      Is there text directions for this anywhere? Like, a step by step guide to follow? The directions are sort of scattered around the different YouTube videos for the different versions.

   The iOS version crashes on iPhone X, I tried it on two phones same result. The facial mocap part seems to work, haven’t tried importing it into Blender yet. The body motion capture just crashes the app.

      Apple is a pain… the iPhone X has the TrueDepth Camera so the face capture will work fine…

      but the iPhone X does not have the A12/A12X Bionic chips which are required for body capture.

      furthermore, Apple is introducing a new technology called LiDAR which will be integrated with their new Ipads and iPhone 12 and above. Supposedly LiDAR will greatly increase the resolution of the body motion capture.

         Will the app need to be updated to take advantage of the lidar or will the current version just take advantage of the app ? Thanks

      Sadly it only works with the iPhone with a TrueDepth Camera for face capture and A12/A12X Bionic chips for body capture. It will work for an iPad that has 12/A12X Bionic chips, ANE, and TrueDepth Camera, but the GUI will look weird.

         will you add support for the lidar camera as featured on the 2020 ipad pro and iphone 12 pro ? also will you add any tracking for hands / fingers ?

         thanks !

            Until I get the 2020 iPad Pro or the iPhone 12 Pro I cant develop any more for the add-on.

   Hey, I seen that you can email the file to yourself, but I am using my friend’s iPhone 11 and when I record the mocap, the file won’t let me send it to my email. I felt like if you could send it to yourself, then you would be able to send it to someone else.

   Hello the app is not available in my region.
   I love in Denmark. Do you have recommendations on how to get it?
