Ratings and reviews

I had a few small issues at first, but it didn't take long to get things sorted and now I really like the app. First, I had some connection issues, but then I realized this was my phone dropping the connection due to no Internet access. Once I got the phone to forget about looking for the Internet and hold the connection, it was fine. Second, I tried using it and had an issue where I had the camera drive setting in continuous shooting but the app was in single shot, it gave me a strange message and would not take a picture until I figured out that both the app and camera had to be in the same drive mode. After getting these two small issues figured out, it has worked flawlessly and I really like it a lot! It does what I need it to and then some.

Unable to connect at all any more. What the hell? How is this even possible. I used to be able to copy images from the camera via Bluetooth (wifi never worked), but I can't even do that anymore. Do you not have budget to fix the bugs? Why release the app at all? If you can't support the application, do not advertise the connectivity, and do not release the app at all. Just have people copy images the old way. Very disappointing. $900 is not cheap for GRIII, you should do better by People Ricoh..

I thought this app was broken because I couldn't get camera thumbnails to load and couldn't select photos to transfer to the phone. Then I realized photos were automatically transferring. The interface needs work, but the bones are there. Transfer is not fast (5MB/s at peaks), but I can forget OTG nonsense with the SD card. Three stars plus one more star for also transferring RAW images but minutes one star for constant connection issues.
