Ratings and reviews

Needs user-defined window-sizing & orientation (framing). Phone framing needs to be independent of laptop display framing. Step 1: enable independent selection of landscape or portrait orientation on the app AND laptop. Currently, selecting "portrait" on the app, holding phone in portrait orientation, the image is unusably clipped (top of my head to top lip are visible). In landscape mode, phone held in portrait, is perfect on the phone, but laptop image is rotated 90 degrees.

The app works very well most of the Time, I do notice the issue where the camera wont work on the second round of use in a single day. Half the time this is because the desktop server was already running. But other times the bug persists. I believe this is a very well made app and with some tiny usability modifications it could be the best of the store.

There's no features list for the pro version before purchase. I purchased it on a whim in hopes that it might be able to record over Wi-Fi in the background, since extensive Googling returned no information on that, nor did checking the in-app purchase features list. Which isn't to say it wasn't worth purchasing, since it has the lowest latency with the highest quality than I can see. But being unable to capture the camera in the background is a dealbreaker I wish I had known about. Word to the wise, Iriun: list the features that come with the Pro purchase.
