Poor realtime geotagging support on iPhone. Also doesn't run in the background. Worked much better when I was on Android. Is this correct?

I don't know about the geotagging feature, but the last time I used it on my iPad I did need to have the app open and, if I recall correctly, in the foreground. Found that silly myself.

I had the same creasing issues with mine that arrived today. Because the IOS app only works with Iphones (and not IPADS) I am stuck waiting until they release the app for Android. All in all, looks promising, but this is off to a bad start IMHO.

The Android app is pretty bad. Although it works at times, using the Android app is frustrating to say the least. After the last update, our preset scenes would only appear 25% of the time leaving us to manual controls the other times. Android seems to be the redheaded step child as the iOS side has been flawless for us and the updates on the iOS are promptly pushed out.

I use the iPhone app and it works great. You can download the app before you buy this model and they have a demo system you can test it.

Oh dear lord people, do NOT buy this thing, it is awful. I have one, never use it. I use google maps on my iPhone and it Is so much better. I use in EU, South America, US.... Don't waste your time with any of these....

As to #1 I'd rather use an Android App. GPSLogger works great and can export its data in all sorts of formats, google earth included.Not totally sure what you mean by #2 but I always put the device in my pocket all vacation long and then used the included software to export the data. Again all sorts of formats are supported including google earth.Overall I love the little device, good battery live, excellent connection to the the GPS satellites.

Hi Charlene, I too experienced the very same issues you mention. For me, I noticed that the biggest cause for the lag/freezing was MotoBlur. Even if you dont use it, it is constantly sucking up resources. You will have to do a factory reset (make sure you back up your contacts and pics/videos prior!) and when you start your phone again, SKIP signing up to MotoBlur by pressing the menu "button" (the one left of the home button) and choose to skip-then continue as normal. 2. once you see the home screen, go to apps and open up task manager. Whatever apps you see running and dont need constantly "on" (like youtube, media share, maps etc.) simply add to auto-end by checking the box and choosing auto-end. This will help you free up some precious RAM. 3. Install a custom launcher. I use ADW launcher but you can try and install different launchers and experiment to see what works and looks best for you. I now have a very clean and attractive interface without lag and have been freeze-free since. Other tips which helped me: Avoid using a live wallaper, theyre pretty but also a drain on resources. Dont allow apps to auto-update Do not update the music player. Do not use "panoramic-camera" apps Do not keep huge logs of your sms, this stuff can get cluttered especially if you send/recieve a lot of pics. Avoid the Skype app. Enable data but not backround data (settings --&gt; battery & data manager ---&gt;data delivery) this will keep whatever apps you install from constantly running without your input. I hope this helps :)

Yes, There is a very nice EverFocus App that work well with both iPhone & Android. You can watch live from anywhere and even view time recorded items from the past. I give this app 5 out of 5 Stars.

We do not have an Iphone anywhere around; we do have an Android. That is what we used. Do not use the Iphone. You may have to download an app (I think it's called Withing); can't recall what we did but there was NO Iphone. Don't go there. We do like the scale and like that it syncs with our Android. It's fun to see that chart head downward. I just followed the directions. No IPHONE.

The GPS feature is associated with tagging the recorded event at the start only. When it is selected in the playback function it displays points on a map of all the videos clips it has in memory. I don't believe there is anyway to access this info in real time while a clip is playing or if there is any other way to use this info other than on the camera. It's a nice feature but not very useful to me. I just love the clarity and 3D.

Yes, I know the others say no, but when I've loaded the pics on my iPad, you can see the location on the map. I don't know how you do that without GPS

I've tried using my ipod touch which runs on ios 7 but it didn't seem to work. But it works for android (:

You have to use the proprietary software, so will only work if they do an Android app. The iOS software is absolute rubbish. I found it glitchy and crashed very frequently. Sound quality was worse than the built in mic too.

I just got my phone, I was curious to see the offline gps but so far I couldn't get it to work. It always shows Germany. It wouldn't locate the current position. I tried it in open Air facing the sky.Another annoyance, or may be there is a setting or something, the keyboard works like regular old cell phones. For example to type 'C' I need to tap on the key 3 times. To type number it's 4 taps. That is completely not acceptable in a smartphone.Will do more research before deciding to return it back.

Yes, and the apps are so out of date that they don't work at all on newer versions of iOS or new hardware. It will still work as a stand alone camera unit, but the quality isn't good enough to justify buying it with the neutered feature set. I am very disappointed in Looxcie. I mean at least they could have sold the line or hired someone just to update the apps for the next few years or so.

I use a windows operating system. if you don't have a laptop to run it off of, I think they have an app for apple phones but not android. I could be wrong. their program works great on my dinosaur laptop.
