The Swivl solution consists of three elements:

• Swivl robot&marker = hardware 
• Swivl app = software for iOS and Android mobile devices

2. Install the Swivl app on the mobile device which you are going to use with Swivl robot to record videos. Compatible with iOS devices or Android devices. 
3. Connect your Swivl robot to your mobile device, launch Swivl app and start recording videos. See our Swivl Set Up Guide

• Discover the features of your marker
• Learn to capture video with the Swivl app
