Control multiple GoPro® Hero cameras with Low Energy Bluetooth.

Features & Capabilities

Bluetooth Remote for GoPro® lets you control multiple GoPro Hero cameras using low-energy Bluetooth to save battery compared to Wi‑Fi. The extension supports a wide range of models (Hero 3–13 series, Fusion, Max, and more) and provides quick camera status (recording time, free space, battery, lens/mic mounts) and locating via beep.

Core features include Bluetooth start/stop recording, moment tagging, date/time setting, powering off, and multi-camera control. Pro features add synchronized recording across cameras, Protune and settings editing, presets for Hero 8 and newer, full-screen live preview for one camera, media download, and keyboard control support. Ideal for action shooters, multicam rigs, and travel content creators who need fast, low-power remote control and media access.

User Reviews

Users appreciate that the app successfully controls certain GoPro models remotely and offers more straightforward multitasking than official apps. It's well priced for pro features and supports older cameras abandoned by GoPro. However, many reviews highlight that the free version is essentially unusable, connectivity issues are common, advanced features are locked behind paywalls, and the app can be unstable or hard to use without instructions. These issues make users hesitant to purchase without a trial, affecting overall satisfaction.
Pros
  • Works well with certain GoPro models like Hero 7, Hero 9, and Hero 5, providing remote control functions.
  • Offers functionality to turn the camera on/off and start/stop video recording from the phone.
  • More straightforward to use than GoPro's official Quik app for managing multiple cameras.
  • Fairly priced pro upgrade (around $5.99 to $7) compared to the official GoPro remote.
  • Provides a viable alternative for controlling older GoPro models no longer supported by official apps.
Cons
  • Free version is highly limited or non-functional, forcing users to pay upfront without a proper trial or demo.
  • App often fails to connect or maintain a stable connection with various GoPro models, especially older ones like Hero 3 and Hero 4.
  • Key features like live preview, media viewing, and advanced settings are locked behind a paywall or do not work properly.
  • Frequent crashes and instability reported, including device restarts or app closing on installation, especially on low-end Android devices.
  • No clear instructions or user guidance, making it difficult for users to understand app capabilities and functionality before purchase.
Recent reviews
App is free but none of the features work for free. The app prompts you to buy when you open it, and if you have a gift card from playing mobile games like I did, go ahead and pay, it's worth it! I did buy the paid option, because I have the hero session 5, so changing some settings, and previewing isn't a thing without this app. The app works well, just have to turn on the wifi to get the preview to work, and whatnot. I'll give it 5 stars!
