The A1 is the first device to bring smartphone APP remote control to the Godox 2,4GHz X System flash family.

Though the A1 also provides 3 major functions in the one unit –

A Smartphone APP based remote control of the Godox 2.4GHz flash system.

A Smartphone transmitter, using the phone as camera, with the Godox 2.4GHz flash system.

A Smartphone flash unit, for on-camera (phone), or off-camera slave flash use.

And when the smartphone is used as the camera, the A1 also provides an auto flash exposure mode, as well as the option of manual power settings.

The auto metering is made possible by a small light sensor built into the front of the A1 (which can be attached to the phone via a supplied stick on magnet).

SMARTPHONE REMOTE CONTROL

For remote control of the Godox 2.4GHz flash system via smartphone APP, the A1 acts as a bridge between the 2 systems.

The A1 uses a Bluetooth 4.0 connection to communicate with the smartphone or tablet, and then converts and relays the signal on to the Godox slave flash units via Godox’s own 2.4GHz X-System radio protocol.

Bluetooth range between the smartphone and A1 is up to 50 meters, and from the A1 to the Godox slave flashes provides up to another 80 meters of range.

A Godox radio transmitter like the XPro or X1 is still used on the camera hotshoe to actually fire the flashes, though they are set to APP mode so that they will only fire the flashes, and not send any power level setting etc.

The smartphone or tablet then controls all of those slave flash settings remotely.
