CREATING A QUIKSTORY

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

  1. Connect your camera to the GoPro app. For details, see Connecting to the GoPro App.

  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 QuikStory.

  3. Tap your QuikStory to view it. If you don’t have the Quik app, you’ll be prompted to install it.

  4. Make any edits you’d like in the Quik app.

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

Finding the Best Shots

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

HERO7 Black also knows when you face the camera, smile, and more. It automatically tags these shots with data so QuikStories can handpick them for your videos.

To learn more, see Adding HiLight Tags.
