Purchased it, but no download?

OK, I’m not sure how it’s supposed to work but I’ve paid for apps before and I was either able to download them first or a self installed. It’s been 10 minutes and I still have a blank screen. So for now, I’ll have to give it a one since you can’t give it a zero.

Schrott, Finger weg🤮🤬

Die App wurde vorschriftsmäßig auf der Watch geladen. Die GoPro Max wird nicht gefunden. Das Erklärungs-Video nicht es nicht mehr. Unverschämtheit. Schade, dass keine 0 Sterne Bewertung gibt. ICH WILL MEIN GELD WIEDER HABEN.

Doesn't work

This app Doesn't work on GoPro 10

Работает

С часами Apple watch ultra 2 и камерой GoPro Hero 13 black работает прекрасно. Теперь не нужно покупать пульт для подводной съемки за совершенно другие деньги.

在我换了新手表s9之后,还是不能正常连接我的hero9,总是提示error。我用s6的时候就不能正常用,再买了一次还是不可以。因此我请求退款了
