Limitations:

App:

By the end of 2020 we aim at making iOS and Android Swivl app fully equivalent in terms of UI and features, however as of today Android Swivl app has a few limitations if compared to iOS app: 

- There is no option to save your video to the app gallery (video will still be accessible in file explorer).

- Tilt Correction setting is not available for Android so far.

- Android app has no in-app option to Set Secondary Marker as Primary.

- Android app has no Pause recording feature.

- Sharing options directly from the mobile Android Swivl app are not currently available. 

Devices:

1. Samsung:

We only recommend using Samsung Tab S5e or Samsung Tab S6.

With any other Type-C Samsung and Swivl you can do:

- recording with the Swivl app (no live streaming )

- integrated Audio live streaming setup

2. Lenovo M10 is compatible with CX for live stream, but cannot be used with mobile charging. You will not be able to charge the Lenovo M10 while connected to Swivl base.
