CONTROLLING YOUR GOPRO WITH
YOUR VOICE
You can control your HERO5 Session with your voice using a set of specific
commands (see list below).
Note: Voice Control performance may be impacted by distance, wind, and noisy
conditions. Keep the product clean and clear of debris.

Voice Control works best in close proximity to your GoPro.
Note: When you first turn on your camera, your GoPro allows you to select a voice
control language. You can change your voice control language later through the
Capture app.

2. Press the Menu button repeatedly to move to Voice Control, then
press the Shutter button [ ] to select it.

LIST OF VOICE COMMANDS
Two types of commands are available with Voice Control:
• Action commands let you immediately capture video or photos. For
example, if you just stopped recording video, you can say the command
to take a photo or begin capturing time lapse—without having to first
change the mode.
• Mode commands are useful if you want to quickly select a mode and
then use the Shutter button to capture.
Your camera does not need to be in a specific mode to capture video or
photos. You can use the action commands from any mode. Your camera
captures video or photos based on the settings you previously selected.
