Urgent: Matterport camera connection to app10358

Ghagendorf private msg quote post Address this user
Hello, I was scanning today and then lost connectivity between the camera and the app. The camera shows connected, the iPad shows connected, but the app does not show connected. I rebooted the camera and the iPad and the app each about three times. I even tried to see if it would show connected on my iPhone app but it does not. Any suggestions before I send it out for repair? I left a message at Matterport support.

Do you have the latest firmware update?

Do you have the latest iOS update?

I thought so but when I got home I saw that there is an update. However, I can’t get it processed because the camera won’t connect to the app.

Another option might be buying an Insta360 One X at Best Buy if you have a shoot before you can get the loaner or while you are having your Matterport camera serviced.

Hmmm, that might work. I am supposed to scan for a new relator client in the morning. Does the Insta360 have as good of quality as a Matterport Pro 2 camera?

I guess I could try the Insta360 and if the relator isn't happy with it I can offer to re-scan with the Pro 2 camera.

Search the tag: Insta360 One X for examples.

Ricoh Theta Z1 quality will be better than Insta360 One X; if you can find one locally.

You and I can tell the difference between Pro2 versus Insta360 One X: agent may not notice a difference.

Matterport can not do floor plans from Insta360 One X or Ricoh Theta Z1.

Another option would be to engage a competitor and/or rent a camera from a competitor.

Does Amazon offer 1-hour delivery in your area?

I thought about asking a competitor to rent me their camera but I don't personally know any in the Houston area. I guess I could call around using your network info on your website.

This happened to one of my cameras last weekend. I tried everything, but the only solution is exchanging it via matterport. It's part of an issue with one of the beta firmware updates.

Sorry!
