Insta360 17+

Great app but needs some fine tuning still

The app is great but there are little corks that throw me off, as others I expect. I have chosen United States and my phone is in the English language and still parts of the app are in different languages. For example the achievements badges and let of the gold store. Also I would love the ability to close out of a video on the shots lab without having to watch the video all the way through once I enter full screen mode. Other than that the app is well polished and works great with the camera I bought. So other wants would were we could connect it with cloud storage servers to easily backup and or transfer files. The ability to duplicate video files would be nice as well as we will always have a unedited backup. Great work one the app!

Great app but...

I have used various 360 cameras and Pps over the years and Insta360 app is by far the best. Inutive and very easy to use. I have two problems with. The first being that I have original One X which they have locked out of some special features. There are minor differences between the One X, R and One X II major reason why haven't upgraded. Instead they have decided to limit functions in the app for my camera the same (to be clear these features were present for the One X to be pulled later which kind of confirms that it is not a hardware limitation.
The next issue is soul crushing and makes no sense. When using video I can't make stay on 5K. Anytime I stop using the app it switches back to 4K. This not how it functions when I use the camera without the app. I like to reframe which works better with 5K and never or rarely want 4K. So frustrating. I can't tell you how many times I have stopped a video and start again only to realize I hadn't reset back to 5K. I'm guessing that this is a weird hardware issue when connected through WiFi but I don't care if it drains the batter more, just allow for the default setting be changed. I have looked for one and have not been able to find it yet.

Why such poor iPad support?

Love the camera, the app works very well and I’m certain I haven’t even made full use of it yet.. But I have to say I am incredibly disappointed with the iPad version of this app. It’s the exact same as the phone, just scaled to a larger screen. As someone that does 90% of their editing from an iPad, it is so frustrating that I have to work off my phone to make edits to my videos. At the very least there needs to be a horizontal mode because as it stands I have to disconnect my keyboard and work with the naked iPad to do any editing. Why not make use of the extra power? I will absolutely come back and update this to a five start if this issue is resolved. I don’t know how I can take this seriously as a professional level action camera if I am forced to edit off a phone.

Edit:
The Developer has updated to include much, much better iPad support. This app is fantastic and an appropriate companion to a phenomenal camera.
