Artemis Pro

When ArtemisPro first came out, I upgraded. I knew that it would have better features since the developers listen to their clientele. I was right. I use this app on every TV commercial I produce. I don’t micromanage the Directors vision or the DP’s framing but try and previz the oncoming circus that is known as production. If I know the DP who will be shooting the spot, I try to reach out to confirm the camera that might be used. I’ll usually just go with a generic set of primes to cover off the basic FOV. As they say, it’s all in the prep. I’ve had a few questions since this upgrade and depending upon the complexity of the ask, someone gets back to me in 24hrs. I recently had some issues with an uploading process that took some back and forth but fortunately the person I dealt with really wanted to understand the issue. He hung in there and eventually figured it out. Also, the fact that this marries up with HeliosPro, their sun/moon prediction app makes it a winning combo. Go to the hip, it’s worth every penny.

My Artemis pro starts crushing on opening on my iPhone 8 and iPad Air 2. It used to work fine on both device but a while ago it stopped working on my iPad first, show the logo page and quits itself. I tried reboot, reinstall, and even after updating the iOS it still won’t work. And now it starts doing the same thing on my iPhone 8. I also tried rebooting and reinstalling on my iPhone but no luck. Both device has the latest iOS and latest version of Artemis pro. Anyone experience the same issue?

I just got an email from the developer, and I am extremely impressed that he reached out and is working with me to fix these problems. If every developer was this responsive the world would be a beautiful place. :-) —————————- I just got Artemis Pro and HeliosPro. A number of functions such as trying to change camera info, or zooming in on light pollution maps l cause both apps to crash on iPhone XS Max and iPad Pro, running most current iOS 12. Unacceptable, and very disappointing. These are apps meant to be used by professionals!

I’ve tried every recommended fix to the crashing issue, the most I can get it opening the app and using it for a while, but eventually it will start crashing again and I have reset location privacy, which is super inconvenient to then have to go through all my other apps and ‘okay’ the pop ups. It also felt very deceiving to remove a lot of features from Artemis legacy and so that you’re forced to buy the pro version if you want things like 2.35 frame lines for cameras that don’t shoot it internally. Definitely would like to see the crashing fixed so I could actually use it, and then maybe it would be worth a couple more stars, and the price tag.

If the new version crashes when you install, try this: Open the Settings App > General > Reset then tap Reset Location and Privacy Open Artemis Pro and tap Allow or Yes for any prompts.
