While GoPro is a mainstay of YouTube, Facebook and Instagram with its own channel, most videos submitted by users on these channels come from smartphones, because of the instant upload features. The app stands to finally put GoPro into social media in a way it hasn't been because of the time and effort it took users to import clips. In an interview with USA TODAY, Woodman says older models couldn't be updated because they had slower Wi-Fi upload speeds. Owners of the Hero4, and earlier editions will still have to import their footage the old-fashioned way. The feature only works with the latest camera, the Hero5 or Hero 5 Session, introduced last fall. Before you run to the Apple or Google app stores to download the free apps, a quick caveat.
