Ratings and reviews

I don't know how Panasonic took an app that worked and connected flawlessly with their older models, and then made it completely unreliable. Connecting just to download photos works, but usually takes multiple attempts. Shooting photos using your phone is a 50/50 proposition, and you can forget about shooting videos remotely -- the video gets choppy and the connection eventually fails. Love my Lumix G9II, but this is unacceptable.

I absolutely love this app. There was a period of time where I couldn't get them to stay linked once I stopped using it. I'm not sure if was the camera, the app, or my phone but it's finally working to where I can even power on my camera only using the app. This app also makes it incredibly easy while I'm doing self-shoots which is a large part of what I use my camera for.

99% failure rate when attempting to connect to the camera wifi. Lumix sync is the worse of the worse and that is an accomplishment. Congrats Lumix. Update it has gotten better but still...
