Description of Action Camera Toolbox

The Action Camera Toolbox controls action cameras from different companies, including GoPro, Ricoh, and Xiaomi. The app offers live preview, multi-camera support, and a powerful scripting language, which gives you full control over the camera settings. Now you can write your own scripts for instance for exposure/focus bracketing, time-lapse, event driven scripts, etc.
!!! Import - Read before download !!!
The app ships with a free virtual camera device which you can use for playing around with the app and test the scripting language. Real cameras are available as one-time in-app-purchases. Please take also a look at the "Model information" section on http://www.mobwheel.com/acthelp for device specific information (not all action cameras support everything!).

    Activated the Theta s in the app to get time lapse intervals less than 8 seconds. That did work however I started experiencing strange behavior with my Theta including Wi-Fi connectivity issues. Eventually I couldn't turn off the unit and had to let the battery die off. Used the Ricoh app for the Theta with no problem once I charged the camera. Returning to using this app with the Theta and the gremlins came back. I DEFINITELY DON'T RECOMMEND THIS APP FOR USE WITH THE THETA S. A true shame as it was promising. The 3 second interval worked really well while it worked
