Please add voice command to take a picture, some of us really need it. Great app as soon as I realized I had to manually set my phone's wifi connection to the camera's own network before trying to connect to the app.

Please add the ability to store a 2mp image on the phone automatically in the same way as the play memories app allows. The really great thing about this app is it allows you to use a bluetooth selfie stick button to fire the shutter as the phone volume control acts as a shutter button, this is more than the play memories app can do.

As much as I hope and appreciate someone would make use of the API and develop for Sony cameras especially the QX series, I must say that I'm disappointed with the apps' quality. This app is not functional for me (pairing Android 5.1.1 with QX100), which is even worse than the occasional disconnections on the official PlayMemories Mobile app. I had high hopes when I saw this along with the SmartWatch App. An extra star for the effort and attempt.

I foud your software Recacon on google play and tried it with my Sony Dsc-qx10 and I seem to have an issue with your software not being able to see the Camera. I know that the camera works fine because I just took it on vacation with me and used it extensively for pictures and video. I just wanted to ask you if you had any thoughts or sugguestions in fixing the problem. I am using or trying to use the free version with a DSC-QX10 and a Google Nexus 7. I hope to hear back from you as I would really love to use your app be ause it can take advantage of both cameras at the same time.

I'd like to find a better program than PMM5.7 (since 5.8 is terrible!) I found an OLD version of Camera360.. but this won't even connect.. and the camera is right next to it. both PMM and C360 work. If it worked ..I'd be the first to applaud it
