United StatesThis is the paid version of "Insta360 Control" app. Please try the free version before purchasing this app.
------------------------------------------------------
Remote control your Insta 360 camera,
either from your Wear OS watch or from your Android phone.
This application connects to your Insta 360 camera through bluetooth connection and lets you capture photos or videos using your Wear OS watch as a remote control.
It also supports sending GPS data (location, elevation, speed, heading) to the camera for stats recording.

+ Controls over Bluetooth , easy & quick
+ GPS (Stats) data feeding to video recording

+ Runs both on watch (standalone) or phone
- No Liveview
Watch Control Pro for Insta360 (other app):
- Controls over wifi, not as easy as bluetooth and disables internet connection while using
- incompatibility issues coming from different watch/camera pairs
+ Liveview while recording/capturing
Insta360 models supported:

IMPORTANT:
You can use the app on your phone and/or on your watch. The app itself is free but for full access you have to make a payment. If you pay on your phone, it will be detected after a few minutes when you reopen the app on your watch. You don't have to pay twice for using on both phone and watch.
FOR GPS RECORDING:
GPS Recording requires the app to be open on screen or have permission to do background activity.
You can either enable background activity on Wearable app for this application (and then you can turn of the screen manually) OR our update (4.56) will keep the screen on (dimmed) while recording with GPS data.
App works great for X3, galaxy watch 5pro. Live preview and ability to switch between front and rear camera would be great....that's my only reason for not giving 5 stars. However you can listen to sound from device to confirm picture taking or start/stop of video. Outside of all that great app. Hoping for new features for 2024.
Doesn't work and the developer doesn't care about it
Bought to send gps data from watch so I don't drain phone's battery. Two things: - you must select 'GPS' in video mode in the dropdown within the app. This locks your video resolution & fps to a certain option, in my case 5.7K 30fps (OneR) - if you've pressed the record button and the app screen doesn't change to the single white video button within a square, this means that it isn't connected to the camera properly and NOT sending any data to it. Reset the camera (off and on) and try again
Good Insta360 remote app, works well with my One RS Twin. I'd give 5* but it needs a way to keep the screen awake and the photo/video buttons are a bit small and close together on my Galaxy Watch 4.
the app is good but it would be great if it had the ability to manage loop video
Even with allowed background activity (watch app settings) it doesnt work on Galaxy Watch 5. It stops recording GPS data after few seconds. Unfourtnately, tested app only some days after, so couldnt get refund even if I have never succesfully used it.
Doesn't work on latest Samsung
- Added GPS-HDR option for GPS Stats recording while recording HDR video.
- fix to "stop button not working after screen off"
GPS Recording requires the app to be open on screen or have permission to do background activity.
With this update the app will keep the screen on (dimmed) while recording with GPS data.
If you don't want to keep the screen on, you can enable background activity on Wearable app for this application and then you can turn of the screen manually.
