It's supposed to work with the Garmin epix but it doesn't seem to work. The app says it sees the watch but the watch never is able to function. It just says turn on Bluetooth. Which clearly is already on.

Works but awfull interface and graphic, need to pay most of the features. Doesn't matter it's cheap, an app like this shoul be included. A bit dissapointed with all that is Huawei app...

This app is terrible. The interface is clunky, outdated, and feels like it was designed for an early 2000s camera phone. During setup, I noticed an extensive list of vendors they plan to share your data with, it’s overwhelming. After testing it briefly and seeing these issues, I promptly uninstalled it.

If my phone has an ultrawide camera, a 1X and a telephoto camera, this app should support it. Also the post processing is very bad, not even near the default camera app.

A handy little app. Don't get waylaid by the reviews. It's confusing to have 2 devices active and talking to each other, so I think a lot of people just don't get it. (1) You pay to get rid of ads. This is normal. (2) The refresh rate is normal for bluetooth. (3) You can't see much but if you tap the watch 7 times, it goes full screen, and if you swipe down it gets rid of the buttons. (4) This is using camera on your phone. Your watch doesn't have a camera. (5) The developer is very responsive.

The photos it takes are at far lower resolution than my phone is capable of, but it's the bast camera control app available for Garmin. It's also entirely unclear what paying for the premium version of the app does.

It works. A little slow to respond and would like at pinch zoom on the phone app itself (I understand the stepped zoom on the watch controls). If there was a 1.5x zoom it'd be great. But this app really is the only option out there for Garmin watches. There are only like two other apps out there and they only offer a single shutter button with no zoom, light, timer, etc. So I'll take it.

It's not a good experience for the garmin 745. Tried it. It will work with apps installed. But very slow, clunky and image preview is bad on the 745 as resolution is so low. No way it would be worth paying for other features given the poor usability on this device. Might be fine for others.

I'm reviewing the free version. The only real functionality of this app is so that you can take group pictures from a distance. I thought that the camera would open up while the phone was locked, so that if I lost my phone I could also see where it was, but no. This app seems to only open up on the lock screen 2% of the time. I did this on the Fitbit Versa 2.

I spent 8 hours trying to make this application work with my Fitbit Versa 3. Every possible instruction FAQ, and any/all possible on-line information. I tried everything. I gave up. I asked for a refund. I'm tech savvy and I couldn't figure it out could get the watch screen camera view... So frustrating.
