[Q] Remote camera app that works on S4? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know of a camera remote control app that works on the S4? (I mean an app that can act as a remote control and remote viewfinder on another phone).
I've tried:
- Camera Remote (by BusyWWW) - I couldn't work out how to pair with another phone
- Remote Camera (by Emparador) - this seemed to work, but broke the camera app on the S4
- Remote Shot (by a Far East developer) - this wouldn't preview the viewfinder on the other phone.
Any other ideas??

Samsung Smart View Problem

I have watch on set up and it works perfectly. I also have samsung smart view set up and it also works fine at cloning tv. My problem is in samsung smart view I get a message that universal remote control has not been configured so app can only be used to duplicate tv view. I'm pretty sure the remote control with smart view used to work. Any suggestions to get it working again? Watch on is all set up and works fine. I assume that is what is meant by setting up universal remote control.

Make a custom remote and just have the phone learn the codes from the DSLR's remote.
what about us who don't have remote at all ?

[Q] Experienced App Developers: A Question for you

Hi,
any experienced Developers out there with RTSP or other Streaming Protocol knowledge?
Hoping to get some insight in this field.
I am currently in the process of having an App developed, that will connect to the WiFi network of a camera, which has a WiFi module built in.
You could say it is similar to GoPro's App, as it includes functions such as remote controlling the camera (record/stop), switching between 4 recording modes, as well as reviewing the footage of the camera directly on the phone through the App.
On top of that, the App live-streams while the camera is recording, using RTSP.
How hard is it to maintain the App to constantly be compatible with the latest Android version? Are there fundamental parts of the code that would need to be changed from Android 4.3 to 4.4.2 for example?

Remote Shutter for Wear OS

Hi All,
TL,DR: I'm looking for a remote shutter for any cam on any android phone similar to the one on Mi Bands. No the remote cameras with companion apps that we can find in play store.
I've just got a brand new TicWatch E3. So far the watch is great, everything what I've expected. There's only 1 gap I don't know how to cover.
I had a Xiaomi MiBand 5 before and is has a great feature, a remote shutter you can use with ANY opened cam on you phone, you just open the camera on your phone, tap the shutter on the band and the pic was taken.
I know that Google Camera does that from wear OS but for Pixel Phones only (it does not work on my Redmi Note 8 Pro with Pixel Experience rom and gcam mod) but I couldn't find anything similar to do it with any phone and camera as the MiBand does. Al I have found are remote cams apps that use their own companion cam app in the phone, but for those, the picture quality is no good at all.
Does anyone has an idea or recommendation to achieve this from wear os?
im looking for the same the only thing i could find that can do it was https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kemasdimas.wristcamera&hl=en&gl=US which isnt really what i want as it shows the camera screen on the phone.
If anyone else has any other suggestions please let me know.
I have done it using the following apps:
Tasker (to run the 'Take Photo' action
Bubble Cloud to trigger the above
There is a world of usefulness to be had using those two Apps and Android phone / Wear OS
Try Camera One. Though you have to install the companion app, it only uses it for communication with the watch. You dont even have to have it open. Once you launch the watch app, it automatically uses the camera, even if the phone is off. To get full features though, i think its about $4.

Interesting, could you share how to do this and what parameters have you used? Thanks

Install Tasker
Create Task that uses 'Take Photo' (you can find by typing in search box when creating the task) you can choose from Front / Back camera in the settings of this 'Take Photo' Action
Install Bubble Cloud from link above
Ensure installed on both watch & phone
Use the 'Wear Cloud Editor' section to create a watch screen
To launch the Task you created above, click the '+' button in 'Wear Cloud Editor' and select option to 'Add Tasker bubble (icon looks like a cog) and choose the 'Take Photo' (or whatever you named it) task, you can also choose icon / colour / transparency here
Add the screen created above to a watch tile (think it's called 'Favourites Cloud' or similar from memory?
Swipe to tile and press on the icon you chose to launch the task.
Hope make sense?
Looking for something similar, except that I need to trigger my GoPro Hero 8 shutter from my Galaxy Watch 4, ideally directly (i.e. not via phone), and ideally using BTLE not WiFi. Any suggestions?
(There's this, but that's out of my price range for a mere shutter control app.)
