Very nice app! Tried few others with my cheap generic Chinese endoscope none of wich was this good, either were full of crapy ads to the point it was unusable, either wasn't working at all or freezes the phone after camera removal so it needed restart after every time I used the camera. This app is great pretty simple and very useful. Doesn't contain none of above. Love it!

Was working then suddenly quit. Says no usb web camera found. Even when the led lights on the camera would come on. But even that is hit or miss. Installed on a different device with same results. Really needed to use this. Updated the app with no improvement.
