Catapult ThunderCloud

This app has gone downhill. The fact that we can’t screen record anymore something we used to do all the time is beyond ridiculous. Screen recording our film isn’t optional, it’s essential to our work, and you’ve just ripped that away without any solution. I wouldn’t even give it a star. It’s 2025, and you still haven’t fixed it. That’s embarrassing for a company that claims to care about its users. Instead of improving your app, you’re stripping away basic functionality and expecting people to stay? Spoiler: they won’t. You’re going to lose loyal customers, and honestly, you deserve it.

In the most recent update, they took the ability away to screen record any film. This is a major flaw and needs to be fixed asap. We can’t share clips anymore or make highlight films becuase they took away the ability to do this. Going to lose major customers

Let me just preface this review by saying I’ve used many different apps for film and scouting, but by an indescribable margin this app is worse than any of its competitors. It is so incredibly buggy and faulty I wonder if this is actually the beta version of the app and by some miracle the real version will be released to us in the future. There is zero customization to camera angles on the iPhone edition so if the play or cut up has multiple views good luck fast forwarding through all of them just to get to the next play. On top of all those issues which I have been able to deal with despite my inconvenience, the absolute icing on the cake is the recent change to remove the ability to screen mirror. I can understand not being able to airplay as compatibility isn’t always guaranteed between apps and TVs, but screen mirroring is a universal feature that all apps allow except major streaming services such as Netflix and Max. The reason those apps don’t allow it is because their content is behind a paywall and piracy is a common nuisance to them. AS IF the free content I watch on thundercloud is that coveted to where it can’t be screen mirrored to my TV from my phone. Just a few weeks ago I was able to use this feature just fine and allowed for easier viewing for the multiple people watching, but now the app is aware it’s being used on a separate device and shuts down all content. Just an absolute pitiful attempt of development and a sorry excuse for a film service.
