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

- 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.
Use a friend's phone as a remote with Wi-Fi Direct live preview.
