It is a troublesome app (V2.29). Only if AND Wifi AND Bluetooth And Location are switched ON, it might work. Then I have to do some resets of the camera (R6) and the phone (Android). Then most of the time, I can transfer JPG files to my phone. But only to a predefined location. I did not find a way to copy my photos directly to an additional microSD of 256GB on my phone. Best way is to buy an OTG cardreader and use that configuration to copy both JPG and RAW photos to your phone.....

Update: after you "upgrade" this app you can start all over again, your former settings ARE GONE! Most user-unfriendly and unstable app I've ever seen. You have to have bluetooth AND WiFi active and the app "MIGHT" connect to the camera (mine SX730HS). I would expect something far better from a topshelf brand as Canon. Just get a big SD card and copy it from the card to your computer... it saves you a lot of stress and just forget about this app pls.

You charge thousands of euros for you cameras and thousands more for your lenses. How can you offer such an astonishing bad application?! It is very likely the worst application I have seen in years! Feels like it was made 10 years ago when Android came out and never updated. I literally cannot close it, like the back button does not work!! Do you guys ever even use it internally?! Plus the connection flow is terrible! This is shameful and disrespectful to your customers!
