And if one phone is itself the hotspot then the bandwidth is higher and connection is more responsive. However it works only with my S5 being the remote and S3 the camera! It was the same problem with another app that was a lot faster due to connection via WiFi direct.

Looks like it connects and then the controller phone crashes. I'm using two LG ls990 phones. I Set static IP for the controller phone and opened port 59141 to that phone and the app only crashes when it connects.

Installed, everything worked wonderfully. Used Galaxy s2 as the camera. Images are blurry but the stock camera isn't.

Connected twice of 26 attempts. Both connections QUICKLY overheated devices, causing them to crash. Thanks but, I'll keep searching.

C70%
by C####:

The image comes out blurry, doesn't seem to use built in camera, its camera seems to have a fixed focus.

C70%
by C####:

A bit flaky, but functional. Of many available apps like this, it took me some time to find one that actually work half decent!

C70%
by C####:

Every time I try to connect my devices the app crashes on the controller side.

H70%
by H####:

- *** Please ADD NIGHT MODE as i don't want to use flash. - We want to use this app without any WiFi hotspot/router rather directly ( camera is hotspot & controller is receiver, as ShareIt file sharing app.)

At least i can see that my other android see by connecting them together, but not for saving pictures.. I didn't get such thing. Also i got force close if i use the lower spec device as a controller and the higher specs as the camera. Further improvement i hope better. Overall it is good. Thanks.
