Feb 20, 2019 Needs some updates and more items. This has not had a single new item added to it since its launch. It's still my go to app, but still, some new items would be extremely useful and welcome -
Incredibly useful
Nov 25, 2016 I hope the developer did not abandon this app. It's an incredibly portable and powerful way for a filmmaker or director of photography to work out scene ideas. It helps amateur filmmakers take their craft to the next level. Sometimes spontaneity is the right way to go, sometimes careful planning, especially of something more complex than "selfie" videos, is the right way to go. Shot Designer is an invaluable tool for the latter. Thumbs up all the way. (BTW, the tutorial videos are all there, lower down on the page.)more -
Oct 7, 2020 It's alright but the layout on the screen is kind of clustered. Needs more space for android at least! -
Tip Top for preps
Jul 17, 2020 I have been using this email since many years now, after it has been highly been recommended by our camera teacher who works with haneke. After getting a new computer I had to manage my account - the customer service was excellent. I'll be using Shotdesigner many more years.more -

Not supported any more?
Aug 7, 2016 This is a wonderful app if you are using iPhones and cameras from 5 years ago. As far as I can tell now the app isn't really getting support outside of software updates and glitches. The field of views on the camera are basic and don't include a way to switch between sensor sizes on any modern camera, the aspect ratios are limited, and the last version of the phone in their list to match field of view is the iPhone 5S. Other than that it's a great diagraming app.more -
Nov 2, 2020 The UI is so broken I couldn't tap a single button, maybe the app is good if only I could pass the title screen -
Oct 15, 2018 Have used this program before on Mac and loved it. Trying it on a chromebook and can't click anything.... quite dissapointed. -
No longer opens?
May 7, 2017 Nothing like paying for a pro version a few months back and now being unable to get the app to work. App technically opens up to land you on a blank / white page. Great idea, but a solid reminder of what happens when a Dev no longer supports their product or requires online access in order to work.more -
Dec 16, 2020 The app crash when I try to sync!

It does work!
Aug 30, 2017 I got the "white screen of death" too. But their helpful support person provided a solution: Uninstall the app. Quit all other apps. Reboot the phone - three times (yes, insane) Download the app again. Open it again. This solved it for me and it now works great. Support indicated apple provides no way for vendors to respond to complaints, but hopefully this will let you know it is not a "dead app".more -
Nov 3, 2020 Really, it helped me a lot, in visualizing things... -
Simply Awesome!
Apr 10, 2016 An indispensable tool that increases efficiency on set and makes sharing the details of any shoot easy. Wonderfully simple to use yet powerful for Professionals.

Apr 28, 2019 As an "Old School" director, this seems to have just what I need to display to Cast and Crew. -
App does more than anything else on the market
Feb 9, 2013 Nothing's perfect. But this app is invaluable as a teaching tool in my lighting classes. I can project the iPad screen and display, change and discuss lighting situations with students in class, before we move to setting up equipment. This saves valuable time and gets the students to think BEFORE they touch the lighting instruments. The animation tools are good, but could be less clunky. Also, can you add Google Drive as a option besides DropBox?more -
Aug 7, 2019 Loved the app (yet to upgrade to #pro), does the upgrade come with a validity/is it for lifetime?

Apr 8, 2021 It needs UPDATE! I have the Windows version and it works, but I can't sync my data on this android version! This suck, specially when you buy the pro version but it still won't work. I love this app but, come on Hollywood Camera Work!more

Jan 28, 2020 sad that the dev gave up on this.. hope he's ok. this should be totally free if its never going to be updated. -
Very Disappointing
Nov 7, 2014 I’ve given this a good run and am actually quite disappointed (especially now that I spent $20). Here are few of the biggest issues. 1: It would be nice to be able to duplicate an entire scene. If multiple scenes take place in the same location, then every time you want to make a separate scene you also have to build the “set” from scratch. I would like to be able to copy the entire set and drop/paste it into a new scene. 2: The idea of “pages” seems great on the surface but when you only have 5 pages available to you, it becomes a dud very quickly. I can keep adding to this list. You are so limited by functionality.more

App does not work, terrible customer service-don’t buy
Apr 22, 2020 I an unable to save my design to my phone. I was also unable to create an account through the app to get the desktop version. I am a film student and 4 other students in my cinematography class had the same issues.
