Connecting your GoPro Hero 8 Black to your iPhone or Android phone is a straightforward process. Here’s how to do it.
First, go to the App Store on your phone and download the GoPro app. Once downloaded, open the app and tap on the left icon at the bottom of the screen.
Next, turn on your GoPro 8 and slide down from the top to the bottom of the screen. Tap on “Preferences” and then “Connections”. From there, tap on “Connect Device” and select “GoPro App” at the top.
Now, on your phone, tap on the same icon as before and then tap the plus sign. Let it search for the GoPro and then tap on “Connect Camera” when it finds your GoPro. You will then receive a Bluetooth pairing request, which you should accept.
You can change your GoPro 8 name if you wish and then tap on “Save New Name”. If an update for your camera is available, you can update it at this point.
Once you’ve completed these steps, you’re ready to start using your GoPro Hero 8 Black with your iPhone. You can take photos, record videos, and do much more through the app.
Remember, the live view feature on the app may have a slight delay, but it should still work well enough to capture great footage. That’s it! You’re all set to start shooting with your GoPro Hero 8 Black and iPhone.
