Connect the camera: Bluetooth pairing and camera Wi-Fi (iOS and Android)

Pathset connects to your camera directly via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, on iOS and Android, without the manufacturer's app.

How to connect:

  1. Switch on the camera and keep it within range.
  2. In Pathset, tap "Connect" at the bottom. Pathset finds the camera via Bluetooth; the Insta360 Luna Ultra announces itself with the end of its serial number. If several cameras are ready, Pathset shows a selection sheet.
  3. The first time: confirm pairing on the camera display (on the Osmo models via the PIN shown) and then allow joining the camera's Wi-Fi network:
    • iOS: confirm the Bluetooth prompt and the one-time system prompt to join the Wi-Fi network.
    • Android: on first launch, allow the "Nearby devices" (Bluetooth) permission and confirm the "Connect to device" system dialog promptly.
Pathset home screen with six path tiles, the note "Not connected" and the bottom bar with the Connect, New, Start, Media and Arrange buttons.
The home screen before connecting: the Connect button at the bottom left.
iOS dialog "Allow 'Pathset' to find Bluetooth devices?" with the buttons "Don't Allow" and "Allow".
First iOS prompt: Bluetooth. This is how Pathset finds the camera.
iOS dialog "Allow 'Pathset' to find devices on local networks?", below it the discovered camera Wi-Fi.
Second iOS prompt: Local Network. Control runs over the camera's Wi-Fi.
iOS prompt "'Pathset' Wants to Join Wi-Fi Network 'OsmoPocket4P-5F63'?" with the buttons "Cancel" and "Join".
The first time you connect: confirm joining the camera's Wi-Fi.

The status bar then shows the camera type: Pathset is connected and ready.

Note: The camera's Wi-Fi network has no internet access. iOS asks once when joining; Android shows no Wi-Fi icon for the camera network. Both are normal. Pathset does not store the network permanently.

While in use: The camera is controlled over Wi-Fi. Keep Pathset open (in the foreground) and make sure the connection is good and stable: camera within range, don't switch to another Wi-Fi network. If the app goes into the background or the Wi-Fi drops, control pauses.

If it doesn't work: switch the camera off and on again, then tap "Connect" again. If the search finds nothing, Pathset automatically searches a second time after 5 seconds; after a hard app termination the camera needs a few seconds until it is visible again. Bluetooth must be on, plus the "Local Network" permission (iOS: Settings › Pathset) or "Nearby devices" (Android: Settings › Apps › Pathset).
