Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Loop Recording and when should I use it? 🔁
Loop Recording is a feature that allows the Insta360 Ace Pro to record continuously, but it only saves the most recent segment of a specified duration (e.g., the last 1, 3, or 5 minutes). This is incredibly useful for turning the Ace Pro into a dashcam or for capturing unpredictable moments without filling up your memory card. If something important happens, you stop the recording, and you'll have saved just that crucial clip. -
How can I schedule a recording with Timed Capture? ⏰
The Timed Capture feature lets you schedule the Ace Pro to turn on and start recording automatically at a specific time. You can set the desired start time and recording duration in the camera's settings. This is perfect for capturing time-lapses of sunrises or sunsets, or for recording an event when you can't be there to press the shutter button yourself. -

AI Warp is a groundbreaking creative feature that uses generative AI to transform your videos. You can apply dynamic effects and styles to your footage based on custom text prompts or preset options.

Can I take a high-quality photo while recording a video? 📸
