A Windows Phone App would be awesome! I just got my new lumia 640 and your app is the only one i miss. Shouldn't be that hard if you used qt, shouldn't it?

I'm another Windows Phone user, but would prefer a Windows Universal App version, that way I could run it on my Windows Phone, Tablet AND Laptop.

I currently use the Windows version on my Tablet but it's not always finger friendly.

I have a Lenovo Miix 2 8" tablet running Windows 8.1 32-bit

I installed the Windows version 0.2.7 (including USB Driver), generally it's okay but does often lose the connection. The same LV problem happens when connected to my laptop, so more an issue with the software and not the tablet or laptop. Earlier versions were very flaky but there has been an improvement with the current (v2.7).

I do need to find a way to secure the TP-Link router to the camera because leaving it hanging causes the USB cable to come loose.

Back on topic. Last week Microsoft made a few announcements which may be of interest.
(They'll probably make more sense to you developers. :D )

1. A new Phone Emulator for developers to test their software. Limited I know, but a good start.

2. Project Astoria - Universal Windows Platform Bridge for the Android Runtime (Android code running on Windows Phone)

3. Project Islandwood - iOS apps to run on Windows

4. Some more info on the native Windows Universal Apps

5 And for those interested. Continuum for Windows Phone looks exciting too. Imagine tethering to your phone but still be able to use DSLR dashboard on a full sized monitor in your studio?
