4/5Almost perfect…. With Last update dropped 1 Star
Hey guys, no better option when it comes to iPhone and NDI specifically to ECAMM. It has been a life saver and a game changer for me, maintaining a temporary setup using three iPhones (13, 13 Pro Max , XR) all working great. BUUUUUUTTTT, once update to the most recent release, now the app crashes at least 3 times in a span of 3 hours. The previous version never crashed on me. Could this be a software update matter? Something that can be fixed with a new update, or is it something wrong on my end? Any help would be so appreciated. Thanks

3/5New Update not sending video feed
Over the past 4–6 years, my church has been using the NDI Camera app as a mobile camera to capture different shots during our services. Unfortunately, after the most recent update, the app has stopped working properly; the phone is no longer detectable in vMix or OBS. I’ve tested this on five different iphones, and none of them are working. To make sure it wasn’t a network issue, I also tested NDI Camera Capture on my Galaxy S25, and it worked without any problems. This confirms the issue is directly related to the latest update. This update has made it very difficult for us to run our livestreams, so I kindly ask that this issue be corrected as soon as possible. Thank you for your support!

2/5New update missed the mark
This app used to be fantastic, but the new UI removed some of this app’s best features- namely, the ability to quickly toggle between the front and back camera with one button click, and the ability to pause the stream. In version 2, you could tap the NDI logo at the bottom of the screen. In the current version 3, tapping the lower NDI logo completely cancels the feed and requires I both restart it on the app AND in the software running on the Mac. This was not the case before. Please revert back to the simpler UI and feature set of Version 2. Many of these could be controlled in the settings menu so users can control what experience they need.

4/5Was working great, started to get choppy
I was using this to connect my iPhone 11 to OBS on my Mac to record 1080p. I’m also planning to use this to stream. The video recording that came out was nice and smooth for the most part. However, today the video seems to be choppy. I tried using another app called EpocCam to connect to OBS also through NDI and the connection was much more smooth - and there was a lot less latency from what I could monitor on my phone to what OBS was monitoring - it was almost instant. The issue with EpocCam is it was not recording audio. Although I am recording audio separately from video, I use the iPhone audio in order to sync up the video after the recording. I am wondering if this choppiness was introduced because of the most recent update... my internet speeds are well above 200Mbps albeit on WiFi. I can’t really explain why just two days ago the app was working much better than now. Can anyone from NewTek help out? Otherwise the app and functionality are great. I do wish they would add ultra wide support for the iPhone 11 though.

5/5Great when you optimize connection
I’ve been using with an old iPhone 6 and Ecamm running on a good MacBook Pro (2012). Best results when connecting the iPhone to MacBook with Ethernet cable. Also had good results when connecting a 5g TP-Link WiFi to MacBook with Ethernet cable and having the iPhone as the only device on the WiFi. I think it would be better with a modern phone but the connection is key. I like to think of the Ethernet cable as a very inexpensive HDMI on a free video camera. Try this with Ecamm. I have used this for streaming church services for 4 weeks. Just got the Ethernet connection working. Recorded excellent video to Ecamm using an Ethernet connection for over an hour.
