    I have been messing with it today and what I have been able to do is record a video and I'm done it uploads it straight onto the qik.com website. You can send a share email to friends to go onto the site and live chat with you once it's uploaded. It's awesome. Make sure you just sign up on the QIK WEBSITE. It makes it easier to just punch in your login and password on the program. Very nice app though.

    I don't think I had to change anything. It will always be in Portrait mode for qik. I couldn't seem to get it out of that mode. All of my permissions are set to allow and compatibility mode is disabled. You just click on the dot to start recording and when you are done just press back to go into qik again. Wait a little bit and you will see the upload progress in the top right corner of the screen.

    Have you got it to work for you yet? I'm still trying to figure out how to stream live... They made it sound like it could do this, but still I'm in the same boat that you are. It uploads after I'm finished recording. I wouldn't see how it would work right unless you were running on WiFi.

    Doesnt work. I played with it a couple weeks ago and again today with the updated version. Its not even close to a live stream. It just uploads the video you recorded to the site. A short delay would be okay, but it takes forever. I'm faster uploading a video to youtube from my phone. Pretty useless until it really becomes a live feed.

    its an alpha version you guys. Its not even close to being a full app yet. You cant expect it to be absolutely perfect, or even close to it at this stage.

    No but if they say it does something, then it should do what they say it does.

    Im running it under .122 and the new version works great. The last version was really buggy (uploaded only partial vids, etc.) but this version has uploaded every single video.

    I hope in the future it streams live, but for now, the upload after i'm done recording will have to do. I've had no issues with it so far.
