An Android prototype for camera media import and creator delivery

SoFlow built an Android prototype that lists GoPro media over local HTTP, imports full-quality files into MediaStore, and supports sharing, backup ZIP export, activity logs, and cleanup tools.

An Android prototype for camera media import and creator delivery

This is a prototype proof card rather than a production app page. It mirrors the field media workflow direction on Android using Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, and GoPro HTTP endpoints.
Challenge

The challenge behind the build

Android creator delivery has different platform APIs than iOS, but the field workflow still needs reliable camera listing, full-quality import, local storage, and share/export behavior.

Goal

The implementation goal

SoFlow built a Kotlin and Jetpack Compose prototype with a camera-agnostic architecture and a HERO13 Black HTTP implementation.

Result

SoFlow built an Android prototype that lists GoPro media over local HTTP, imports full-quality files into MediaStore, and supports sharing, backup ZIP export, activity...

The prototype gives SoFlow a native Android proof point for field media tools, while remaining clearly labeled as not production-complete.

The brief was to explore Android parity for the Media Desk field workflow: camera connection, media import, client sharing, and backup export.

The Android project is a prototype and intentionally avoids BLE in v1. It expects the device to be connected to camera Wi-Fi before import.

The app reads GoPro media from /gopro/media/list, downloads full-quality files from /videos/DCIM paths, saves photos and videos into MediaStore folders, and supports share and ZIP export workflows.

  • Configurable camera base URL
  • GoPro media list support
  • Full-quality file downloads
  • MediaStore import to Pictures and Movies
  • Client share intents
  • Backup ZIP export, activity log, storage, and cleanup tools

  • README confirms Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, GoPro HTTP listing, full-quality download, MediaStore import, share intents, and ZIP export

Can this be adapted for another business?

Yes, if the same type of workflow, integration, or decision logic exists. The implementation should be scoped around the buyer's systems and public-safety needs.

Why put this in Webflow if external code is involved?

Webflow is the public storytelling and CMS layer. External code should stay in the app, Worker, or integration layer where it can be versioned, secured, and tested.

What is needed before publishing?

Capture Android screenshots and clarify relation to Media Sync Desk before publishing.

This work proves that SoFlow can explore platform-specific mobile workflows across iOS and Android without forcing both into the same architecture too early.

Before

The iOS workflow needed an Android counterpart for camera import and client-delivery exploration.

After

The Android prototype proved the basic GoPro HTTP and MediaStore import path for future parity work.

Camera Wi-Fi import, MediaStore writes, share intents, and ZIP export require native Android code.
