5/5Great app to control GP11 while its mounted
The app been a great help. However, I need to open up my mobile phone to control.. it’s already a great feature but we just keep wanting more. now, I want an Apple Watch version of this app so that I don’t have to take out my phone. Developer, please think about it.

5/5Best app I’ve seen in a very long time
This application not only works but works consistently and provides a level of control of your cameras that I never had before. I look forward to continued improvement of this app even though just as is today it’s already perfect

5/5Great app
This so far has been the best app. Only one that I can see has the preview functionality. Only wish is to be able to change camera names. I use all four cameras on a regular bases and would love to name each camera separately. Otherwise. Highly recommend

5/5Ignore the low ratings!!!!
Its safe to ignore the low ratings! Works great on my Hero5 Session, Hero8 and Hero10. The quick access to controls, controlling all cameras at once, and ability to edit presets etc makes this more powerful than the official app. It works EVERY TIME for me so far. Changes I’d like to see: - The UI could use an update, design and organization are not perfect. - Watch app. I had to buy GoRemo to control from my watch and it’s absolutely terrible. - Help tooltip buttons in the settings menus.

5/5Awesome!
So many years in hotel rooms past midnight trying to pair cameras… over. In 10 minutes, paired 4 cameras and was ready to roll- in an environment with over 100 Bluetooth devices. All 4 on one screen. Live preview might be a little laggy but still indispensable. Wonderful work. I will use this every time. Worth a lot more than the price you are charging. Every other application should be this good. All the stuff.
