EOS Remote for Android
Picked up a new 70D and DLed this app last night. It wont install to my SSG Mini so DLed instead to my TAB2 and after testing for the past two hours just now, finally got it to work. Once connected It shows me a screen on TAB2 using the 70D's live view mode allowing me to see thru viewfinder and snap a pix! then I got into the view images mode and saw all images on the camera. NO CABLES! so cool! Considering this was made for a smartphone and it's functional on my TAB2 is not bad at all!! UPDATE: in mid-2016 the app began difficulty connected to S4/S5 and tablet. At this time Canon released a new app replacing this. The new app CAMERA CONNECT HAS NEVER WORKED WITH ANYTHING I OWN, SO I got rid of it, and continued using the EOS REMOTE. Now this app doesn't connect either :(
Buggy, slow, and confusing. Hasn't been updated in forever. Bulb can't be manually set to a lengthy amount of time, either. Connection is also laborious.
Crashes every time I try to use it. Have yet to be able to actually take a picture. Can't seem to stay connected to the camera.
Used Eos remote worked like a charm with my 70D, app replaced with Canon connect won't even detect my camera. So DISAPPOINTING
It's the best and on time. I've tried the Second program which didn't do way this one does. If only I could attach my logo on pictures before sending them. I really recommend this program for shooting and posting right there and then. Question: When upgrading this app, can you add an option of attaching a logo or watermark on pictures before sending ?
This app is SO much better than camera connect!! Bring this one back and ditch that replacement app. It's garbage.
Am using moto g2. Unable to connect in 700D and the connectivity is not available.. Us there any problem with this app?
This is the most wonderful apps I have ever used to connect to my 70D! Thanks for your great work. Got some room to develop more but what I got now works fantastic! Well done!
Connects but I can not view images. Hope they fix the problem. Very dissatisfied
Please make it work with OTG! I just bought 5D mk IV and i would love to use my phone as a monitor for shooting video while using dualpixel AF! Other than that it works well, and a lot better than the old app.
Its slow unstable and to conect it takes years. It goes off every few minutes and you have to reconect. And you cant use it for video that sucks most of all.
Used to work great back when I had an S3 and an S5, but on my Nexus it takes 10 minutes of trying to get it to connect to my camera before it finally stops dropping the connection. It also never reconnects; I have to restart the connection efforts every time.
Can in --appro. Fix the broken tether firmware in the eos-m1 or pay me back for my money and time wasted. Till then, Go Pentax!
Tried this with EOS-M2 and Droid Mini. Set up is fairly easy. Works great at a good distance without line of site. Canon Camera Connect does not work with eosm2. Just hit OK when you see the message that tells you to use CCC. Not many controls, but the app actually works! That's why I squeaked out 5 stars. I use it only as a shutter release.
This app will not stay connected with LG-G3 my 70d while data is on :_( I found putting my smart phone on airplane mode with the 70 D will connect fine. More testing needed. Update I typed cutting of the data on my phone and it stay connected as soon as I turned it data back on within 2 minutes disconnected from my smart phone. Canon please fix app.
I am in love with this app! The only thing that used to irk me about using my camera was that if I wanted to upload any of my photographs online, I had to transfer the photos manually via my laptop. This app and wifi function makes my life 1000 times easier!!
This was a mains part of my work flow, and it was reliable, responsive and fast! If it wasn't for a new model camera so that it no longer works, I'd still be using it. The new app SUCKS SO BAD.
Total crap since the uptate! Won't connect longer than a few seconds. I wasted half a night trying to get it to work. I'm compleatly disappointed and the embarrassed because I couldn't get the shots I needed. It worked great before. Now I'll probably never use it again.
It's good for downloading images to my phone. The remote shooting is worthless on my Note 4 now. The wifi always disconnects when trying to take photos. Or the app itself crashes. Please fix.

Used to be a usable app. Now replaced by Canon Camera Connect which is unusable. Phone no longer recognizes the camera's WiFi. Is this app malware, or did Canon actually produce this crap?

I have 6d n it's not connecting atal with Samsung E5 5.1.1 android os. It's complicated not not like Nikon. Please fix this .
Since the latest changes to wifi handling in android, this app simply refuses to connect to the camera. And canon has not even bothered to fix anything.
The setup is a bit clunky but one you're past that the app is excellent. (Canon 6D and Xperia Z1)

No longer works, appears to be abandoned by canon. I paid for a 6d to use this feature and now it's gone.
Crap
It seems rather moronic to have so many different worthless apps that "Canon connect has replaced", just remove this worthless crap from the store or stick to a single damned app and just update it.
Had no problem before now they have changed and the new one don't work
It works but ... there is a certain bug, you can not download more than 49 (51) pictures at once. Evan after update the same problem. I don't know if this is a file size limit or number of photos limit, din't test more... Working with 70D & note4.
I have just upgrade to android 6.0. This app always closed automaticly when view the image in live view mode. Please fix
Keeps crashing. Worked perfectly b4 and now just waste of time
Works totally random! Once it does, and for the next several times it just doesn't ...
The app works well, but the UI is really ugly
Use to work perfectly on iPhone but with Android considering that the WiFi of Canon isn't "network"... It doesn't work....
This one is better then the new one it's faster and works better I'll stick with this one
為何下載照片只能看當天拍攝的圖檔?隔一天之後就不能下載很麻煩耶!

Its really good app. Its working perfectly with my 6D. Please put exposure bar in next version. And also others parameter can be controllable, like white balance, style, bracketing (exposure & white balance) , AF mode, Drive mode (single, continuous, self timer, etc.), Metering mode, Image Quality, etc.
