Apple Watch wearers now have a GoPro remote control on their wrists.</p><p>
On Thursday, GoPro updated its iOS app to integrate a new app for Apple Watch, turning the Watch into a remote control for the Wi-Fi equipped GoPro cameras. You can now use the Apple Watch app to start or stop recording, adjust the settings on the GoPro, and tap to add a HiLight (basically a bookmark) to a certain section of video to make it easier to find in the editing room.</p><figure class="medium inline"><img src="(http://images.techhive.com/images/article/2015/12/viewfinder-gopro-apple-watch-app-100632830-medium.jpeg)" alt="viewfinder gopro apple watch app" width="300" height="375"/></figure>

The new Apple Watch app also acts as a remote viewfinder to frame your shots before recording, and you can add a Complication, or shortcut, on the face of your Watch to hit record and capture those easy-to-miss action shots. GoPro’s Apple Watch app was first demonstrated during Apple’s September event (http://www.macworld.com/article/2981920/wearables/apple-announcs-new-apple-watch-bands-and-finishes-and-watchos-2-ships-sept-16.html).</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3014235/consumer-electronics/apple-watch-is-now-a-remote-control-for-your-gopro-camera-and-drone.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
