Crappola for the Hero+ & is Ripoff
MalignantNarcissitWH
BS ripoff. It sounds like it works with any GoPro, but only works with Hero 4, though it says you can “force” Hero 3. Thanks for the internet-highway-robbery.
Stay away. Crap.

This doesn't work with Hero3. Or I should say, EVERYTHING but the preview works... You know, the only thing I wanted it for. Yep, they got me.
Don’t buy this garbage

It won’t even open. This is a garbage app and I wasted $3. Don’t make my mistake
4 stars for some feature, 2 stars for others...

I needed to find an GoPro Hero 3 app that was more simpler and offered the ability to turn off the "preview" sound on start up. I found this app and it works fine as long as you stay on the main tab or settings. But once you click on the "Preview" tab, that's when bad things happen. What strange is that it says it's "Starting Preview…" even though the toggle nob is in the "off" position. Shouldn't you "Start preview" after I move the toggle button to the on position? That's needs to be updated. Also, the stability of the "preview" is worse than the GoPro App. What I mean is the "preview" tab gets stuck in a loop forces you to force quit the app and reopen it. If you manage to view a preview it will skip and judder in a loop until it finally locks up. Be aware that I did not get this app for the preview feature. In fact, I was looking for an app that: 1) Worked with Hero 3 (check) 2) Didn't have a preview feature on the main page (check) 3) Had the ability to turn off sound reception on the preview mode so I can avoid the "feedback" problem (Not offered; neither does the GoPro App either) 4) Bigger buttons on the main tab so I can press them easier than the tiny buttons on the GoPro App (check) All in all, I'm fine with the purchase. I just hope updates are offered. I'll keep using it until GoPro updates theirs better than the main tab of this one. Oh, and I also noticed that sometimes the "fps" settings didn't work. I had to change the 720p to 1080p, and then back to 720p before I was able to get the 60fps to switch to 30fps. What I think is happening is that it really is changing the frames per second, but it's not registering on screen until you change the video resolution. Bug?
Waste of money

Great idea but I spent 1.99 for nothing. Wish I could get it back. It turns the power on/off and will start to record/stop video...that's it. It recognizes my gopro as a 2 and not a 3 which is what it is. The preview, which was the reason I bought this, toggles between off/on all by it self. Very disappointed.

Worst app ever!!! Freezes at set up, freezes at preview, horrible lag at preview mode. I mean who has time to for that when one is into the moment? Wish I saw the official gopro app, which is free. Go to gopro website to download their free app!!!

biggest wast of money. I can't be leave that this App is not pulled off of the App store. I just wish I could get my money back, it's just the principle of it not the amount.
Not quite there, & a LONG way to go.

Perhaps GoPro should take a little blame here too. By far this camera is the biggest piece of garbage I've EVER purchased. Truth be told....this app may be ok, the HERO 3 Black is NOT! What a joke. The app would be awesome if it actually worked AT ALL. This app's got more bugs than a low income apartment building in July. Feel like I need to take my phone to Vex-con, & Billy the exterminator for help. Someone seriously dropped the ball here, & there really is little excuse for it considering the fact that they're charging money for it. Horrible lag, constant loss of Wi-Fi connection, switches on/off on its own, preview is barely mediocre on its best day, Etc. I honestly have nothing good to say at all, as of yet. We'll see what the creators come up with in the future. Only one update this far in over a week, Ha! I won't be holding my breath. :-( Latest update:::: (Option to change to the Wi-Fi RC) Seems like the very least of things needing attention here, But.....that's one good thing, hopefully it works.
