Bird Photo Booth 4+

So many issues with the camera software and the iPhone app. I can always connect to the camera’s wifi but the app can’t always access the camera’s photos or live feed. The app just spins. Only rarely can the app connect to the photos captured on the camera for viewing or downloading. Once the connection is working, the app is very awkward to use. In order to share or save a photo, you have to copy it from camera to the app and then save it to the camera roll.
Once the SSD card is formatted, it can’t be read by any computer I’ve tried. The SSD is not readable after connecting the USB cable to a computer either.
This app and camera are not ready for consumers.

The app has potential but is missing two or three must haves for iPhone photo related apps.

Missing is the ability to save a photo to your camera roll. You can download pictures to local app storage and then you have the choice to share it. When choosing that, the icons are missing for sharing options. Not a functional limitation but looks like there is an issue with the app. You can only share one photo at a time. This maybe limitation of some targets, but should not be all of them.

When previewing individual photos, you can tap a photo to enlarge it but then you don't have ability to swipe left or right to move through the list. This is a basic photo app navigation mechanism. Without this, the app is clunky and forces a lot of back and forth making it difficult to use. Additionally, in enlarged view mode you do not have typical functions. In other words, no pinch/un-pinch to zoom or tap and hold to save or share from there.

Basic functions of video preview and snapping pictures work well with one issue. It is not clear that pictures are local to the app or the device taking them. One odd thing is that you lose some features of the Camera like motion sensing when using the app with Wifi. This likely more a function missing in the camera versus the app, but some alignment of camera features and settings in app could help with this confusion.

Why haven’t you done anything to update and fix the photo booth app? Your ratings are terrible. I tried to contact you via your website and even that has disabled contact links. Is this just a scam website? I have purchased a bird photo booth and camera and installed the app and the app does absolutely nothing. Nothing. Nothing shows on it. You can’t navigate it. Nothing.
