$239 USD

By Mark

Editor's Rating:

If you love making movies, the SmoothVu Video Stabilizer for Smartphones and GoPro keeps your footage steady. This tiny rig offers complete 3-axis stabilization thanks to efficient brushless motors. SmoothVu keeps your phone charged, and controls on the stabilizer let you operate your camera with one hand. It means you can keep your shot steady, even while walking or skating. The SmoothVu also comes with a huge list of accessories. You get a professional recording mic for better sound, plus high-intensity lights to improve your picture in low light. In addition, the pack includes a hard case and wide-angle lenses for your smartphone. The SmoothVu app gives you extra features, like face tracking and a teleprompter. Alternatively, the stabilizer works perfectly with your GoPro action camera, letting you take HD slow-mos and other cool footage.

What a piece of crap doesn't even turn on, fuck me mate thanks for the great product!!

Review from Kickstarter

Wow this is disappointing. I saw an ad for another similar product that reminded me that this was still not resolved. What recourse do we have as backers to get a working product or our money back?

Hello Parviz Zakeri,
If it is not too late will you please add my name to the list? Thank you in advance.

Hi Parviz, Did you receive my name and information? I never got confirmation and would gladly add my name to the list if it isn't currently on there.

Dear Bob, I have received 31 names as full and final for the statement of claim. As I have stated in the past, we will need minimum of 40 names to cover the costs. However, I am persuading my principal solicitor for lodging the above SOC with these 31 names only. This is a kindly notice and may use any in proceedings as it is the only way of communication and announcement with you (Mr. Bob Gruder). All backers inclusive of myself have tried to solve the issue with you in all the manner but you refused to make any progress as you are legally obligated to fulfill the promises of your project. again we remind you that you must give backers a recourse if they don't and as a creator you have not made a good faith effort to complete the project and fulfil this project or any offer to the backer. Please update immediately
Regards,
Parviz Zakeri

Please add my name to the petition. Maybe someone needs to include Kickstarter in this petition so that they’ll actually do some due diligence in the future and protect consumers better.

perhaps if Mr. Gruder was not busy launching his next scam (Kody backpack) on Kickstarter he might have time to address our problems, this makes me doubt Kickstarter as well as Mr. Gruder

this makes me sad, I'm just an old lady on a fixed income who wanted to give a young parent a special gift instead, it is clutter. I will be more careful in the future.

Can I interest anyone here in a $200 paperweight? Comes with a pretty nifty case.

no use to comment here anymore. this motherfucker ran away with our money.

Russ Wielenbeck

Review from Kickstarter

I sit and look at my SmoothVu case that I haven’t opened since I got it and wonder will this turn out for the better? Is there any update you can give on ANY progress or no progress to tame the festering frustration of not being able to use this product as intended? I really think it’s as simple as what I’m doing here... post an update with what’s going on to at least restore some form of trust that you aren’t scamming us out of our money.

Jose Marrosu

Review from Kickstarter

I believe that it was enough time to solve a problem of poor quality of your product, I require you to do the return of my money as soon as possible.
Your Project is a FRAUD.
I do not want any replacement of the equipment, just give me back my money, I already buy the OSMO Mobile DJI and the difference in quality is total, and in equal price.

Abhijeet Sarkar

Review from Kickstarter

I demand a refund. You committed to resolve all issues once your other project is successfully funded. Time and again you have failed to deliver on your promises. I have no interest in partnering with you any longer. Please do the necessary to offer full refund.

Omar B Rimawi

Review from Kickstarter

We're knocking on 2018's door and still don't have any updates. I think we're being ghosted. Has anyone here communicated with him since his update on October 9th? Kickstarter's staff has been 100% useless in helping me get an answer.

Alfian Ismail

Review from Kickstarter

Happy Holidays! It's high time we all receive an update on the progress of your rectification.

What shall we do now? Letter to Kickstarter?

Mark Antoney Pacheco

Review from Kickstarter

@Bob, Where are we now??? It's gonna be almost 2 months since an update regarding this.
You are still raising funds from your kody pack and looks like you are part what is needed.
I think it's high time another update is provided. Mark

Parviz Zakeri

Review from Kickstarter

That was only a kindly reminder before I make a campaign against you as I did request an update two months ago and u didn’t follow.
Please update us immediately with full explanation.

Parviz Zakeri

Review from Kickstarter

Is a creator legally obligated to fulfill the promises of their project? Yes. Kickstarter's Terms of Use require creators to fulfill all rewards of their project or refund any backer whose reward they do not or cannot fulfill. (This is what creators see before they launch.) We crafted these terms to create a legal requirement for creators to follow through on their projects, and to give backers a recourse if they don't. We hope that backers will consider using this provision only in cases where they feel that a creator has not made a good faith effort to complete the project and fulfill.

Parviz Zakeri

Review from Kickstarter

If the problems are severe enough that the creator can't fulfill their project, creators need to find a resolution. Steps could include offering refunds, detailing exactly how funds were used, and other actions to satisfy backers.

Parviz Zakeri

Review from Kickstarter

If problems come up, creators are expected to post a Project Update (which is emailed to all backers) explaining the situation. Sharing the story, speed bumps and all, is crucial. Most backers support projects because they want to see something happen ?????!!!!?????
and they'd like to be a part of it. ( if we didn’t back you this project would never happen)
You most update us !

Review from Kickstarter

This needs to be reported to kickstarter, not sure if it will solve anything. But we can’t just do nothing

Robert van der Zwart

Review from Kickstarter

Bob is just an unreliable son of bitch. We all lost money. Very disappointing that he can just start another project, raise money and not fulfilling his promises on this project. Basically het stole $49.078 from his backers. Thats a more then average yearly salary for John Doe.

Omar B Rimawi

Review from Kickstarter

5 weeks since the last update. I'd like to hear something. Were the new units you tested any good? Do we have a timeline now that the other Kickstarter has concluded? As per Kickstarter's accountability blog post: "Is a creator legally obligated to fulfill the promises of their project? Yes. Kickstarter's Terms of Use require creators to fulfill all rewards of their project or refund any backer whose reward they do not or cannot fulfill. (This is what creators see before they launch.) We crafted these terms to create a legal requirement for creators to follow through on their projects, and to give backers a recourse if they don't. We hope that backers will consider using this provision only in cases where they feel that a creator has not made a good faith effort to complete the project and fulfill." I'd rather not have it get to that, but 5 weeks with no updates after being incredibly patient with this flub is something I can't overlook.

Yu-Jiang

Review from Kickstarter

He only got 7500k above his initial budget from the Kodi project. I’m still mad of the fact that he tries to solve a failed kickstarter project with another one. Like I said in my last message, don’t expect anything this year. Especially with his low attention and response rate here. He won’t and can’t give us money back. So we’re basically screwed and Bob can do whatever he wants.

Rakesh Rao

Review from Kickstarter

While Bob has been trying very hard to rectify the mistakes and errors in fulfilling the promises of this project, it just seems a lost cause now. My SmoothVU is practically DOA and unusable as it stands. Overall not the quality that was expected. Refund would be the right thing to do - since the product is not as per the initial descriptions and information. But that seems to be out of reach - knowing that correcting this project depends entirely on the success of another Kickstarter project.

Alfian Ismail

Review from Kickstarter

Updates, please.
