1. 5/5The best monitoring app

   The app has some difficulty differentiating between spaghetti and necessary wires. Even sleeved, at some point your wires must be visible to connect, and the detective notices these wires (especially if your camera is in the front of the bed looking towards the back.) This is my only complaint and I imagine over time the app will be able to better distinguish between the two. Honestly this app works better and more consistently for monitoring prints than octopod anywhere, polymer, or kraken. Visuals are cleaner than those apps, plus you don’t need to pay anything. As long as you submit your videos that were being watched you continuously get more free hours. Now that my free trial month is over I am going to get the pro subscription because it is absolutely worth it.

2. 1/5It’s so dumb and useless

   Gives you zero tools in slicer, can’t even change the filament to TPU so I have to manually go in and change everything, can’t rotate my project to lay it flat so I don’t need supports cause again there’s no tools. Tried using a different slicer that does actually work, but it recognizes the printer, but won’t let me send to the printer. If I send the file through a usb stick from another slicer it just goes crazy when it’s printing. Seen everything online saying clipper is so much better than Marlin and I’m bout to throw all this away and go back. Nothing simple about it, hard to find videos for help, took me 3 nights to get the btt pi2 and klipper to work right. Did all of this to wifi print…. Could have just installed a wifi board to my screen and not got clipper and still been printing. Only printed 1 thing right since (only cause I didn’t have to change its position) and can’t figure out what slicer to use so I can properly orient the objects so I can print them correctly.

3. 5/5Customer Service is second to none

   I’ve had some webcam issues that may or may not be Obico’s fault, but I suggested via email that it may be due to their app, and their team was incredibly responsive, and they have been more helpful than I could have ever imagined a company being. The app just works amazingly well too, and even with this webcam issue that might be something else entirely, this is by far the best OctoPrint app out there. I’ve tried other top apps, and they all require you to install multiple apps and plugins and then connect them all and pay subscription fees to each app if you want all the benefits. This app is the only one stop shop that I’ve come across, and it’s been super easy to use. Highly recommend.

4. 3/5Good app, despite hardware issues

   2025 Update: many of these bugs persist years later, but Octopod keeps getting updates like Live Activities where I can see the % at the top of the screen without opening the app or waiting for the next notification. I’ll email the developer again about all the bugs and mention this too. He has always been super responsive, but I’m docking 2 stars for now. Good app, but lacking features and regular updates. — 2022: My Pi 4 is tucked away in a closet with the 3D printer. Although it never sputters on LAN while at home, it seems to be a different story externally and buffers quite a bit when accessing remotely outside of my house. Any remote access requires good connection, which I think I'm barely out of the range of in my "closet scenario." I still get email/text alerts immediately, but streaming for more than a few seconds seems to be barely out of reach. It's so close to 5 stars, but I think it could really benefit from some more development with better dynamic resolution / bps to avoid as much buffering. Could we even select what resolution we want easily instead of ONLY offering the dynamic? One star docked. I was also a beta tester since I've used Spaghetti Detective long before it was Obico. I think it's gotten better and they had Baby Step Z as a feature for awhile, but it disappeared! It worked perfectly for me, but I imagine it was a bit experimental and didn't work for everyone. I'm sad it's gone, but I can understand. No stars docked. iPad version needs a lot of work. It is basically just a camera in landscape mode and you can't click anything. I have a landscape keyboard case, so this is pretty frustrating. One star docked.

5. 5/5TSD great and the App is icing on the cake

   TSD works very well automatically identifying print issues and the app is a nice bonus. Recently TSD spotted a failure “smells fishy” of one component within a multi-component print. I was printing black PETG on a black bed and when I first looked in I didn’t see any issue. However while double checking I saw that one component had broken loose and spaghettie was forming. I got lucky and was able to stick that one component back in place so it didn’t trash all the others. Lost that one but TSD helped me save the others. App is a nice bonus to remotely visually monitor. I am a TSD Pro (paid subscription) user but 3D printing is just a hobby. My TSD client runs on a raspberry pi4 using the Pi-HD camera and 16mm lens.
