On December 4th, I was able to connect to every program I used on my PC, and they worked as intended.
After the 1.4.8 update on December 7th, my programs no longer respond to motion data, even when the network parameters are correct and the apps are communicating properly. I cannot recommend this app, as it no longer functions.

Don’t waste your time or money, this app work work with any of the supported services. You can’t vent get a refund.

I’m using an iPad Pro 6th gen and iPadOS 17.0, and it’s crashing as soon as I give it camera permissions. I’ve tried reinstalling it several times but no luck. Hopefully there’s a fix soon because this looks really cool.

I literally just downloaded tonight to use it and set it up and it completely doesn’t work. It shows that it connects to my gaming pc no problem but it won’t find my face. I wasted 6 bucks.

Tried pulling up, but for some reason it isn’t working.

It asks for IP address and it doesn’t work.

I’m trying to use this app and it won’t track my face at all, despite having a phone where it has face ID unlock and such. Is there no fix for this? i’ve searched for answers everywhere.

Nice app with great compatibility for what I required it for (vtubing) but inconsistent stability ruins the experience. The app freezes at random intervals for seemingly no reason. After reporting the issue to the developer, I was surprised by the (very) quick response. They even updated the app with a fix that was supposed to get rid of a potential instability bug, all in less than 24hrs. I updated the app and five minutes into my next stream, it froze again lol
It didn’t freeze the rest of the stream (about 5hrs total) so I figured it was at least a little better than before, but apparently I was just lucky (remember, the freezes are pretty random). About 10-15 streams and dozens of freezes later, I’d had enough.
I spent a not insignificant amount of money (for me) on an Ethernet adapter for my phone (despite my router being three feet away from my setup) and a phone cooler. Network and heat are common reasons given for why apps like these have issues, so I wanted to be absolutely certain that things on my side weren’t causing the issue. I did a 17 hour stream over the course of which the app froze 4-5 times. Every time it did, I swapped accessories around. First was cooler with case on, then cooler with case off, Ethernet cable and no cooler, etc. I was determined to fix the issue if I could and to know HOW I fixed it.
The only time it didn’t freeze was towards the end when I used both together, but since it was only for 2-3 hours, I’m not very convinced (I find it hard to believe that both combined were the issue).
Since others, too, are reporting issues (read a review from someone describing similar issues before I wrote this one) I think it is likely just an app issue. The other app made by the same dev also has reports of a similar issue in its reviews. Something in the core of how these apps work is screwed up. I understand being a developer can be rough, especially when you’re facing an issue that can be hard to pin down like this one, but this isn’t a free app, so it not working to a satisfying level is a huge bummer.
I finally gave up and decided to find an alternative and I just finished setting it up (turns out, I never had to buy this app at all, I already had every app I needed to get the same final result 😅) so I no longer care about what happens to this app going forward, but I hope the issues will eventually be fixed for the ones out there that don’t have the options that I have.

Mebe cuz I’m on Blend 4x, but I couldn’t get the app to connect I my computer and the computer app to connect I my blender.

The inconsistency with the software is very frustrating 😭 it works ever now and then with warudo and really well but most of the time it’s a buggy mess! Please update the software I beg yall

I got a question is this a just pay for once app or is it a subscription?

It’s quite frustrating to use because of how inconsistent the behavior is. Some times it works perfect with no lag, other times it slows down considerably and not even a full iPad restart can fix it. I haven’t figured out what causes the slowdowns or how to fix them when they happen. I use this to stream and I’m trying to find another app to replace this one so I don’t have to mess with it during the stream all the time. When it does work, it does work well, however.

As much as I want to like this software, I cannot get beyond using the ‘face’ that comes with the included Blend file. The instructions included in the description are very basic and really do not help someone new to this. The videos in this are in Japanese, so if you are a non-native speaker they aren’t much help (translation in the closed captioning is very poor.) After writing the developer a few times, he stated that he is ‘busy’ and would not be answering anymore of my emails (not much help for noobs such as myself.) There doesn’t seem to be a community out there that utilizes this software where one can go for answers. Other software in this genre may be more expensive, but if you are new to these types of software and looking for something that has a reasonable amount of support and documentation, this is probably not the one you want.
