GoPro HERO11 Black User Manual Transferring Your Media

CREATING A VIDEO STORY

You can set up your GoPro to automatically send videos and photos to your phone. The GoPro Quik app will use them to create a fully edited video story complete with music and effects.

1. Connect your camera to the GoPro Quik app. For details, see (<>)Connecting to the GoPro Quik App (page 92).

2. Swipe down on the app’s home screen. Shots from your most recent session will be copied to your phone and transformed into a fully edited video.

3. Tap your video to view it.

4. Make any edits you’d like.

5. Save the story or share it with your friends, family, and followers.

Finding the Best Shots

Be sure to mark your best shots with HiLight Tags. The GoPro Quik app looks for tags when it creates videos. This helps ensure that favorite moments are included in your stories.

Your GoPro also knows when you face the camera, smile, and more. It automatically tags these shots with data so the app can handpick them for your videos.

To learn more, see Adding HiLight Tags.

TRANSFERRING TO YOUR PHONE WITH A WIRED CONNECTION

Use a wired connection to transfer photos and videos from your GoPro to your phone faster and more reliably.

1. Use the appropriate cable/adapter (not included) to connect your GoPro to your phone.

2. Start the GoPro Quik app on your phone and follow the on-screen instructions.

TRANSFERRING TO A COMPUTER

Copy your media from your SD card to a computer for playback and editing.

1. Remove the SD card from your camera.

2. Insert the card into an SD card reader or adapter.

PRO TIP: Use your cloud media to create video stories with the GoPro Quik app. Simply choose Cloud Media when you start a new story.

AUTO CLEAR

Your camera can be set to automatically delete all of the media from your camera's SD card once it has been safely uploaded to the cloud. This ensures that there's room on your SD card for new photos and videos the next time you use your GoPro.

Auto Upload will also recognize any new photos and videos on your SD card the next time your camera is plugged in for cloud backup. Only the new files will be saved to the cloud and deleted from your SD card.

1. Swipe down on the rear screen to access the Dashboard.

2. Tap Preferences > Auto Upload > Auto Clear.

Heads Up: If you have not turned on Auto Clear in Preferences, your GoPro will ask if you want to clear the media from your SD card after the cloud upload is complete.
