GoPro launches “Quik app“, the replacement of its existing GoPro App on Google Play and App Store. Quik app is available for iOS and Android and supports photos & videos taken from any smartphone or camera, including GoPros and DSLRs. Quik also features a suite of photo editing tools in case if you prefer to edit your photos & videos.
The GoPro Quik video editor is free to download and use on a trial basis. Those who want to unlock the app’s full capabilities can subscribe for ₹499/year or ₹99/month. This will include unlimited cloud backup of your imported photos & videos at their original quality when the backup feature is released later this year.

The app is already live in the Google Play and App Store. New users can directly download the app from the respective app stores, and the existing GoPro app users will see their app update upon installation. Existing users’ photos and videos will transfer from the old GoPro app to the new Quik app upon install, and any cloud-based footage will remain accessible.
To celebrate Quik’s launch, GoPro is also running the “Quik Awards Challenge” to award the best Quik edits. To participate, submit your best edit made with the Quik app to GoPro.com/Awards.
Quik makes it simple and fun to finally make sense of the vast number of photos and videos we all have on our phones. You don’t even have to open the Quik app to organize your images, simply share your favorite shots directly to Quik from your camera roll, text threads, or wherever your best shots maybe. We named it Quik because that’s what it is!”, said GoPro founder and CEO, Nicholas Woodman.
