The new app it keeps suggesting doesn't work for me, but this one does. Allows me to transfer photos directly from my camera to my phone, at which point I can edit and upload them online. I like that I can skip the step of using a computer if I just want to post a couple of pictures, and also that the camera can be its own access point if you're somewhere that doesn't have wifi. I love it.

Using the same camera this app works fine on Galaxy Nexus withJellybean but not on Nexus 5 with Lollipop. The camera's access point and the Nexus 5 can connect to each other but the app just freezes as soon as the connection is completed. Canon needs to fix this and also there should be a warning in the app's description in the Playstore. Canon, please fix.

Such a pity this does not support video. Appears you can only trigger photos remotely so sadly not a lot of use to me :-( Please Canon update this app to support remote video :-)

I think there is a compatibility issue. The new version of the app works well with my brand new SX60 HS but will not work at all with my G16, which is itself less than a year old. The old version, pre remote control, worked fine. The equivalent app on my sony just works and is easier to connect.

I've got the same problem as apparently everybody. This app just doesn't work. My phone is connected, but it tells me it isn't. I simply cannot understand how a huge company like Canon can ignore such an enormous problem. This function was the ONLY reason I bought this camera. Wish my Sony didn't break. Never had problems with their app.

Bought this camera based on reviews, RAW shooting abilities and remote shooting. It's not a cheap purchase and I researched this decision extensively. I don't care about transferring images from camera to phone...I only wanted what the description said... "remote shooting." So here's the good news: It will shoot remotely with your "Droid..no problem. You have a plethora of choices which include firing the shutter and zooming. ANY CHOICES you might have made to the camera beforehand like RAW or bracketing disappear AND you can only shoot in P mode. A JPG, is all you get, period. I guess the app is worth what I paid for it...nothing. Developers: Consider transferring full pre-set functionality to remote shooting and charge for it. I for one, will pay!

Can not connect to G7X with Android 7.0 installed on my (new) mobile. The camera sends out the Wi-Fi network signal, and I connect to that network with my phone, but when I open the software on the phone and try to download pics, it tells me that I need to "Operate the Camera to Establish a Connection." I can't connect. Moreover, operating the camera in any way at that point causes the camera to come out of Wi-Fi mode (disconnecting from my phone) and resume a normal shooting mode.
