Firstly, I don't understand why it needs mic and location permissions to simply start. Second, it crashes often, especially after long downloads. Third, the UX part is poor at best. Would not recommend.

Absolutely useless piece of junk. UI is terrible with extremely limited functionality. The ONE interesting function was the ability to transfer files directly to my phone, but the transfer crashed and corrupted the files on the camera rendering them useless. I lost hours of scuba diving recordings! Would rate 0 or negative stars if I could. Absolute trash...stay away!

Hi, I have a Crosstour Action Camera, it recommended DV King app, which is utterly awful. I searched the other options and found this, it worked perfectly, connected immediately to my camera, operated the camera via my mobile, everything is easy to use, and there's a help button to overcome any issues. I have zero tolerance for the must have apps, that don't work, I have little space to store new apps on my mobile, so having an app work from the off set is great. This meets my needs perfectly.

When it works it works, but it can be complicated to set up and the customer service isnt the best. Most annoying feature is persistant "low battery" warnings that pop up even when the camera is at 50% battery. Please give an option to remove these pop-ups, or at least make them smaller so I can still use my camera during work without annoying pop-ups

App crashes after each file transfer. Can only transfer 1 file at a time and then have to restart app which is very annoying and time consuming. I removed the app and reinstalled but that did not fix the problem. I am using a Samsung Android phone maybe it works better on an iPhone.

Took a few attempts to figure out the sequence of steps to make the connection . After viewing a few 1min video clips the app keeps disconnecting. A low power on battery does help either so keep camera battery plugged in while viewing videos. Need more time to play with app and camera to give this review a better rating. App does work.

Works fine with my CrossTour CT9900 action camera installed on my OnePlus 7 Pro phone. The app seems to let me configure more than I can just from the camera's menu, which is even better. I can see what the camera can see and I can play back videos through the app. I had to add the WiFi details to my phone manually, then connect to the camera's WiFi network manually, and tell the phone to stay connected even though the WiFi network had no Internet access.

This app is absolute garbage- you download a video to it then the app corrupts it and says "this video not supported by the app" and you get black screen. I have lost every single video i've downloaded to it (5 for 5)- there's no tech support and that's it. The programmers and management completely missed creating anything worthwhile. The app does nothing but destroy your videos👍

The app does not work properly with Crosstour 9900 and Samsung S10+. It connects for a while then disconnects... very annoying. Tried a different camera, same result. Shame... please sort out the buggy app... other apps like this don't have the same issue... I have another camera which uses a different app which is fine.

This app does not work to download videos from an AKASO EK7000 Pro. Use the AKASO DV app instead and select any of the EK cameraa options. This one connects just fine but if you select videos to download, it looks like it's downloading them and takes a while to complete, but after transferring you're left with videos of size zero bytes which don't work of course. So, in short, the app doesn't save the videos to your phone. I don't care about the remote control functionality (which seems to work).
