Hey Gang,
Does anyone have a recommendation for an Android tracking marker app? I’ll need to use a custom image. For iOS, I like tracking markers and it looks like they have an Android version of it, but I can’t confirm.
Thanks!

Hey John,
I had that made (a long time ago) at my previous company and there should be an Android version… (but I can’t find it right now.. weird..) .. I’ll ask if there’s an apk or something somewhere..
Personally, I try to avoid any tracking markers on screens, it screws up the reflections.
I like really small ones. That way they are useful, easy to remove and don’t take up enough of the screen area to make the reflections useless.
Which begs the question, why not just make a custom screen in flame or photoshop and load it onto the phone? The thing I like about android is that you can plug it into a windows or linux machine and it pops up like any other external drive.
You often need an app to get rid of the carrier and signal information at the top, and more importantly to keep the tracker/chromakey image to keep from moving around if the talent needs to tap/pinch/swipe/etc.
Thanks guys! We’re going with a custom image that maps out where the talent needs to tap/swipe and we’re using this app to lock the screen:
