Great question. As you correctly noticed, we use about 3-30% CPU and 30% only when gesture occurs, so on average it uses about 5% CPU - less than your average browser. Hence, our implications should not be any diff. Thanks for point it ou

You're right - our website not the greatest thing in the world. We are working it too... please be patient as we're still a small team. Yes, it works on Mac and Windows version will come soon!

Great questions. It works the best from 1-6 feet, so no you don't have to be right in-front of your comp. The latest version has improved false positive rate where we got one every few hours. Kinect is overkill for accuracy at this point,

You're right about that first version was a bit sensitive. Some backend goodies are part of this version so false positive rates should've gone down. Try the new version and see if you feel any improvements. Also, yes, camera is on all th

Great point. Apologies for missing that. Good news is that Windows version is in the works too!

He may have a valid point to certain extent regarding a controlling nature of those two firms, but if I look at last 10 years, I see more innovation out of Apple than Google, and even in it's controlled way Apple through iOS has driven more

Garry Tan is a partner and a rockstar. He's given a plenty of amazing pointers and w/o him (and other partners) we would've gotten plenty of other things wrong. That said, Garry can guide us. His job isn't do design for us... that onus is

Hi Guys, we just do play/pause right now and only on iTunes and Spotify. It only works on Mac for now too. Yes, we will be adding support for more apps/gestures/windows in near future. We will also communicate things more clearly when we

We do not feel this is disrespectful at all. In fact, we love it. Even Kyro is our user, and we love his passion for Flutter. A/B testing is something that we will add in near future, but when product is still in alpha, we have to continu

Tim - like the idea of waving hi to future. :)

Kyro - you rock. Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to give Flutter a facelift. We appreciate it..

by mehuln 15y ago
Yes, we at Flutter feel that we would try the app if it had this design too. :) We appreciate all the hard work that Kyro put in behind this!

Yes, again, it is for Mac, and we are sorry it's not more obvious. We will add system requirements page as soon as possible.

That's a great idea. We refer to those as passive gestures, and we will enable those in future too. Right now, starting simple and solving small problems first.

Great point. CPU usage was a concern for us, that is why we spent months optimizing it. It right now uses on average ~5% of your CPU. (20-30% when you do a gesture, 2-3% otherwise). Please try the app if you have Mac and send us more fe

Great feedback. Luckily, entire app works on your computer so, there's not video data going to server. Only thing we track is non-video usage data. Hope that alleviates your concerns!

We hope that at some point gestures become small enough that you don't have to feel socially awkward. At some point, in future, we will interact with machines just like we do it with other humans - through voice, touch, vision... we hope t

Great points and feedback for us. The app works locally on you machine, so no video data is leaving your laptop. Nothing to opt-out when we're not collecting anything. It is only available for Mac right now. We will have that info on our

Hi Guys, we just hated using our keyboards and mouse to control music. Especially, when it's in the background or when we're few feet away. We're just in alpha and launched one gesture - we hope to add many more soon. Thanks for your kin
