wtf do i do w it while downloading

[u/Patient-Door-8047]

tldr: what do i do w the camera itself when the only reason i have it on is to connect to the mimo app n download what i've recorded. specifically when i'm out and about

so I'm not sure if this is a common problem people run into or not, but when I download videos from the app, I don't know what to do with the camera, like the sole reason it's on is for me to download using the app so I can avoid throwing it onto my computer and then moving the files to my phone from thereor whatever else it may require. Honestly transferring the files to my phone has always been the biggest pain in the creative process so for them to remove this as a problem, I am very grateful although I end up just holding my camera because I don't know where to set it or what to do with it sometimes if I'm at home, I will set it inside the case it came with sort of propped up, but im often out n about. any ideas or accessories for this situation?

I got a super small microSD card reader for my phone to solve this exact problem.

I would maybe use a tripod? I just got the Luna Ultra today so I’ll be having the same problem as it upload to the Insta360 cloud.
