## Description

LIVE4 turns your GoPro into a true live-action camera that you can control from your iPhone. Stream sports, concerts, races, and life moments to Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and 30+ platforms simultaneously. Add a watermark to brand your content and engage audiences in real time with live comments and reactions.

Designed to handle imperfect networks, LIVE4 caches your stream when the connection is weak and automatically reconnects when the signal returns. It supports a wide range of GoPro cameras (from HERO3+ to HERO7 and newer) and lets you keep footage on your camera for later editing if you prefer.

## Review summary

User sentiment is mixed. The app is praised for easy setup and GoPro-native streaming, including posting to managed Facebook pages and support for older GoPro models. However, many reviews complain that Hero 8+ and newer models are not supported, the app seems abandoned and stops working after policy changes, and streaming quality is often low (480p) with frequent glitches and disconnects. Stability and reliability issues, plus watermarks on the free version, further dampen experience. Support responsiveness is inconsistent.

### Pros

- Very easy to set up, with a quick, one-button setup.
- Allows live streaming directly from a GoPro without using or exposing the phone.
- Supports streaming to Facebook pages you manage (not just a personal profile).
- Works with older GoPro models (e.g., Hero 5/7) according to user reports.
- When it works, streaming quality is acceptable for mobile networks (e.g., 480p).

### Cons

- No support for GoPro Hero 8/Max and newer; users repeatedly request updates.
- App appears abandoned or stops working after platform/policy changes (e.g., Facebook streaming changes).
- Video quality is often low or inconsistent (around 480p) with frequent glitches and buffering.
- Frequent stability issues—disconnects, crashes, and bugs during streaming.
- Free version uses watermarks and embeds LIVE4 branding on videos.
