Nice app with great compatibility for what I required it for (vtubing) but inconsistent stability ruins the experience. The app freezes at random intervals for seemingly no reason. After reporting the issue to the developer, I was surprised by the (very) quick response. They even updated the app with a fix that was supposed to get rid of a potential instability bug, all in less than 24hrs. I updated the app and five minutes into my next stream, it froze again lol
It didn’t freeze the rest of the stream (about 5hrs total) so I figured it was at least a little better than before, but apparently I was just lucky (remember, the freezes are pretty random). About 10-15 streams and dozens of freezes later, I’d had enough.
I spent a not insignificant amount of money (for me) on an Ethernet adapter for my phone (despite my router being three feet away from my setup) and a phone cooler. Network and heat are common reasons given for why apps like these have issues, so I wanted to be absolutely certain that things on my side weren’t causing the issue. I did a 17 hour stream over the course of which the app froze 4-5 times. Every time it did, I swapped accessories around. First was cooler with case on, then cooler with case off, Ethernet cable and no cooler, etc. I was determined to fix the issue if I could and to know HOW I fixed it.
The only time it didn’t freeze was towards the end when I used both together, but since it was only for 2-3 hours, I’m not very convinced (I find it hard to believe that both combined were the issue).
Since others, too, are reporting issues (read a review from someone describing similar issues before I wrote this one) I think it is likely just an app issue. The other app made by the same dev also has reports of a similar issue in its reviews. Something in the core of how these apps work is screwed up. I understand being a developer can be rough, especially when you’re facing an issue that can be hard to pin down like this one, but this isn’t a free app, so it not working to a satisfying level is a huge bummer.
I finally gave up and decided to find an alternative and I just finished setting it up (turns out, I never had to buy this app at all, I already had every app I needed to get the same final result 😅) so I no longer care about what happens to this app going forward, but I hope the issues will eventually be fixed for the ones out there that don’t have the options that I have.

I use this for vtubing with Warudo and an original model, but ever since they put out the latest update that was supposed to fix instability, I’m suddenly experiencing more freezing and crashes than ever before.
Oh That One Guy • Apr 15, 2025
Mebe cuz I’m on Blend 4x, but I couldn’t get the app to connect I my computer and the computer app to connect I my blender.
flouncy mcgoo • Mar 26, 2025
The inconsistency with the software is very frustrating 😭 it works ever now and then with warudo and really well but most of the time it’s a buggy mess! Please update the software I beg yall

It’s ok
Bloom blue1 • Jan 6, 2025
Don’t waste your time or money, this app work work with any of the supported services. You can’t vent get a refund.
shrekual • Nov 22, 2024
I got a question is this a just pay for once app or is it a subscription?
LoveAndStrife • Oct 12, 2023
I’m using an iPad Pro 6th gen and iPadOS 17.0, and it’s crashing as soon as I give it camera permissions. I’ve tried reinstalling it several times but no luck. Hopefully there’s a fix soon because this looks really cool.
L0venurbl00d • Feb 20, 2023
I literally just downloaded tonight to use it and set it up and it completely doesn’t work. It shows that it connects to my gaming pc no problem but it won’t find my face. I wasted 6 bucks.

Minor bugs here and there which usually get resolved by restarting app or reinstalling.
Otherwise it is an excellent program for VTuber facial mocap. I use it with Luppet and it’s very easy to link and set up.

EDIT: reinstalling it fixed the issue for me so I’m glad about that! Thanks to the dev for getting back to me so quickly about it. If you are also having issues with the app loading on the latest IOS try deleting it and reinstalling, worked for me👍
OG post: This app is pretty cool and it used to work very well for me, but it isn’t working anymore with the latest IOS update 16.1 :(( Everytime I try to open it, the app closes immediately. Hopefully an update for the new IOS will be released in the near future since I can’t use the app at all at the moment 💔

Had to plug my pc into my router for it to not lag so much. Works next to perfect.
PhantomPboenix • Jul 21, 2022
Tried pulling up, but for some reason it isn’t working.
whatwhatzzz • May 21, 2022
It asks for IP address and it doesn’t work.
dissapointed in you guys • Feb 3, 2022
Haven’t used this in a while, but ever since I updated, the app would say it connects to my PC but it doesn’t seem to send any information.
zackymcharvest • Jan 19, 2022
It’s quite frustrating to use because of how inconsistent the behavior is. Some times it works perfect with no lag, other times it slows down considerably and not even a full iPad restart can fix it. I haven’t figured out what causes the slowdowns or how to fix them when they happen. I use this to stream and I’m trying to find another app to replace this one so I don’t have to mess with it during the stream all the time. When it does work, it does work well, however.
XtraXlence • Dec 10, 2021
I will give this app 5 stars once it has IPhone 13 support. Currently does not allow a connection through To PC VSeeFace. I have tested with and without additional support programs IFacialMocap2VMC and can confirm it does not work yet.
Yes I have input the correct IP addresses.
I get a brief message at the top of this application that indicates there is a connection to my device. That is a lie.

Great application for animator!! This application helps a lot in terms of animation, however it really depends on the user’s luck. Out of 10 times, I have been able to make the connection works once. It has useful features and easy to use though. I wish the connection improves as I have done everything troubleshooting says. The price is fair for this smart software. I wish I can get the best of it.
Kujo Kotaro • Sep 12, 2021
I’m trying to use this app and it won’t track my face at all, despite having a phone where it has face ID unlock and such. Is there no fix for this? i’ve searched for answers everywhere.
After the 1.4.8 update on December 7th, my programs no longer respond to motion data, even when the network parameters are correct and the apps are communicating properly. I cannot recommend this app, as it no longer functions.
