Review on Stabilizer Rotation Tracking Hands Free Shooting Camera & Photo and Video by Bryan Murphy

Revainrating 2 out of 5

App needs an update

This gimbal works but the app needs an update. Installing my phone on the gimbal is very easy and it holds up very well. The built-in rechargeable battery makes it easy to take it anywhere without worrying about being plugged in while using it. The app may need some improvements. It is very easy to install and connect to my phone and stabilizer. Once installed, you have the choice between CAM or LIVE. When I first used it, I couldn't go back to the main screen once I selected one of them. I would have to exit and restart the app. Since then he has changed. Now I can return to the main screen after selecting one of them. The app will automatically take a photo or video once you tap UNLOCK. If you don't click "UNLOCK" the app won't work at all. It doesn't follow your face or object at all. Following an object doesn't work very well either. Sometimes it will follow him. Sometimes not. The FACE option is annoying because it takes a photo or video (depending on what you have enabled) as soon as it detects a face. Not only can you check the settings. This will continue until you exit the main screen. Once you "UNLOCK" it, you cannot "LOCK" it again. The "SETTINGS/CONFIGURATION" option is also useless as it only has 3 options (Beauty, Continuous Photo, Countdown Sound). All this could only be on the main page, since there are already other options there. I want to set it up so it doesn't take a photo or video until I tell it to. It's all controlled by the app, and because the app is like that, it renders it useless. I hope they fix the app so it only takes photos or videos when you tell it to. I want to be able to test face or object recognition without constantly taking a photo or video. Some effects in the app could also be improved. If your phone is placed horizontally, the effect (snowflake, shooting star, etc.) will move from left to right as if the phone were placed vertically. It doesn't feel like the orientation of the phone has changed. This too could be improved.

Great concept but it's a bit glitchy

A little buggy and uncooperative

Fun little device, but lacking.
