Ratings and reviews

I just put this on my S23 Ultra. I've tried a few things, and they are working fine. The only problem, so far (and it's a big one) is that when I logged in to my BMD Cloud account, The app stopped and won't stay open until I go into the settings and reset all storage and app settings. Then it works. So, no interfacing with the Blackmagic cloud for me until this BUG is fixed. When that happens, I'll change my rating.

Great app, but I have a recurring issue where the viewfinder is completely black and I can no longer change lenses/other camera settings. This is on an updated Pixel 7. It happens after backgrounding and foregrounding the app a few times. The viewfinder will be entirely black until I clear the app's cache and data, even through reboots. I hope the BM team can fix this, because otherwise this is a fantastic app for Android videographers.

I'm so excited to see this app on Android. This would be perfect if I could record videos to my external Samsung T9 SSD as I do with other video recording apps. Maybe it's already possible, but I couldn't find a way to switch the save location. This allowed me to record 4k, 60fps HDR on my Pixel 8 Pro because the device storage can't sustain it. But this combo isn't an option in this app.
