Review summary

QRControl is praised for its usefulness and ease in managing GoPro settings through QR codes, with strong developer support and compatibility with various GoPro models. However, multiple users report significant issues such as the app dimming the screen uncontrollably after updates, white blank screens on launch, and failures in saving QR codes. Some complain about invalid setting combinations allowed and some missing features. Despite these drawbacks, the app remains a favored tool for quickly configuring GoPro cameras, especially users working with GoPro Labs firmware.
Pros
  • Very useful and easy to use with nearly complete feature set for GoPro control.
  • Allows creating and managing QR codes to quickly set GoPro camera settings.
  • The app supports backwards compatibility with older GoPro models and firmware versions.
  • Developers are responsive and provide prompt help resolving issues.
  • Offers convenience over using physical cards or the GoPro website to manage settings.
Cons
  • Recent updates cause screen brightness issues, including automatic dimming and loss of brightness control, making the app difficult to use.
  • Some users experience a white blank screen on app launch, causing usability problems.
  • The app sometimes allows selecting camera setting combinations that are not valid or supported by the camera.
  • Saving QR codes can fail, with errors and lack of accessible image gallery or permissions to save codes.
  • Certain features like front display options, USB power event triggers, or support for newer GoPro models (Hero 9, 10, 12) are missing or limited.

be careful. the app lets you choose settings that are not available on the camera. like certain combinations of settings. make sure the combination of settings is actually an option of the camera.

GoPro 12 Labs firmware just dropped providing new options for the log and HDR profiles, among other things. Hopefully these aren't too difficult to add! Thank you in advance :)
