FAQ
General
Can I use the DJI OM 7 Series Magnetic Phone Clamp and the DJI OM Multifunctional Module with Osmo Mobile 8P?
Yes.
1. Osmo Mobile 8P can be used with the DJI OM 7 Series Magnetic Phone Clamp.
2. Osmo Mobile 8P can be used with the DJI OM Multifunctional Module. However, please note that only the DJI OM Multifunctional Module 2 supports video transmission to Osmo FrameTap. If you use the first-generation module, you won't be able to view its feed on the remote screen.

How do I update the firmware for my Osmo Mobile 8P?
The DJI Mimo app will automatically notify you when new firmware is available. Just follow the prompts to complete the update. During the process, please ensure Osmo FrameTap stays attached to the gimbal, keep the Mimo app running in the foreground, and do not disconnect your phone's Wi-Fi.
What improvements does Osmo Mobile 8P offer compared with Osmo Mobile 8?
Osmo Mobile 8P has been upgraded in several areas, including the following:
1. New Osmo FrameTap. This detachable touchscreen remote controller allows you to:
a. Adjust gimbal parameters and switch shooting modes.
b. Control the Multifunctional Module. Swipe right to view the live feed from the Multifunctional Module. Press the joystick once or draw a box on the screen to instantly lock onto your subject.
c. Control the gimbal from up to 10 meters away to take photos, record video, switch between portrait/landscape, and fine-tune your composition.
d. Android phone users can mirror their phone screen to the Osmo FrameTap remote directly. iPhone* users can mirror their phone screen to the remote via the DJI Mimo app.
2. Supported by the new DJI OM Multifunctional Module 2 (not included in the Standard combo and is sold separately), the device can now track vehicles and any general object**.
3. The new DJI OM Magnetic Phone Clamp 5 is smaller, lighter, and more secure. It offers wider compatibility and features optimized rubber padding to ensure it covers less of your phone screen.
4. The tripod design has been optimized with three legs that can be spread out independently, ensuring a steadier setup on flat surfaces.
* Please visit the official DJI website for the full smartphone compatibility list
** Object Tracking via the Multifunctional Module 2 (excluding people/animals/vehicles): Requires manual box selection. Effective range varies based on object size. The object must have clear outlines, high contrast against the background, and occupy more than 10% of the frame.

3. Press and hold both the shutter and the joystick for two seconds to forget the connected device.
What is the magnetic force?
The magnetic force of Osmo Mobile 8P is approximately 40 Newtons, which is strong enough to hold an object equivalent to the weight of two 2-liter soda bottles. This ensures a secure attachment for smartphones.
Will the magnetic feature interfere with or affect my smartphone or other items?
Osmo Mobile 8P uses a special closed-loop magnetic design that does not affect the performance of the attached smartphone. However, some smartphones may prompt for calibration due to the compass orientation after mounting. Simply follow the on-screen instructions on your smartphone for calibration to resume normal use.
The magnetic design may influence other magnetic-sensitive products. Do not place Osmo Mobile 8P near bank cards, pacemakers, RAM chips, hard drives, and similar items.

When my smartphone is mounted on the gimbal and using a wide-angle camera, will the gimbal appear in the camera view? If so, what should I do?
Due to the layout of wide-angle lenses and/or irregular smartphone sizes, some users may see the gimbal in their camera view when using a wide-angle camera.
You can try the following: Adjust the position of the magnetic phone clamp by moving it away from the camera until the gimbal is not visible in the camera view.
You can try the following: Adjust the position of the magnetic phone clamp by moving it away from the camera until the gimbal is not visible in the camera view.
What should I do if the camera view is tilted after the gimbal is powered on?
1. Check if the magnetic phone clamp is correctly aligned with the gimbal's magnetic attachment area.
2. Check if the magnetic phone clamp is attached approximately to the middle of the smartphone.

DockKit Tracking
What is Apple DockKit?
Apple DockKit is a subject-tracking technology developed by Apple. Osmo Mobile 8P supports DockKit, allowing iOS users to leverage this feature without additional apps or accessories. This enables intelligent subject tracking in the native iPhone camera app and in third-party iOS apps supporting DockKit, such as Facebook, YouTube, and Blackmagic Camera.
Which iPhone models are compatible with Apple DockKit on this gimbal?
To use DockKit's native tracking features, you need a compatible Apple device—specifically, an iPhone 12 or later running iOS 18.5 or later, except iPhone SE (3rd generation) and iPhone 16e. For the best experience and latest features, we recommend updating to the newest version of iOS.
What should I do if I can't pair with Apple DockKit?
1. Make sure DockKit native tracking is ready:
Check that your phone has a stable network connection, and that both NFC and Bluetooth are turned on.
Confirm that your iPhone is an iPhone 12 or later, running iOS 18.5 or higher.
Ensure that the gimbal is not connected to another phone.
2. Restart the gimbal, then try pairing again using NFC.
3. If pairing still fails, reset the gimbal's Bluetooth and try NFC pairing again.

2. Restart the gimbal, then try pairing again using NFC.
3. If pairing still fails, reset the gimbal's Bluetooth and try NFC pairing again.
What should I do if Apple DockKit tracking won't activate?
1. Check the NFC connection between your iPhone and Osmo Mobile 8P:
Go to the Bluetooth settings, find the "OM8P-XXXXXX-Dock" device, and make sure it's successfully paired with your iPhone.
2. Check if DockKit native tracking is ready:
Confirm that your iPhone is an iPhone 12 or later, running iOS 18.5 or higher.
Ensure that the gimbal is not connected to another phone.
Check if the gimbal performs a nodding motion when your phone is mounted.
Check if the gimbal's function status indicator remains solid green or flashes green.
Ensure the gimbal is not mounted with a Multifunctional Module.
3. Ensure the app you're using supports DockKit native tracking (only apps related to camera functionality are supported).

How does Apple DockKit select a subject to track?
1. If no head is visible, the gimbal will first detect a body, then tilt the camera upward to find and track the head.
2. If a person's head is blocked, the gimbal will turn to track other visible people.
3. If multiple people are detected, the gimbal will adjust the angle and composition to include as many people as possible.
4. When tracking a single person, if they turn their head or move, the gimbal will adjust to maintain the best framing.
5. When switching between the front and rear cameras, the gimbal will automatically rotate 180° to quickly reposition and continue tracking.
6. If the tracked subject is lost, the gimbal will immediately start tracking a new person who appears in the frame. (It cannot lock onto or return to the previous subject.)

After the first connection, do I need to relink Apple DockKit for future use?
Once you've connected for the first time, simply turn on Bluetooth and mount your phone on the gimbal. DockKit will connect automatically, and you won't need to use NFC pairing again.
If it does not connect automatically after a while, follow the initial setup steps to relink.
