Just This Feature of The App is a Good Reason to Buy an Apple Watch

GoPro released a new app for the Apple Watch. The app lets you remote your GoPro from the wrist. It is very useful if you most of GoPro user doing dangerous stuff while recording and it is hard to check your phone every time.

With the app, you can hit record, stop and preview what camera records at that moment. You can also add highlight tags that will help you to find an important scene quicker during editing. The watch app doesn’t do everything that the iPhone app does buy still very useful. It could be cool to see what the camera is recording from your phone but not bad for now. Maybe in future, the watch app can do more. The Apple Watch app can work with Hero3 model or newer, should be Wi-Fi equipped and preview option is not available on the Hero3.

This new features, what should Apple and the other smartwatch companies should do, if they want to sell more smartwatches; They need to create demand for the watches. I think every GoPro users especially the ones who record stuff when they are doing crazy cool things, will buy a SmartWatch for using the features of this app.
