Total novice question. How do I download videos from Quik App onto my phone? I hit the download button and it says that the video is downloaded, but then it does not appear on my phone's videos.
 
Check the media library in Quik, I don't think it downloads directly to your phone's built in library.

I see it there, but what I ultimately want is to be able to use Dive+. My understanding is that I have to first download a video to my phone, that I cannot move it directly from Quik to Dive+. Is that correct?

You probably have to export from Quik's media library to your gallery/Camera roll.

I only use Quik to update my cameras and change settings.

To export videos from Quik (at least on Android)
  1. Select the video(s) that you want to export by long pressing them in the media tab in Quik.
  2. Tap the forward arrow in the upper right corner of the screen.
  3. Tap "Save to phone"
The video files will be saved under DCIM/GoPro-Exports.
 
It's annoying to download and then export to your phone. Even more annoying if you have memory constrictions, as you essentially download it twice.
 
Hello

You need Quik only if you want to download your videos or photos via WiFi. If you use an usb-cable you can download everything directly onto your device. Reading the manual might help :wink:
