“Underwater usability I see that this smart remote is waterproof up to 32' and has a range of 600'. Just wondering how the remote's range is affected underwater, since I snorkel and use my GoPro for water activities. I seen a customer review previously stating that it was a problem.”

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The range is limited due to interference related to the water naturally blocking the signal from the remote to the camera. The farther away the signal has to travel underwater, the more difficult it is for the signal to connect. The water can actually bend the wave pattern signal from remote to camera.
