App does not offer a zoom option for my camera.
I am using Monterey OS and this version 3.0 now does not work at HD. The pan and tilt no longer works and the focusing is also buggy.
Gosh, how did you get it to work at all? Mine is just grayed out.
Same. So far a waste of $8. All settings greyed out for internal macbook camera.
Hi, I'm using 3.0 (0301) and recently upgraded to 12.0.1 (Monterey). The app still works, but profile updates are no longer saved. I can make changes and they take effect, but next time I start the app the settings are back to the old saved ones.
