    • PIVO POD

Review Image by Rajesh Rajesh
The media could not be loaded. Pivo Pod Review – This Smartphone Mount Tracks You Automatically Nad 0 8 min read WhatsAppFacebookPinterestTwitterLinkedinReddit Have you ever wanted to have a personal photographer who can capture stunning photos and videos? Have you ever wanted to capture mind-blowing time-lapse videos that you see on Instagram? How about a fully automatic videographer for your vlog or workout video? We have a new gadget here that can do a lot more than these. Meet, Pivo Pod, a motorized smartphone mount. In this article, I am reviewing Pivo Pod Silver and we are gonna see everything in detail, including its pros and cons. What exactly is Pivo Pod? Pivo pod is a smartphone accessory that turns your smartphone into a cameraman. By using a motorized head that can be either controlled by a remote or by using their phone app via Bluetooth. Pivo pod can do a lot of things including automated timelapse, panorama, object tracking, etc. We will see more in the coming section. What’s in the Box? You will find a user manual, charging cable, remoter controller and the Pivo Pod itself inside the box. The box cannot be used as a case or something, so I discarded it. Pivo Pod Features Let us now have a deeper look into some of the most useful features of Pivo Smooth Motion When I first saw this gadget, I was not so sure about the smoothness it offered. I have seen so many tripods that stutter as you turn them. If that is the case with Pivo, I would have been pissed off. But luckily, the motorized action is so smooth that you won’t notice any stutter in the video. However, if you are using it for face or object tracking, you may see a bit of quick movement. This makes sense because the camera has to be with the object all the time. So, if you make any sudden movement, the camera needs to adjust the frame and hence makes a sudden movement as well. 360° Rotation This is another useful feature of Pivo Pod. It offers a seamless 360-degree horizontal rotation. This means you can turn your smartphone either clockwise or anti-clockwise to an entire rotation. In fact, you can set it to rotate uninterruptedly for several times. This feature lets you shoot 360-degree photos (those globe kind of pictures), broader timelapse and more. A good example is, Assume you are in your kitchen and on a video call with your friend via Pivo. When you come to your hall which is exactly opposite of your kitchen, Pivo pod automatically tracks you and turns around without any manual control. Now if you move back to your kitchen from a different side, Pivo still tracks you since it has 360-degree turn capability. Fully Automatic With the help of their app, you can set the motor and duration settings and the pod will take care of the rest. Once you set everything, you can leave the pod with your phone until the video/photo capture is finished. There is no need for manual button presses or position changes. This is very helpful when you are shooting a long timelapse video. In that case, you can set it to some time duration and sleep! Also, you can use your phone to control the pod and a totally different phone to shoot videos (some app features such as object tracking won’t work though). Bluetooth Connection Your smartphone and Pivo can be connected over Bluetooth. The setup is simple. You turn on Pivo pod by pressing the power button for 3-5 seconds. Open Pivo app, you will have a button to connect, click it and you are done. After you are connected, you will be directly taken to the camera where you can choose different working modes, motor speed, object detection etc. Smartphone App Pivo pod app is the secret sauce to this gadget. Without this app, Pivo pod is as good as a remote-controlled turntable. Let us now have a look at some of the settings and options in the app. When you are in the app, swiping right all the way from the left end of the screen will open up the mode menu. Here you can choose different modes like panorama, multi-stream, time-lapse, studio 360, time planet, and a couple more. Choosing the options will open up additional settings page catered for that mode. You can then specify details like rotation speed, angle, direction, etc. Auto-Tracking On the camera screen, you can press anywhere to choose it as a highlighted object. So, Pivo will stick to that object and tracks it. Even if you move the object to a different place, Pivo pod still tracks it. From my experience, I haven’t had any issues with auto-tracking at all. You can even track people’s face or body. This feature is particularly useful when you are away from the phone, doing some stuff. For example, when you are recording your workout session, you constantly move from here and there. With Pivo, you don’t have to worry about missing frames because the camera automatically tracks you wherever you move and captures the video. Video Call/Live Stream Another useful feature in the app is live streaming or live video call. If you move around while you are on a video call, Pivo automatically tracks you and keeps you inside the frame. But there is a catch. This won’t work with Whatsapp or skype calls. You will have to use their own video call app called Pivo meet. This is a huge deal-breaker for many people. Also, in order to use their multi-stream mode, you need an account on restream.io Smart Capture Another useful feature I came across is the smart capture mode. In this mode, you have 3 options to capture photos or videos without even touching the phone. 1. You can clap to capture 2. You can use your voice to capture (saying words like cheese, take, snap or shoot to trigger it) 3. You can spread your arms horizontally to capture All of these modes are very helpful when you are taking group photos or videos. You can set Pivo at a distance and use one of the above ways to capture images. Also, there are a lot of other useful features like predictive follow, auto-zoom, burst mode, etc. I will constantly keep updating this article as I explore more. Tripod Friendly Pivo pod features a 1/4 inch thread on its bottom surface. So, you can hook it on to a tripod or a smartphone gimbal. Having it on a tripod is very helpful when you don’t have a taller surface like a wall or something. Please note, tripod friendly does not mean camera friendly. You cannot use a digital or DSLR camera on pivo pod. Bubble Level The bubble level on the top surface helps you get perfectly aligned shots with the pod. It detects imbalance in all the directions and comes handy when you are shooting outdoors, like on a rock or something. Remote Control Pivo pod comes with a remote controller with which you can control the motor. It has got several buttons including motor direction & speed control, image capture, pause motor etc but there is no power button which is an irony. I hope the batteries don’t drain quickly. Talking about the battery, there are two CR32 batteries that are removable but not rechargeable. The remote is super lightweight and you can easily carry it in your pocket without any inconvenience. Battery Life and Charging Honestly, I have no idea about the battery life because I haven’t even charged it once after getting. If I could remember, I have used it for hours and it still has about 20% of battery remaining. One way to check the battery status is on their smartphone app. Even though there is no way to get the battery %, you can at least check the battery level. Pivo pod can be charged via a micro USB cable. You don’t need any special adapters or anything like that, just use your smartphone’s charger. If your phone doesn’t use micro USB, you probably need a gadget like inCharge 6. A Bit About Pod Silver Pod silver is a newer version with a faster motor. In terms of price, the pod silver is $20 more than the regular pod. These are the differences. • Instead of 10 secs/rotation, you get 4 secs/rotation. This is super helpful while shooting timelapse videos. • Instead of 3 rotation speeds, you have 4 rotation speed. I don’t know if this helps you a lot but you have it. Is it worth it? Well, it depends. If you are planning to use it for a lot of time-lapse videos, pod silver is definitely better. If not, go with the regular pod. There are different accessories for Pivo which you can check it out on their website Key Takeaways Now that you have know a bit about Pivo Pod, here are a few important takeaways, • Pivo pod is a smartphone accessory that can help take better and hands-free photos and videos • It is very easy to use and highly portable • The build quality is very good • The motor is super smooth and stable • Pivo works with any smartphone, be it an iPhone, Samsung, Oneplus, or whatnot. It also works with small tablets • Pivo does not work with camcorders or DSLR cameras due to the size limitation • The bubble level is very handy when you are on uneven surfaces • Both the smartphone app and the remote controller use Bluetooth and are easy to setup • There are a lot of smart functionalities including auto-tracking, smart capture, etc ... show more

    • Love Everything about the Pivo! I Purchased 2 times with my own Coins!
Size: Pod + Remote Control
I purchased with my own coins a Pivo on March 13, 2022. Love every moment that I have had it. It did not disappoint. I had to purchase it again because I had it on Pivo Tripod and the dog knocked it over and broke it. Ouch! But I am happily buying another one and it only takes a day to get it delivered. This Pivo comes with Remote Control Auto Tracking Smartphone Pod-Handsfree Face Body Motion Tracking Camera Phone Mount. I also purchased the Smart Mount which I love. However, I also purchased the Tripod, and Case which I also love… I can also attach my camera to the tripod. Let me just say when my dog broke it he broke my heart. It is very easy to download the app and very easy to use. The pics go right to my Macbook easily. It just has so much included. It is compatible with Zoom, Teams, Instagram, and YouTube. It has creative modes Gif’s, Timelapse, Tiny Planet, Video Calls, and Panorama. It follows me everywhere. No Jerky movement, and quiet movement. I love it. If you purchase, it will not disappoint. Make sure that you keep away from animals. Because they can knock it over on Tripod. Believe me, the Pivo Tripod is well made and it will not disappoint. The Pivo comes with a charging cable. It stays charged for a while and does not take long to charge. This is like having your own camera person. You do not have to ask anyone to help you take videos or take pics of yourself. It is an all-in-one video production team. So Ready Set and Track and Let's Go. ... show more

    • Video Game Changer!
Size: Pod + Remote Control
This has been a great addition to our video recording processes. SO easy to use and the tracking is incredibly accurate, it won't follow you running, but for simple "Walk and talk" videos it's great.

    • Have to purchase more apps in order to use, should come with them
Size: Pod + Remote Control
Ive had this a week, Ill have to update when I have had more usage – but right off the top here is what upsets me the most. it doesn't really come with any of the apps to access all the possible features. Ya it gives you the basic tracking app - but you have to pay more for the features. If you want to take 360 pictures you have to use their app and it costs $150 extra :O testing out the Pivo Tour app it does what I am looking for but feel a little deceived that I have to buy another app that is $150 to use this feature of the pod. ... show more
