Needed a camera app that can take a Bluetooth mic input, this one works when using the rear camera, but inexplicably switches to the internal mic when using the front facing camera, and there doesn't seem to be a way to use the Bluetooth mic even though it's selected in the menu, maybe it's a bug I don't know, but I want to use an external mic so I can use my phone's front facing camera from a distance. If the developer fixes this then I will give it 5 stars.

Better than the paid for version (which requires I use camera compatibility mode and therefore loses HDR etc). Paid version does allow better Bluetooth microphone capture (higher bitrate audio).. Free is the way.. App says last updated YEARS ago, vs the Pro (paid for) version, last updated weeks ago.... I get better captures from FV Lite (free), due to better support of my camera sensors' hardware.. Haven't asked for a refund on the (useless) Paid for version.. hoping developer support inbound
