As I'm sure everyone is familiar with the Mimo app you must use to connect the Osmo Action to a device is absolute garbage. It requires GPS, WiFi, AND Bluetooth to be active to do anything. This in turn renders whatever device you're using a brick untilyou disconnect the Osmo. You can use data thus meaning you can't immediately share anything you pull.
Furthermore let's talk about privacy: Why does the app require GPS when it is being used for absolutely nothing? On top of this it prevents you from using it with a device that doesn't have GPS which is stilll fairly common in tablets.
Why does it require both Bluetooth and wifi? I connect Mt gopro to my phone using wifi only and transfer via Bluetooth without any issue. Why has DJI elected to make a simple camera require every function on your phone that makes it a phone to use a camera?
And I know this is about the app. But let's not forget that DJI ruined the rock steady by thinking they knew what was best when a simple rock steady inte sity setting would have been all we needed because a couple people complained about a screen you don't use on an action camera being slightly laggy. |
