Ratings and reviews

I like the new app, and the fact that I can now transfer my M10's photos directly to my Android devices as well as my iPad. However, I would like to suggest a couple of small improvements. When transferring photos if the camera or phone goes to 'sleep' the transfer is terminated. It would be nice if the app temporarily disabled sleep mode on the phone during transfers, and if the camera firmware were also smart enough to recognize that a transfer is occurring and temporarily disable power saving mode during a transfer. The second improvement would be a 'select all' button for transfers.

Tried to connect to the SL2 dozens of times and it simply does not work. Stuck on a connection loop that crashes the app. Can't do anything. For such expensive gear, a functional app is a no-brainer especially since Panasonic has such a fantastic app that never crashes and connects in seconds. Please read all the negative reviews and address the issues.

Unable to connect with a M10D. I keep getting the message to update the camera firmware and no instructions in how to do that for this camera. I have tried Android and iOS devices and keep getting the same message. I have contacted the developers through the app as others have been instructed to do and the only message I am receiving back is that we will contact you when we hear from the app developers. Very disappointing. 2 weeks after buying the camera I was given a firmware update and with some fiddling I was able to connect to my Samsung S9. So I find the app easy to use and very useful.
