This app has serious potential but it doesn’t seem to work quite yet with the Sony A7Riii. I have updated the firmware on my camera to Sony’s latest firmware and the app is still buggy. When using the shutter robot the shutter fires at random times and not at the times set in the app. Often times it will randomly shoot a burst of multiple frames. When the shutter firing does seem to be in sync, the camera locks up and just keeps on shooting regardless of the time or number frames set for the threshold. The camera has to be powered off and then back on in order to get it to respond otherwise it just keeps on shooting indefinitely with no other way to get it to respond.

I had serious hopes for this app but it was a big disappointment in the end. Hopefully it gets fixed soon or I can get my $30 back.

I’ve been using this app for years and overall it has worked well and done what I’ve needed. The new version claims better compatibility, faster and better previews for Nikon Z, but for me it’s the opposite. Previews are so slow and take so long it is almost unusable. I’ve tried with both my iPhone 12 and iPad Air and they function the same. Please fix this so I can continue to use this app.

Edit: the developer has responded and suggested that the reason it is slower is due to better quality previews and that I should try disabling Bluetooth. I’ve found no discernible difference in quality in the previews vs what I’ve seen in the past, and disabling Bluetooth did not solve the issue.

I love the concept of this app, but it has several main flaws.

1. It freezes a lot. When connecting to my Fujifilm X-E2. It sometimes works in the beginning, after a while, it freezes, and I have to shut down the app and my camera and reconnect.

2. Shutter and aperture adjustment in the app has a major problem, almost every time I adjust shutter and aperture in Cascable, it first works ok, EV on live view changes, then it just stop working, in my case no matter how I adjust shutter value in Cascable, it jumps back to 25sec, similar situation when I adjust aperture value, and EV won’t change anymore. I’ve tried to set aperture value to ‘auto’, shutter value to ‘auto’ or ‘bulb’ on my Fujifilm X-E2, but still all the same.

3. Geotagging in China might have a problem. Chinese government asks map providers to “shift” locations on every map in China for a certain distance (because of national security reason blah blah blah), after geotagging with Cascable, locations where I actually take pictures is a distance away from those on the map in Cascable. I believe the location info is correctly geotagged onto the photos, it’s just shown incorrectly on the map in Cascable due to that Chinese government problem. There’s an app ‘Fog of World’ and it had the same problem before, then the developer solved it, maybe Cascable developer can write FoG a letter.
