Should I return it to the store?
[ New ]
No owner manual...just 3 pages of safety BS in English. The app doesn’t connect because I didn’t get to complete my set up the first time I turned the camera on. All of this high tech and 58 pages of non-English bs, but you can’t provide a decent set of operating instructions? Why not print English instructions so your customers can be good with your products and be fans instead of disgruntled purchasers returning your products.

The manual can be found here https://gopro.com/help/productmanuals
Updating instructions can be found here https://gopro.com/update/hero7-black
Manually updating is the best route.
Make sure you are using a SD card from this list
https://gopro.com/help/articles/block/microSD-Card-Considerations
With a battery charged more than 50% you can run the update.
Download the manual update to your computer
Right click and extract the UPDATE folder
Using a USB/SD adapter, insert your card into your computer
Do a full format of the card
Copy the UPDATE Folder (not UPDATE.zip) to the SD card
Eject the card and place in the camera
Power on using the side Mode/Power button
Once the update is complete, go to Preferences>Reset and format the card in the camera
Again, go into Preferences>Reset and factory reset the camera.
Once done, your camera will be updated and you should be able to connect to the app without problems.
