All photos taken using my Nexus 4 save as green and pink blurs. Kinda looks like they were corrupted. Anyways I am unable to take any pictures.

Great app! So much potential! Every so often it causes my Smart Watch 1 to shut off, but its not common. One thing I would like to see is the ability to turn on the flash when streaming the video in dark lighting.

K70%
by K####:

Great app very responsive developer. Worth purchasing other camera apps are outdated by 4 to 8 months Pictures don't save in rapid tap not worried about that. But they do not save when taping slowly 1 out 5 will save taping slowly like once every 5 sec to 10 sec between each tap I have the note 3 verizon kitkat 4.4.2 With Sony sw2.

I'm a single dad, so now keeping an eye on my 3 yr old in his play room while I'm taking a dump is alot less awkward!

Worked nicely on my GS3 and just got the note 3, haven't used it with the note yet but I expect the same performance if not better.

Hello Developer, not opening anymore, sometimes after 4 or 5 attemps has opened, but most time not opening since Smartwatch 2 update

I70%
by I####:

on sw2 when I rotate the phone the feed changes aspect ratio on the watch. Also would be great to have a function where the screen gets blacked out or something on the phone so that it can be placed without obvious recording going on. Cool idea!

For some reason, when I firtst bought the app, it charged my card and kept failing to install.. needless to say, I was really ticked. It was only about $3 but I feel that if I let this slide now I'll get "scammed" bigger/better later. I did contact Dave Smart via email and he was so generous as to send me a link to download the app. He tried very hard to help me out with my issue despite my aggression and the app works beautifully. You get what is described nothing less and it's a really fun/interesting app

Really useful as a baby monitor. When baby moves around the watch vibrates so I can take a peek at him! Just make sure phone is plugged into a charger or the phone battery will go flat quite quickly.

love the app....but This would have got 5 stars if it did not save all photos on the sd card. Unfortunately my Xperia S (The flagship phone for the smartwatch) does not use an sd card and so no images are stored :(
