Flexible Control From Anywhere: Remotely Operating the Insta360 One RS

A key benefit of modern cameras like the Insta360 One RS is the ability to control shooting remotely. This allows far more flexibility than being stuck behind the camera. Convenient remote control is possible with the One RS via the smartphone app or a Bluetooth remote.

Remote Control With App

The Insta360 app for iOS and Android enables full wireless camera control from your phone or tablet via WiFi or Bluetooth. You can:

  • Monitor a live preview
  • Start/stop recording
  • Adjust camera settings
  • Tweak shooting modes
  • Switch lenses
  • Control exposure
  • Trigger timelapse
  • And more!

The range is approximately 33 feet, giving you freedom to frame shots away from the camera. Perfect for selfies, group shots, and unique angles.

Remote Control With Bluetooth Remote

For small cameras, Insta360 also offers a compact Bluetooth remote. It attaches to a keychain for quick access and has large easy-press buttons. Use it to start/stop recording and mark key moments on the One RS from up to 16 feet away.

Convenient wireless control opens up creative possibilities that are difficult when stuck as the sole camera operator. Control the robust Insta360 One RS from your smartphone or the optional Bluetooth remote to capture your vision from new perspectives.

Conclusion

The Insta360 One RS gives you flexible remote control options to match your shooting style thanks to its wireless connectivity. Whether you prefer comprehensive control from your smartphone's screen or quick physical buttons on a dedicated Bluetooth remote, the possibilities are endless when you can operate the camera remotely. No matter how you connect, easy wireless control adds convenience and creativity to your reality captures with the Insta360 One RS.
