PairShot: Remote Camera

PairShot is a remote camera app that connects an Android camera phone to another controller device, using either a browser or the PairShot app.

Turn one Android into the camera, and control photos and video from another device while watching a live preview.

Great for

- Group photos where you want to be in the frame too

- Controlling a phone on a tripod from across the room

- Checking your composition up close for product shots or form checks

- Using a friend's phone as the remote so everyone can be in the photo

What makes PairShot different

- High-quality preview over Wi-Fi Direct, so you can frame your shot while shooting remotely

- Works entirely locally — no internet connection required

- No ads. Choose a one-time Pro upgrade only when you need it

- Use a browser on the controller device, or choose the PairShot app when the controller is Android

What's free

- Unlimited connections and photo capture

- Video recording up to 1 minute per clip

- Video recording with audio (uses the microphone; off by default until you turn it on)

What Pro adds

- Video recording longer than 1 minute

- Automatic transfer of captured photos to the controller device

- Exposure compensation and tap focus

PairShot isn't just about triggering the shutter remotely —

it's about framing your shot while watching a live preview in your hand.

Two phones you already own deliver an experience a simple Bluetooth remote can't.
