GoPro's Android app now connects to your action cam automatically

GoPro's smartphone apps have been a useful addition to its popular action cams for quite some time, and now the Android version sees a nice update. First, and most importantly, the app now automatically connects to your camera's WiFi signal on launch, nixing a visit to the settings menu as your first stop. Sharing is easier as well, as those captured stills and videos can now be beamed to Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and other social repositories directly from your mobile device. There's also an updated UI for those wielding version 4.0 or later of Google's mobile OS and the ability to have the app set the curated Photo of the Day as your wallpaper. Haven't been alerted to version 2.4 yet? Well, jump down to the source link to nab the download now.
