The Pivo Pod SIlver was really easy to set up - just download the app and connect to your phone via bluetooth and you're ready to go. It has four tracking speeds: Slow, Normal, Fast and Frenzy. After playing around a bit I chose Fast and filmed a quick dance video, exported to my iPhone photo gallery, and uploaded to my Instagram stories easily. I got a ton of comments from people about how cool the camerawork was in my video.
You can also use Pivo Silver to track you during a video call. For that there's a separate app to download called Pivo Meet. Pivo Meet gives you a link to send to people to join the call. They do not have to have the Pivo Meet app. Once they join it works just like a regular Facetime or other video call, except you can now move around the room freely and Pivo will follow you as you talk. It worked great with a single caller, but crashed when I tried with multiple callers. In any case that's not the primary reason I got the Pivo so I'm not too worried about it.
In all I'm super happy with the Pivo Pod Silver. So far it does exactly what I got it for, which is tracking me when I shoot a dance video and keeping me in frame. It really is like having a virtual cameraman. I haven't tried it for my art time lapse videos where I frequently have to deal with moving across the page with my paint brush, so I'm hoping it will be able to help me with that. There are a ton of other fun features that I haven't tried yet, such as Multi-stream, Magic Edge and Many Me. I may try those further on down the line. It's a great little product that I think I'll be using a lot.
