview, but doesnt save any pictures.

App will not allow camera to link to device

Wouldn't connect to podo camera.

can't pair with my phone. Come on guys. Come on. :/

Works great, looks like the freezing on taking a single photo is now fixed, awesome. Some connection issues but persistence was what got me there in the end, a bit of strangeness with renaming the Podo but managed to sort it out. To polish this off nicely a battery indicator of some sort would be great, particularly while charging, maybe utilize the double tap and the LED's to show the charge level (if it's possible with the hardware). Other than that though I'm pretty happy, finally able to take some family pics

I've already made some great time lapses with this camera. The app takes some time to navigate through the bugs, but overall I'm very satisfied. Can't wait to see how this app improves over time.

The user interface is not intuitive at all. I've renamed my podos, but when I connect it is the devices internal name I see. I find it quite bizarre that I have to connect to the podo with a computer to get the videos or time-lapse stills from the device. Surely these could also be pulled down to the hand held and edited by another app on the phone? This feels like it has a long way to go... I wouldn't want to be hanging the to my kids to use, as was the original intention I had when I purchased them for my Christmas delivery, which arrived in February...

So disappointed. Wouldn't pair with my galaxy S4, pairs with an S5 with lots of issues and disconnecting, and now won't pair with my new S8. Feels like a waste of money given to a company that doesn't care about customer service

However much I try, it won't save videos.. As this was the main reason I bought the podo in the first place, it's pretty useless to me..

After every photo it hangs. Still does after the update. Awesome.

Won't connect at all now.

First up, this is great work for early stage of release by Podo. Camera produces great photo and video quality. Once some of the app UX is ironed out and better support docs released to explain a couple of things I'll be very happy and I'm hard to please.

Works right off. Battery status will be useful. Let's me capture quick pictures. Don't expect crisp pictures though. Should have gotten a second unit.

Connection works for me, but after every photo, Podo doesn't return to shooting mode, app is stuck. Have to close app, disconnect Podo and restart to take photo. Timelapse mode didn't work at all. Didn't take even one photo.

I am unable to pair the camera to samsung edge s7...podo is seen over bluetooth but when its placed on the phone the podo disappears....

Just got it, paired easily, works great so far! I cannot believe there is no way to know the battery life, hopefully this will be added in the app!

I install the app to my HTC phone and can not connect to podo...it's just showing connected after that disappear and ask to find podo again

App works but buggy. Connection sometimes lost or can't be found. Transfer photo via Bluetooth error if too many files.
