### 1/5 — No new GoPro's

Aaaaa

### 1/5 — Неудобно

Очень неудобно подключать

### 5/5 — 화불좀 부탁드립니다

어플 상세 이것저거 보다가 결제가 바로 넘어가버리네요..

### 1/5 — Terribly disappointed

*2025-06-28*

this is the worst app ever I tried to pair it with my hero 10 black, but it did not work. I tried to pair it with my hero five session. It did not work. I am so sad that I got this app for no reason so if I can give this app zero stars, I would.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-02-12*

I paid £13 for this app and it won’t connect to my GoPro and I can’t download load anything.

### 1/5 — Complete waste of time

*2024-11-27*

Downloaded this, as it’s the only available GoPro app that works with this version of iOS (courtesy of Apple’s greed-driven planet-screwing planner obsolescence strategy. Got it to pair with the camera, but couldn’t try out the functions because the developer insists you buy the app first (you have a vague idea of what it can do, though, as the menus are under the annoying nag screen). Said screen (to purchase full version) requires an internet connection, which isn’t possible if you’re out of mobile data range and your phone’s WiFi is connected to the camera!

### 5/5 — It is good😃

*2024-04-07*

I can confirm that this is a very good app i can use it to control hero 6

### 1/5 — Waste of time and doesn’t connect .

*2024-01-13*

I hate it when I run into such a piece of crap app that I take the time share.  This is high on my all-time worst apps.

### 1/5 — Utterly useless

*2024-01-06*

Cannot connect to your camera

### 1/5 — Trash

*2023-09-09*

I can’t even connect my GoPro hero eight it doesn’t work with the GoPro eights that’s just dumb. Why does it not work? I am annoyed and I don’t like this app is trash.
