[@Khlaatu]

Thanks for the tutorial: Manually changing the camera settings in the app is really useful. Were you able to save those settings so that if you need to leave the project (disconnect remote camera - usually a phone) you can come back to to it and have those same settings again? Does a person need to note down each manual setting used and re-adjust them each time each time the app is opened? When reconnecting the remote camera all settings are reverted to Automatic in the app. It makes it really difficult to maintain consistency in the scene when you need to spend ages fine tuning focus, zoom, WB, exposure, ISO, etc each time you want to carry on with a project. Perhaps this isn't a problem with a DSLR and only with a phone. Any insight is appreciated.

[@joe1205]

I have two phones, one as a camera, and the other for control. I have been having problems with the connection recently and I don't know what is wrong. I press the shutter button on the control phone and it shows the progress bar. Once the bar reaches the end it starts again and never stops. I have tried turning it on and off again and even just leaving it alone but nothing seems to work. This is really affecting my stop motion schedule as I want to release it before Christmas but I'm just over half way animating because it does this every time I turn it on recently. Do you know what is wrong with it or what I can do instead? I'll try another phone if this one doesn't work by the end of today.

[@nicolecabrera9317]

I think I am having the same issue but with my rebel t3i, did you ever find a solution? I think the camera is using my laptop for charing instead of for the app. As of writing this comment, for whatever reason it began to work. I ended up connecting the USB part of it to one of apples USB to C cable and put it in the non charging port of my adapter. It seems that worked for me but we will see if it is a long term solution. I also ordered another cable but it meant to be for "data transferring" vs charging maybe that might make a difference. Edit: After some messing around with the my camera and the app I found something that might work. When I have the camera in MF I just turn the lens focus point and my laptop/stop motion notices I want to use the camera for live viewing and the camera appears on my screen. Hope this helps for those with the same issue!
