Nice app for Digital Microscopes. I bought a cheap Jiusion Digital Microscope on Amazon, and most of the apps that were recommended, were poorly setup or just didn't work. This ones easy to use and works flawlessly for me. I went ahead and bought the pro version for ad free and to support the development further. Not sure why it doesn't have higher ratings. People need to realize the ad supported version is meant for evaluating. Don't want ad's? Buy it!

Pretty good. I can be critical of apps but this one only asked for permissions that made sense and I plugged them camera in, then it said "hey, I see a cam plugged into USB, wanna use it?" and it worked fine. There aren't ads but there are buttons all over it that encourage buying the %4.99 pro version. No need, the free version will work great for almost everybody.

Finally, an app that does the job. Even a free version works out of the box, as it should - preview, photo and video recording. Give this app a try. Tried 6-8 other borescope/endoscope apps. Majority are: mislead, do different kinds of fishing (ask to install unrelated apps or ask for elevated permissions) over-inflated in size (in 20 megs you can fit Britannica) or poorly written.
