Sending Back My Official GoPro Remote
ThumbnailGuy
I bought 2 GoPro 12s for stereoscopic video, along with the Official physical GoPro remote. While it technically worked, the buttons are hard to press, screen isn’t backlit, and every time you use it you have to pair the cameras manually. Startup takes about 2 minutes of button pressing, and it often randomly stops working within 5 minutes of usage. This app however connects automatically, has 100x the control, stays connected (and from a distance), oh and it’s backlit. For 1/10th of the price it’s the best money I ever spent. Thank you to the app creator for making it public and keeping it up to date!
AmaZing , better than $100 remote

Very good app. But PLEASE make a quick capture button (big and bold on entire screen, also showing rec status) for ALL gopros at same time!
Developer Response
Thanks for your feedback!

- Fixed: Decoding artifacts in live preview (especially Hero 13)
- Fixed: Press-and-hold on a camera list entry now correctly opens a context menu.
