Pairing the EP Recorder App with EP Animations
Follow these steps to connect your iPhone running EP Recorder with your computer running EP Animations.
💡 New in version 3.0.9: You can now pair using a QR code as well as the existing pin code. Both methods are covered in step 5 below — use whichever you prefer.
1. Connect to the Same Network
Make sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
- Connect your computer and iPhone to the same Wi-Fi network
- OR
- Turn on Personal Hotspot on your iPhone and connect your computer to it
2. Open Both Applications
- Launch EP Animations on your computer
- Open the EP Recorder app on your iPhone
3. Select EP Recorder in EP Animations
- Go to the Session section (top left)
- Select “EP Recorder app”
4. Start the Pairing Process on Your Computer
- Click “Pair with EP Recorder App”
- Or select it from the Options menu in the toolbar
- Select your iPhone from the list
- Click “Pair Device”
💡 If your iPhone was previously paired, click “Unpair Device” first.
5. Pair Your iPhone — QR Code or Pin Code
From version 3.0.9 you can pair using a QR code (the quickest option) or the existing 6-digit pin code. Choose one of the two options below.
Option A — Pair via QR Code (version 3.0.9 and later)
- In the pairing dialog you opened in step 4, click “Pair via QR Code” (you don’t need to select your iPhone from the list first, even though it appears there)
- A QR code will appear on your computer screen
- In the EP Recorder app, open the camera view and scan the QR code
Pairing completes automatically once the code is scanned — you can skip step 6 and go straight to step 7 (Confirm Connection).
Option B — Pair via Pin Code
- On your iPhone, tap the Wi-Fi icon (top right), then tap “Start Pairing”
- A 6-digit code will appear on your iPhone
- Enter this code in EP Animations
6. Complete the Pairing (pin code method only)
- (Optional) Check “Keep Device Paired”
- Click “Pair”
7. Confirm Connection
Both your iPhone and computer will show a confirmation message when pairing is successful.
Tips
- Keep both devices on the same network during pairing
- If pairing fails, restart both apps and try again
