Continuous *live* scope capture

The Pokitmeter app scope mode as I have it now captures samples for a selected period then displays them.

I was expecting that the scope function would give a live, or as close to live as feasible, impression of what the Pokit was measuring as  in a normal oscilloscope.

Can you please provide this functionality, as this is at the core of what I need the Pokit for.

Battery life be damned!

I am sure the sample capturing mode will still be useful in many cases.

  Hello Jasper,
  I agree with your request for activation of this feature, by Pokit Innovations, because I also need this feature. However, I honestly expected this feature from the start.
  I hope that this will be recorded with one of the soon following updates.
  With the request to do this to Pokit Innovations.
  Best regards
  Ingo

  Agreed.  I almost always have both hands holding probes.  -russg

  Agreed, I was a bit startled to see that Pokit did not do this already. Continuous capture should be the default.

  Using the pokitmeter a lot recently and am really struggling with the capture thing. Need another hand 8).

   Can someone from Pokit innovations comment on whether this feature request is on the roadmap.

  Cheers

  I, too, expected a live capture when using the oscilloscope.feature. It should definitely be included as an option in a future update. Lacking the ability to view a real-time signal severely limits the capabilities of the device.

  As far as I know, it still isn't available (or is it?).
  I know, that it would probably reduce the battery lifetime significantly, but I think, this is acceptable.

  I would be interestet in this feature too; for the Pokit meter as well as the Pokit Pro in the future.
  From my point of view, this is essential for so many applications where the pokit could be a great tool.
  This is the main reason for me, why I didn't order mine jet.

  Thanks a lot!
