This item doesn't seem to work. I downloaded the app and it may be defective will exchange because I think I can be a very useful tool for all sort of documentation

For an entry level gimbal it works well with older phones. New phones that are iPhone max or to that large capacity might not level out correctly.

Horrible experience if you have an Android phone. The app is unpolished and so many features are missing form its iOS counterpart.

Gimbal is alright. The app is limiting and it will drift on you... Good for casual use, anything higher would not recommend.
