Actually you don't. I use mine standalone and then download via USB or by taking out the microSD card. It's nicer to use it with the phone as you'll get to see what the camera is seeing, but that's really only useful for the fisheye one-camera mode.
I got mine off of new for $75. They were giving these away as a promotion item if you bought an S8, so there were a lot of people putting these up for sale, unopened, on . Don't know if that's still the case now though.

Too bad that you need a Samsung phone to use it.

Thank you!
