Q1 What mobile app can be used with X3?

The Insta360 app.


Q2 Which phones or tablets is X3 compatible with?

The Insta360 app is an advanced, AI-powered editing suite and as such requires a certain level of processing power to run smoothly. It is therefore recommended to only use mobile devices that meet the following requirements:

Device Type Operating System Chip Compatible Devices
Android Mobile Devices Android 10.0 or above, or HarmonyOS 2.0.0 or above Devices with Kirin 990 chips and above Including Huawei Mate 30, P40, and newer models
Devices with Snapdragon 855 chips and above Including Samsung Galaxy S10, Xiaomi Mi 9, and newer models

iOS Mobile Devices iOS version 13.0 or above Devices with A12 chips or above Including iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16 Pro Max, iPad Air (2020), iPad Pro and newer iPad models.

Note: The Quick edit feature is only compatible with iPhone 8 or above models (A11 or above chips); iPads with M1 chips; and Android devices with Kirin 990 and above chips (e.g. Huawei Mate 30 and above), Snapdragon 855 and above chips (e.g. Google Pixel 4/Xiaomi Mi 9 and above), or Exynos 990 and above chips (e.g. Samsung Galaxy S20 and above).


Q3 If the phone or tablet does not meet the compatibility requirements, is it impossible to use the X3?

X3 supports multiple control shooting methods, so even if your phone or tablet does not meet the performance requirements, as long as your phone or tablet can install the Insta360 app to activate the camera, it does not affect your ability to shoot content with X3.
If you have problems with editing or exporting using the mobile app due to performance issues, you can use the desktop software Studio to edit, see our tutorial for details.
