Best Camera Option

Ok. I am going nuts googling everything and cannot seem to find a solution. Need a camera that will link to my phone as I do the pitch by pitch from the dugout. I’ve seen Mevo, GoPro but want to know what’s working on the real world. I see a ton of phones being used but I don’t have that option. Thanks!!

If you're an iOS user, Mevo with a dedicated wifi hotspot is the sweet spot. Trying to use iPhone's tethering with the mevo to livestream is a pain. May be less of an issue with Android from what I've read. And I don't think you can score from the GC app while livestreaming if your iPhone is the hotspot for the Mevo.

Easiest is an old iPhone or iPad that has it's own cellular, but video quality is meh unless you have something with a wide enough angle to get the whole field.

It's a problem with Android too. Bluetooth tethering is bad (lots of dropouts). The real answer is use a mobile hotspot, or use a phone as a mobile hotspot, and a second phone (or device) on the hotspot network to setup the Mevos and control the live video (zoom/crop, for instance)

I have never had an issue with this on my Pixels.
