Konrad Iturbe's open-source Osmosis app lets users download DJI Osmo footage without the Mimo app
↗
A developer reverse-engineered DJI's camera protocol to build Osmosis, a free open-source app that downloads and manages Osmo footage without the official Mimo app.
DJI's official Mimo app is closed-source and connects to cloud servers, which some users want to avoid. Osmosis provides an alternative for reviewing, trimming, and downloading footage directly, though it currently lacks polish and full hardware integration. This gives users a way to interact with DJI cameras without relying on proprietary software.

Konrad Iturbe built Osmosis by reverse-engineering the protocol DJI cameras use to communicate with the official app.
The free open-source app allows users to download, preview, and trim footage from several Osmo and Action camera models.
Osmosis currently has limitations, including slow connection times and incomplete gimbal stowing on certain devices.
