The UI could be a lot better, and there’s a locked aspect ratio for the photos you take on the app. ### 4/5 — Works Well *2025-06-11, version 1.0.7* Works on my iPhone 15 Pro and Fenix 8… but looks like it’s just for taking pictures…I hope the option to change aspect ratio will become available and also the trigger for a video recording as well. ### 3/5 — Functional *2024-10-01* Can’t believe it’s 2024 and this is the suggested 3rd party app to take photos with from a Garmin watch… technically works but takes absolutely ages to get one picture so you’d just as well use the 10 second timer on your phone. Comparable with Vivoactive 5 on an iPhone 15 pro ### 3/5 — Uses its own camera app *2024-06-03* As best I can tell, this is not just a remote shutter control for the native apple camera app. It has its own camera app which is simple, like there is no focus or exposure lock. It does take photos and sends them to my watch. I can limit its access to photos ive taken through the camera watch app. Naturally the requirement for internet access raises suspicion. I couldnt find the supplier on google but trust the apple store to have nothing bad on it :) ### 2/5 — Poor UI *2024-03-15, version 1.0.7* Overpriced. Not a lot of features. Remote open its own camera app which has poor UI and UserExp. There's just not much choice with Fitbit. ### 1/5 — 👎 *2024-03-06* Does not work. Lost money ### 1/5 — No go! *2024-02-27* Very disappointing. Can’t control what is being seen on the watch until picture is done ### 1/5 — Not working *2024-01-21, version 1.0.7* Not working ### 3/5 — It does what should do *2023-12-21* The iOS App is very simple. I miss an Option to disable transfering the taken picture to the Watch. ### 1/5 — Absolute Garbage *2023-11-29* Save your time, let alone your money. -No support for wide angle camera or alternate camera modes -takes up to 10 seconds to take photo -will not take photo at all sometimes -requires wifi to take picture -User interface is non-existent It’s a shame there’s not a better app for Garmin Watch's to take photos with. ### 1/5 — Not reliable app *2023-10-20* I am clearly connected to my phone and email notification are displaying on my watch and i tried using the app with my watch as remote it does not work. Sometimes it works but most of the time it doesn’t. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with Fitbit Inspire 3. *2023-09-30* Doesn’t work with Fitbit Inspire 3, even though it’s supposed to. Complete waste of money! ### 2/5 — Nul non abouti *2023-08-27* Aucun intérêt. Ne se connecte pas à l’application photo de l’iPhone mais prend des photos depuis cette application donc aucun réglage possible. Une fois la photo prise il faut attendre plus de 10s pour en prendre une autre, c’est très long. ### 3/5 — Works but very limited *2023-08-18* Have a Garmin Epic and the camera app on the watch will trigger the shutter on the phone. Must use the companion phone app which is very limited and has to be purchased . Would be nice if you could also start a video on the phone. Make sure the watch and phone are connected. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 使えません *2026-07-25* amazfit t-rex 3 pro では使えませんでした。金返してくれー！！！！！ ### 1/5 — Keine Qualität *2026-06-28* Fotos sind in extra App, kann keine livefotos oder so ist dann immer nur win kleines Bild. Habe zur probe 5 bilder mit der Uhr genacht und auch “success” angezeigt bekommen. Gemacht hat sber aber nur zwei von fünf ### 1/5 — 太垃圾，纯骗钱 *2026-06-17* 能不能升级一下，给弄的好用些，拍照手表都传输不过来，太垃圾 ### 1/5 — Horrible pixels! The pictures look like when first digital cameras came out! *2026-01-04* The camera on your phone does not go with this. The pixels look as if they came from the very first digital camera were made. Horrible! Would not recommend this at all. I wasted money! ### 1/5 — Not a good app *2025-11-09* Uses its own camera app, not the iPhone camera app. Cannot adjust settings, aspect ratios, video. It’s okay if you just want a selfie. ### 1/5 — Didn’t work for me. Waste of time and money *2025-07-14* Didn’t work for me. Instruction video poor. Couldn’t get app on to my Fitbit first generation versa watch ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-07-07* Paid, downloaded, then saw “not available” on my Fitbit when following the directions afterwards. Waisted time and money ### 1/5 — Деньги на ветер *2025-03-06* Чушь полная ,дистанционно делать снимок 😀на часах не отображается снимок,даже бесплатные приложения имеют лучший функционал 😂😂😂 ### 1/5 — Ga bagus *2025-02-22, version 1.0.7* Ga bisa running di app camera biasa ### 1/5 — Aucun intérêt *2024-05-08* Il faut ouvrir l’appli pour prendre des photos, il faut attendre 2min entre chaques photos … ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — App works fine *2025-11-26* You have to install this camera app and use it instead of the native camera App, but it works fine for me ### 5/5 — Works *2025-11-11, version 1.0.8* Works on my forerunner 165 and ip 13 pro ### 5/5 — Funktioniert tadellos. *2025-01-21* Die App funktioniert einwandfrei. Ich nutze sie mit der Garmin Fenix 7 und alles läuft reibungslos. ### 5/5 — It works! *2024-01-09, version 1.0.7* Tested it already multiple times on my iphone and Garmin 6x ### 5/5 — It works *2023-09-07* It does work in iphone 11 pro and forunner 955 ### 5/5 — Works well on my iPhone and Garmin Forerunner 245 *2023-05-10* This worked really well on my iPhone and Garmin Forerunner 245. I figured it was only a couple of GBP and it works really well. Used this to take a picture of my pet rabbit who is a bit skittish. ### 5/5 — あ *2023-05-07* ガーミン245から使えました ### 5/5 — Great app works perfectly *2020-05-30* I’ve got a Fitbit versa and using an iPhone 11 and it works perfectly this is just what I needed as a singer needing content for my instagram thanks so much for making this, I was going buy a remote for my phone but I didn’t want a remote in my hand in my pictures this is perfect as the watch is already on me very happy customer it works exactly how the video shows you it does ### 5/5 — App worked on Fitbit *2020-02-14* I use the app on the Fitbit Versa 2 watch ### 5/5 — As advertised *2020-01-06* I downloaded this app to my iPhone 8 Plus. It loaded up right away. I clicked ‘allow’ for permission to access my photos and my camera. I clicked open the app on my Versa 2. I tapped on the camera icon as I was holding up my phone. The app activated the shutter on my phone. No problems whatsoever. I look forward to using this with my selfie stick or to do group photos that I’m in, or maybe just instead of using the button on my phone. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
