Every item in Options, grouped as on screen. \u201cDefault\u201d is the factory value of a fresh install (from the bundled default preset); \u201c\u2014\u201d means the row is an action or the value lives on the camera body.<\/p>

Playback cache<\/h3>

One cache for every camera you have connected. Opened clips and photos are kept on the phone so re-opening is instant. The limit is enforced after every download across all bodies (oldest clips are removed first); CLEAR frees everything now. FORGET removes one body's gallery \u2014 index, thumbnails and cached files \u2014 from the phone; it comes back the next time that body connects.<\/p>

Live View resolution<\/h3>

Camera-side image size for the feed (Nikon LiveViewImageSize) \u2014 the three sizes the camera offers. Frame rate is limited by the link's round-trip time (one request per frame), not by the camera: smaller sizes answer faster. Compression changes bytes per frame, not fps. Remembered PER CAMERA (edits the live body; a first-time body starts at VGA). Multi View background windows are capped at 30 fps at any size.<\/p>

Live View quality<\/h3>

Camera-side JPEG compression of the feed (Nikon LiveViewImageCompression).

Camera default is Basic \u2013 Size priority; the app ships with Normal \u2013 Size priority.

Adaptive quality<\/h3>

When the Wi-Fi link can't carry your chosen Live View quality (fast pans, detail-heavy scenes, slow links), the app temporarily steps the camera's preview down \u2014 compression first (Fine \u2192 Normal \u2192 Basic), then size (XGA \u2192 VGA \u2192 QVGA) \u2014 to hold the frame rate, and restores your settings once the link recovers. Off by default (also after a reset); applies to the live camera.<\/p>

Sensor-paced polling<\/h3>

The camera refreshes its preview at the sensor frame rate; asking faster only re-downloads the same picture. When enabled, the app locks its requests to the camera's frame rate or an exact fraction of it (50 \u2192 25 or 16.7 fps, 60 \u2192 30 or 20 fps, 24 \u2192 24 fps), picked from the link's speed, so every shown frame advances the same number of sensor frames \u2014 a steady cadence instead of a beat pattern, and no airtime spent on duplicates. Where the link cannot carry even a third of the sensor rate (under 16 fps) the feed stays unpaced. Off by default.<\/p>

Haptics<\/h3>

Two classes, set separately. TAPS & TOGGLES = the tick you feel on buttons, chips, tabs, menu rows and tool toggles. CAMERA CONFIRMATIONS = the Success \/ Warning buzz when the camera accepts or refuses a change (program, codec, tap-AF, eye switch, Body Control writes, connection). Off mutes only that class; Light replaces the iOS pattern with a single soft tap; Strong adds a heavy tap. All settings travel with presets.
