Godox A1 Mobile Flash Finally Gets Android App Support

Godox had introduced a more professional imaging solution, called Godox A1 mobile flash fro the smartphones back in August last year. At the time of launch, only the iOS devices were supported to work with this mobile flash. It’s almost a year before Godox launches its Android app for the A1.

The device is equipped with an LED strip and is a trigger for the 2.4GHz operation to synchronize your phone’s camera with other Godox light devices via TTL / M / Multi.

A1 is relatively lightweight and 80x65x23mm size easily fit to move and weighing only 110g. A1 is equipped with a built-in battery is quite good when it can flash about 700 times before charging. At the bottom of the A1 is a standard screwdriver.

The Godox A1 was included with the iOS app, Godox Photo, which allows users to use the flash as a removable flash, as well as a trigger to combine multiple lights.
