Ratings and reviews

I was really hoping this would work better. I wanted to use it for iNaturalist photos, but the location data doesn't show up at all, or shows up as the location I'm in when the photos transfer over from the camera, which is not useful when I return home and they all transfer over. It feels like something that would have really wowed me in 2015, but disappointing currently

Connection between phone and camera is terrible. Every time I want to download pictures from my Coolpix B500 I have to be standing in just the right spot at the right time. The app doesn't seem to remember how to connect to my camera every time I use it, rendering any of the options to download or connect unavailable, forcing me to disconnect and start over. Wifis fine and works great otherwise so thats not my issue. Even when I use NFC it's spotty and the camera is in perfect condition.

On the positive, using Snapbridge with the new Nikon Z63, its been working much better than older Z6 and 7500 cameras. On the negative, Theres still room for much improvement... switching to Wi-Fi over Bluetooth is required for some tasks and this switch takes minutes. its at the point where you lose interest in what you were trying to do. and the UI of the app could be better. sometimes I accidentally go back over too many times and that looks the entire connection to the camera
