This app will use foregroundservices in certain situations to keep the connection between phone and camera alive. You can run the app in background in these situations or turn the screen off. The service will continue until the task is done or the corresponding notification is dismissed. The following features use a foregroundservice: intervall captures, focus stacking, downloading files.

You can use my other app Camera Connect & Control to test if the connection with your camera works.

Ratings and reviews

LOVE this app when connecting via USB-C to either my Canon R5 or my Canon Ra. I found the wireless/WiFi/Bluetooth connection to be funky, confusing, difficult. The cable = instant connect. The app has every feature of the Canon Connect app PLUS it allows you to manually micro focus thru the app...huge bonus for Astro images. Wishlist items: a night-light version and focus measuring algorithms similar to Backyard EOS this would be killer. Also had to turn my Sigma to AF for app to work

Connects with my Z9 with USB-C Cable but the display is a bit soft and very importantly the AF point doesn't move so easily plus doesn't zoom in for focus verification...

Got the app for the eclipse and it did everything I asked of it. Made focusing and tracking way easier. Camera was Canon 6D Mk II and a Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 tablet.

What's new

* handle situation if file gets deleted during download
* fixed problem with usb connection on older Canon cameras
