Ratings and reviews

Okay, so first off - this is a major improvement over the default system to transfer media. Like the Dev mentioned, the way Nintendo implemented it was sloppy. Next, the main issue I see people having is that they're saying they can't scan the qr code because the camera in the app doesn't autofocus: all you have to do is hold your device a little further back from the Switch screen until it's in focus. You don't have to align the Switch qr code to the camera window in the app! :) Thank you!

I had to update my review. This app doesn't download videos. like at all. and also, when I try to download anything, it just hangs and does nothing. I dunno what happened but this app use to be good. now? using the Nintendo way to transfer stuff seems more reliable. Shame.

softlocking POS can transfer one video only then have to restart my phone because it never connects to the second video....it worked like a dream on my pixel 2 i could stack 4-5 uploading at a time.....and runs like complete 💩on my s9...... make that make sense
