Supported GoPros: Hero 5, Hero 5 session, Hero 6, Hero 7, Hero 8, MAX Limited support*: Hero 9, Hero 10 No support: Hero 4 and earlier MultiPro allows you to control multiple GoPros at the same time and apply ProTune settings from your phone. This app has several advantages over other GoPro apps: Faster Connection: By using Bluetooth instead of Wifi, this app connects to your GoPros significantly faster. Longer Battery Time Bluetooth (BLE = Bluetooth Low Energy) requires up to 90% less energy than Wifi, hence your battery will last longer. Connect Multiple Cameras If you use multiple GoPros at the same time, this app allows you to control all of them without the need to switch or re-connect. Remote Control ProTune Settings Change important settings like Resolution, Frames Per Second, White Balance, Shutter Speed, Max ISO, Image Stabilisation and EV Compensation remotely. Save Presets Save your settings as presets in order to easily apply multiple configurations to all your cameras. Quick Settings Quickly set often changing settings like 'White Balance' or 'Maximum ISO' for all cameras from the control screen with just one click. Supports FPV usage When using a naked GoPro on your drone, MultiPro allows you to set relevant settings such as sharpness, color profile, video format, etc. No LiveView: Please be advised that it is not possible to get a live feed of the video while using Bluetooth. Use the official GoPro app for this.
