Insta360 telemetry overlay
for speed, GPS & pace
Insta360 cameras don't write standalone GPS into the file, so GaugeReel pairs a GPX or Garmin FIT track — from the GPS remote, a watch, a bike computer or your phone — and locks it to your X, Ace, GO or ONE R footage, rendering animated speed, GPS and pace gauges you export as a transparent layer for any editor.
From your Insta360 footage to a broadcast overlay
No extractor app and no spreadsheet. Drop in a GPX or Garmin FIT track alongside your clip, GaugeReel syncs it by timestamp, you design the gauges, then export a transparent layer.
Insta360 cameras don't write standalone GPS into the file, so GaugeReel reads a paired GPX or Garmin FIT track — from the Insta360 GPS remote, a watch, a bike computer or your phone — and locks it to the clip. Embedded gyro is read where present.
Import
Drop in an MP4 and/or a GPS track. GPMF is auto-scanned from the video; FIT and GPX load as external files. Attach several sources to one project.
- MP4 preview source
- GPX · FIT · GPMF
- Multi-source projects
- Video-less mode
Sync
Auto-align on embedded timestamps, then fine-tune with a manual offset and stretch until gauges hit every on-screen event. Per-source, applied to every bound gauge.
- Timestamp auto-sync
- Offset & stretch
- Sync-to anchors
- Data-speed modes
Design
Compose the overlay on a canvas at your project resolution. Add gauges from a searchable catalogue, drag with snapping, and edit every detail in the inspector.
- Drag · snap · lock
- Deep per-gauge editor
- Reusable profiles
- Grid & safe-areas
Export
Pick resolution, frame rate and range, then render a transparent overlay — PNG sequence, ProRes 4444 / VP9 with real alpha, or chroma-key MP4. Composite it anywhere.
- Transparent PNG seq
- ProRes 4444 / VP9 alpha
- Chroma-key MP4
- GPU hardware encode

No GPS remote? — any GPX or Garmin FIT track from a watch, bike computer or phone app works, and GaugeReel syncs it to your footage by timestamp. Brand names are the property of their respective owners; GaugeReel is an independent overlay tool and is not affiliated with Insta360.
What you can show on
Insta360 footage.
Speed, distance, pace and a live GPS route come from the paired track. Use a Garmin FIT track to add heart rate, power and cadence — then render any field as a dial, a bar, a graph or a tape.
Runner
Pace, distance, heart rate, cadence and elevation.
Walker
Gentler metrics — speed, distance, elevation, route and time.
Cyclist
Speed, power, cadence, heart rate, gradient and gears.
Car / Moto
Speed, g-forces, lean, acceleration and lap timing.
A transparent layer over your Insta360 reframe
GaugeReel never re-encodes your Insta360 clip — reframe and stitch in Insta360 Studio as usual. It renders only the gauge overlay and exports a layer with a real alpha channel, so you drop it onto a track above your footage and the instruments sit cleanly over the action.
- PNG image sequence with a true alpha channel
- ProRes 4444 or VP9 MOV/WEBM with real alpha
- Chroma-key MP4 for editors without alpha support
- Composite in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, After Effects or CapCut
Insta360 overlay questions, answered
The specifics of getting telemetry from your gear onto your footage.
Yes. Insta360 cameras — the X5, X4, X4 Air, X3 and earlier 360 cams, the Ace and Ace Pro action cameras, and the GO Ultra and GO 3S — don’t write standalone GPS into the video, so you pair a GPX or Garmin FIT track recorded by the Insta360 GPS remote, a watch, a bike computer or your phone. GaugeReel syncs that track to your Insta360 footage and renders a speed, GPS, pace or map overlay as a transparent layer.
