Capture app (Android, Samsung) can´t connect to GoPro (Hero +)

[krsturz]

I had to connect via iOS first then my Samsung phone miraculously worked. Have you tried loading Capture app on iPad mini and connecting to that?

Try shutting down home WiFi I finally did that and was able to get it to link. Phone always wants to connect to strongest WiFi.

I managed to get my camera connected eventually. Somebody on this forum suggested the solution, I can't find him or her at the moment to say thanks.

I had to use an iOS device to do it.

With Capture App on my iPad mini, while trying to connect, I got to a page that showed the camera name.

In the top left corner there was an 'edit' button. [This 'edit' button doesn't appear using my Sony Z5 phone]

Click on the edit button and a red 'X' came up beside the camera name.

I clicked the 'X' to delete the camera from the app. 

Then I started over from the beginning and was able to create a new name for the camera and a new password.

Then I tried to connect using the Capture app on my Sony Z5 phone and it worked.  It still sometimes takes a few attempts to get connected but it works. It's only taken about 6 months of frustration to get filming again.

Good luck.

Shay.

TURN OFF THE **bleep**ING BLUETOOTH ON YOUR CELLPHONE AND PROBLEM SOLVED.

NEVER TURN ON BLUETOOTH IN CAPTURE APP. THE **bleep**TY BLUETOOTH DOES ALL THESE PROBLEMS.
