Best Practices for GoPro Usage with iOS App

Thanks for the report! I agree, using an action cam mounted on the hood produces really excellent photos (no windscreen and no car hood in the way). From now on, this will pretty much be the only way I’ll be taking photos myself.

  • If possible, use 0.5s as more images is always better, but takes up more space. I have a 64 Gb iPhone so it’s not a problem for me, but I realise most people have 16 Gb.
  • I find placing it on the front of the hood the best. That way I can put it straight forward, otherwise I have to tilt it a bit upwards to avoid the car hood.

On related news: I have now added support for Hero3 cameras and also Garmin VirbX and VirbXE. I have also added a high-speed mode using time-lapse, which means you can get down to 0.5 second intervalls. Also a bunch of stability improvements and the ability to delete app data manually. All of this will be out in the next version of the app.
