    ohh !! yeah..forgot to put that … it does have that limitation ..but main thing is that this application is free… whereas for mobiola you need to pay.

    Your product is really great, but I wish you could have added cable support also :-D ..

    Dear henry !! as i already mentioned, Mobiola web camera is paid , whereas WWIGO is free.

    Thanks for this useful information.

    I never knew about this article on your blog. I read your comments on Nirmal’s blog and followed the link.

    This seems to be really useful. I am going to give it a try right now.

    @rakshit
    welcome , :) .. glad that you liked it .. if you have a s60 3ed phone, this software is a good option. But again you might need a mobile holder as image quality from front camera is really poor.

    Will you put usb connectivity for this program?

    Ano Commented on

    Even if it’s free if we cannot use it, then it’s still useless. but thanks anyway… Please develop one which enables cable connection also. Thanks

    Trying it now… :)

    I hope the developers are listening… anyways .. you can always give suggestions at http://www.motvik.com/forum/index.php

    Thanks for the information, I’m going to try it out now. will let you know how it goes.

    hi kanak, i cant connect my nokia n73 to wwigo. each time its showing error… how can i do that?

    @sohel,
    As long as your phone support bluetooth there must not be any problem. However any queries and for error, you can posts details at their support forum link in above comment. It works fine on my N95 too.. just that clarity of video is very bad.
