How do I connect the bluetooth remote?

tagupCam supports using a Bluetooth remote control to 'Start/Stop' recording and 'End at Bat':

Mobile phones recognize the remote as a bluetooth keyboard, and often will not allow you to type when turned on.  It is important to follow these steps so that the remote will connect and work.  

Here is a link to the recommended remote on Amazon

Common Issues/Tips

If the remote has previously been connected to another phone, make sure you 'forget device' on that phone. 

Starting or stopping seems delayed.  This is usually a sign that you need a new battery.  

Stay within 10 feet of phone.  Occasionally view phone to ensure record button is flashing, and you see the green check mark after 'End at Bat'
