Works ok except for this crucial item...

I downloaded the free version of this app a long time ago and only used it a few times but it seemed decent. Then last week I needed to do some product shots so I set everything up and connected Camrote via bluetooth, took a bunch of pictures and all seemed fine until I noticed the images were all JPEG instead of RAW which is what the camera is always set on. Thinking that maybe RAW was only available with the pro version, I paid the $10 and took a bunch more shots. Both camera and app were definitely set to "RAW" but again, all the photos are JPEGs. I submitted a complaint via the support screen and it's been probably a week and I have not heard anything back. This app is useless to me if I can't take photos in RAW. Very annoying!

Awesome

This Works much better than the Sony edge garbage app. Sony should hire these developers to improve theirs.

Disconnects too frequently

Have this app on my a6400. Yes it works, but for only a minute or whenever you press the shutter and then it has a chance disconnecting itself. Also sometimes it says connected but the app is basically jammed and you cannot press any button. THIS IS DEADLY TO PHOTOGRAPHY THAT NEEDS TIMING. The instability of the app brings too many uncertainty for anyone who needs to capture an instance; if you are a sports or wildlife photographer, avoid this app.

Interface and quality issues

Why do the menus get so buggy for connections? and how come the quality is WAY off when transferred?

Great start

I do like this app for my, workhorse, Sony a6300. I’m an architecture photographer and sometimes I need bracket shooting. I can’t seem to adjust the camera settings and get the app to show the shooting adjustment. Please add this feature. It would make this app great.

Support small business

It’s rare that I pay for in app purchases these days. I’m impressed with this app because all the Fuji and Leicas can transfer effortlessly. But I don’t have the appetite to change my gear. Thank you Simon! Keep it up!

I have had someone highlight to me that it is misleading to call what is effectively a Intervalometer function a Timelapse function. I want to do everything I can to rectify this, so I am updating the app to refer to the functionality as "Intervalometer" (capturing the images for a Timelapse) instead of "Timelapse" (the actual creation of an output video).

More exciting things coming to Camrote soon!
