IPEVO Visualizer

Overall, this is a very useful app! It is reliable and works well as a basic document camera app. However, I have noticed that one feature was lost around when the app was updated to version 4. Before this update, I was able to connect my iPad to my ViewBoard using AirPlay, and the camera would project to the ViewBoard at its full aspect ratio and hide the controls (which would still be visible on the iPad). Since this update, using AirPlay simply results in the iPad’s screen being mirrored at it’s native aspect ratio and the UI elements being present on the projected screen. This also occurs when using AirPlay on my MacBook and AirServer. This change does make the app much less seamless to use in the classroom as it was before.

I’d love to be able to connect my iPad to the wired IPEVO VZ-R with this software (or the iDocCam). Any chance that will be available in the future?

This app was a big disappointment. It doesn’t do the one thing I need it to when connected- use my Apple Pencil! I teach 3rd grade and have been using a usb doc camera with my laptop. Unfortunately, this set up tied me to that space or caused me to lose a ton of instructional time going back and forth between the doc camera and my students. I spent a lot of my own money on a iPad Pro, Apple Pencil, Apple TV, and the wireless doc camera in order to be mobile in my classroom. However, since I still have to go to the doc camera in order to write, nothing has changed other than I’m out approximately $3,000!
