Ratings and reviews

People are flaming this for NO reason. the app is to INTERFACE with the camera, not CONNECT to it. simply activate the wifi in the camera, connect to it like any other network on your phone, in your phone settings menu (check the default password for your model online). Only 4 stars because this is not stated plainly in the app, and because the video playback is a little laggy on the phone, layout is easy to read and works well.

I have to admit, the app its self has potential, however having to disable mobile data and connect via WiFi makes no sense. I also cannot connect via Bluetooth, only by WiFi. This app is great for use with a gimbal if you have your cellphone attached to the side, you can see what your camera is filming. The app is also super buggy, and freezes constantly. If this app could show the camera view, and control a gimbal, at the same time it would be awesome.

Notice how they don't reply or help anyone in the reviews. Some reviewer's have said that you need to "figure it out" or "It was just user error." I am not tech illiterate. This is not a matter of User Error. The instructions to connect your phone and camera are very simple. The cameras wifi shows up on my phone with data off, but when I tap it (tap registers) theres no prompt to type in a password. The camera says "Waiting for WiFi connection." It just simply doesn't work for most of us. Trash
