Ratings and reviews

This app seems to work once, transferring photos and videos, but later I am unable to get a Bluetooth connection and I have to uninstall and then install again. I wish it would work all the time so I don't have to keep uninstalling. I will probably only use this app when I am away from my computer and have important photos to save online. Otherwise I will just take out the memory card and put it in my computer in order to save my photos and videos.

I use this app to geotag my photos and take long exposure photos. The app works fairly well in Bluetooth mode, and is nearly unusable in WiFi mode. After installing this app, it seems like my phone's location is in use 24/7 even if the camera is off. That said, geotagging works for the most part. As for remote photography: Bluetooth mode works fairly well. It does take ~5-20 seconds and will sometimes fail to connect or kick you out once connected, but works with minimal delay when connected.

#1: You can download a HEIF (.HIF) image, but you can't view it in the app after you download it. #2: Good thing photography is not about "capturing the moment" (sarcasm), because every time you need to switch cameras or use WiFi, you are looking at 15-30 seconds to switch. #3: I guess I must be unusually fortunate or have an unusual degree of patience, because many Nikon owners just give up on getting the app to work for them.
