QuestionI see conflicting comments regarding whether or not the remote will work for videos on iPhones. Will the remote work when using an app to shoot a video like for Facebook Live or Tic Tok, etc. on an iPhone and/or iPad?

- Answer Returned the Joby remote shutter release to Best Buy because the remote will not stay linked to my iPhone. Tried multiple times to link it to Bluetooth. Even replaced the battery in the Joby remote shutter release. No success. Very disappointed!!!!!!

QuestionThe Joby shutter works on regular camera mode but does not do pictures or videos on TikTok it only controls the volume …why
Asked 2 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Tiktok does not allow the smartphone volume buttons to function as shutters, so unfortunately bluetooth remotes are not able to start/stop recording inside their app. In other apps, including the official camera app on iOS and Android, Impulse works normally.
