No usb
Cant use usb
Only microphone without sound of a launched app
That’s sad.
It Stopped Working
It keeps pausing the screen mirror for no reason but it is easily embeddable though so 3 stars
Force Landscape doesn't work anymore
The new release broke Force Landscape option for screensharing. It does not force at all. It used to work on the earlier version
doesn’t work
doesn’t work
Bom só precisa de uns ajustes
Depois da última atualização a tela fica preta ao iniciar a câmera e necessita bloquear a câmera a habilitar novamente. Os ícones de inverter a câmera e espelhar são muitos semelhantes.
Screenshare doesnt work
Screenshare doesnt seem to work. Latest iOS15 installed … when you click start, theres no option for OBS, just other things.
Great!
Worked wonderfully for me from the start, I just can’t figure out how to change to the wide angle camera, if that’s even supported right now, 5 stars for wonderful free functionality
Need help please fix this
Hello I tried screen share frist time and taped broadcast button when i share but its now showing and tried to select Recorder option but its not choosimg also broadcasting is not starting
Ipad screen share don't work
Plz how how we shall fix it ? It starts ok but after 10 s it doesn't show screen and you need to open vdo app again, then 10 s it works properly, and crush again (((
Worked earlier, broken now
I’ve used this app a bit in the past and never knew it was going to be broken today. For some reason, there are a lot more duplicated items of the same option on the home page, you aren’t able to see the camera on the phone when you select it, and sharing is weird as it freezes the video feed after the app has been inactive for a little while. Please fix these as Apple might make more of this app not function properly with all the implementations that are being deprecated and added!!!
Great App
This app is amazing thanks devs
Meh
Work but freeze after 5 sec on OBS
Good but the Screen dosen’t work
My Iphone it’s at the recent version
Streaming Pauses Inexplicably
I’m a fellow storm chaser, and I’ve used this app for several chases this year. For signal, I run a bonded StarLink, AT&T, and T-Mobile signal and average 145 Mbps download/18 Mbps upload. For reasons unknown, the video on the stream will randomly pause and never reset unless I manually close out of and reselect the camera source. The audio will continue capturing, but the video stops. I had to reset the video -30 times during a three hour chase. That being said, the video quality when it is working is great, which is why I’m hoping this bug is worked through, because this has the potential to be a 5-star app.
5 star review right now!
As of now, it seems free not freemium, cant wait to get comfy with it and then be greeted with a pro option in a couple weeks, i will come back and trash it if they ever try to be market trendy.
Its not working
It suddenly stops to work every time, I tried everything and I keep having this problem
Stream Freezes
Hey all, we here at Michigan Storm Chasers tried multiple phones for this and for whatever reason the stream freezes after 20 seconds for every single one. All were on different connections and were all different types of phones. Please look into this, or we will have no choice but to look elsewhere. :( App design itself is amazing and easy to stream. Custom URL’s that don’t change is a huge plus.
A multitude of uses!
This is perfect for my home use, or if leave the house and I need to keep a close eye on my pets. It gives me a lot of peace and mind. However there is so much great functionality with this app that it over exceeds my expectations. That’s how jam packed this amazing app is!
Does not not work
Makes no sense how to screen share to obs it shows my camara but not my screen
Please fix the issue about bluetooth microphone
I guess this issue can be fixed in app even thought can not be fixed in web.
I use this for YT vids
One word.... Amazing...
Simply does not work at all
I‘ve spent about two hours trying to get this app to work on an M2 iPad Pro, with absolutely no success. I regularly use the web version of vdo.ninja, so I had a direct comparison. Followed all the steps in the app description, read all of the help files, tried all possible sources - no luck. The app simply does not transfer any data.
Works just perfect!
i never leave reviews for apps, but this app literally does exactly what i want and with surprisingly more functionality than i expected! i can use my phone as a webcam for OBS wirelessly, now i can stream cooking, walking my dog, whatever i want!
Thank you
I know you don’t have many reviews yet, but thank you. Amazing work you’re doing!
works flawless
why can’t everything be this free and easy. big love to the developer 🙏
