> My phone/tablet needs to use it's wifi connection to connect to and control the Osmo+ camera/gimbal.
> Osmo can't connect to any other network nor can the Phone/tablet connect to another network.
My Osmo is a Mobile, and I'm not sure that what I'm saying will work in an Osmo+ or Osmo Plus.
Maybe an Osmo+ or Plus use wifi to connect the phone with that cam. I don't know.
In a Mobile (and I think in other Osmos too) your phone/tablet connect with your Osmo by bluetooth, not by wifi. They are 2 different connections. And wifi remains free to make a connection with another device.
> Are you saying this app will essentially share that Osmo wifi connection (via it's IP address) with another device?
An Osmo Mobile (and I think other Osmos too) doesn't have its own IP address because it doesn't have wifi connection.
> If so what is the exact process to connect?
There's a function in your phone named -more or less- "Network sharing and Wi-Fi access point" (translating from my catalan phone. In english can be a bit different)
If you activate this in your main phone, you will have:
- the connection by bluetooth with your Osmo (Mobile, at least)
- the Internet connection with your data provider
- and now a wifi tethering with your tablet (or a laptop, or a second phone). This second device will now connect to the Internet trought your first phone, and both will be in the same network (that is what we wanted).
Then, in the tablet/laptop open the web screenmirrorapp.com and you'll get a QR code.
Then in the phone, open the app and scan the QR
That's all: you will see the screen phone on the browser your tablet/laptop
It's all explained on play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.screenmirrorapp
> I looked for the app you're talking about and the only things I could find with that name were used via a computer, not another Android device. Can you give me another clue? Developer name?
just click on play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.screenmirrorapp
The name is Screen Mirror, developed by Smart Dato vGmbH. It must be this app, not another with the same name, because others need a close router.
