JOBY Motion

I feel like this app could be 5/5 if Joby would just do an real update that allows the users to lock their white balance and hard select what lens was being used. Until that happens this product is falling WAY short of what they promise to mobile creators.

1) It's only working with this awful cartoon-style app. You can't use it with default's camera time-lapse mode, or even just camera. You must use their app. 2) That means you can't use it with other devices like point and shoot 3) App seems designed for kids, not adults, or creators. It's clunky and awfully inhumane. At the 0:35 Tim stating that Joby is going to update the app regularly. This is not true. Last update is 4 month ago and it's just 'updated icon'. Overall, this could be a great product. But they have failed meeting customer's expectations.

So, you need a JOBY Spin or Swing, fair enough. But the app assumes that the phone you are using is on the device. It turns the camera on and keeps it on like it’s recording even if the phone isn’t on the device. So not usable at all if using a 2nd phone, a GoPro or small point and shoot camera on the device. They also made the app work on a ipad… this makes no sense as most iPads are over weight for the devices, so maybe they did that so you can control it from a ipad ? So when i try to use my iPad Pro to setup and control the device with my phone mounted on it, it keeps the iPad camera on the entire time !!! Makes no sense, but hey, last update was to fix the app icon …..progress i guess…ugh.
