Thanks for the detailed suggestions here! I agree that it would be great to have a dedicated app, and this is definitely something we’ve talked about as a possibility, and will continue to consider.

Note that you don’t have to export/transfer to a computer to watch the footage you film. You can simply pop your phone out and hit play right there on the phone. Still not as immediate as would be ideal, but much quicker and easier than transferring to computer first.

One approach for an app might be to make just an iOS app, and then send to computer (or other devices e.g. smart TV) using Airplay for playback. And maybe voice commands to control filming without having to touch the phone at all.

I like your “advanced feature” ideas here too, but thinking if we’re able to make an app at all, we’d probably keep it as simple as possible to start.

Just throwing it out there, if we sell as many Magnets as [Cybertrucks](https://forum.troygrady.com/t/tesla-cybertruck-do-want/19922), I think we can make an app happen 😃 But we may be able to at least prototype something sooner.
