GUIDE
Getting Started
1. Allow permissions
Follow the app’s permission prompts. Allow location access for speed and route tracking, and Bluetooth access for camera discovery. If access was denied, review mOmentiOn’s permissions in system Settings.
Android: the setup includes location and nearby-device permissions, overlay access for the floating button, and an optional storage folder choice. Follow the prompts for your Android version; overlay access is needed only to show the button over other apps.
iOS: allow location access when requested; the app initially asks for access while in use. Route files are stored inside the app, so there is no Android-style storage folder selection. The app-switch button opens a selected map app rather than a floating overlay.
2. Check GPS reception
While stationary with a clear view of the sky, make sure GPS monitoring is on using the top-right GPS button. Check the GPS indicator and live log for a received location. A speed value of zero alone does not confirm GPS reception.
3. Connect your camera
Turn the camera on and select its brand in Settings. Insta360 uses camera Wi-Fi with Bluetooth setup; DJI uses Bluetooth control. Tap Connect and approve prompts on the phone or camera. Wait for the main button to turn green and for the connection log before testing recording.
4. Test manual recording
While stationary, tap the main button and follow any countdown or usage prompt. Confirm the red REC state and that the camera is recording. Tap again to stop and check that the camera saves the clip. If X is shown, stop the recording on the camera itself.
5. Set automatic recording
In Settings, choose start and stop speeds and their hold times. Keep the stop speed below the start speed. Automatic recording needs GPS monitoring and a ready camera connection; it starts or stops when the configured speed conditions persist for the hold time. Manual recording is not stopped by the automatic stop speed.
6. Finish and review
After riding, stop safely before using the phone. Replay, compare or share from Saved rides, and check Saved logs if something went wrong. Use the red Quit button to finish monitoring and camera connections. Recording started on the camera itself must be stopped on the camera.
7. Camera Compatibility
This table distinguishes device connection verification, manufacturer documentation and app implementation documentation. Connection verification does not certify every function or firmware version.
| Model | Control method | Evidence and verification |
|---|---|---|
| Insta360 ONE X2 | Wi-Fi · HTTP/OSC | Device connection verification completed |
| Insta360 X3 | Wi-Fi · HTTP/OSC | Confirmed in official OSC documentation |
| Insta360 X4 | Wi-Fi · HTTP/OSC | Confirmed in official OSC documentation |
| Insta360 X4 Air | Wi-Fi · HTTP/OSC | Confirmed in official OSC documentation |
| Insta360 X5 | Wi-Fi · HTTP/OSC | Device connection verification completed |
| Insta360 X6 | Wi-Fi connection · iOS SDK support | Official Wi-Fi and iOS SDK support; OSC control and app compatibility remain unverified |
| DJI Osmo 360 | Bluetooth control | Confirmed in app implementation documentation: model identification and shared Bluetooth control on iOS and Android |
| DJI Osmo Action 4 | Bluetooth control | Confirmed in app implementation documentation: model identification and shared Bluetooth control on iOS and Android |
| DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro | Bluetooth control | Confirmed in app implementation documentation: model identification and shared Bluetooth control on iOS and Android |
| DJI Osmo Action 6 | Bluetooth control | Confirmed in app implementation documentation: model identification and shared Bluetooth control on iOS and Android |
Insta360 Bluetooth auto-discovery in the current app selects X5 devices. The X2 connection confirmation does not establish automatic discovery for other models; discovery for X2/X3/X4/X4 Air/X6 still needs review.

8. Before You Ride
Configure and test while stationary. Do not operate your phone while riding. GPS reception and camera connection affect automatic recording.
