The app works fine, though it is not very intuitive. I think it might be due to a UX with a less than ideal translation to English. Way too many steps. The instructions could use some improvement, as well as additional detail.
Once I figured out how to connect the software to the phone, it worked great.
SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
1. There is an On/Config/Off switch under the screen and button panel. Batteries are self explanatory.
2. Move the switch to the config position.
3. Camera/time/resolution/Bluetooth/WiFi setup is intuitive and menu driven from the button panel. Old fashioned buttons and arrows.
3. You have to set up the Bluetooth name (or use the default).
4. You have to set up the SSID and PWD (or use the default).
CONNECTION TO IPHONE
1. Download “Hunting Camera.” Not Hunting Camera+, not Hunting Camera Pro.
2. Open app
3. Select “Connect Camera”
4. Select “Step One Bluetooth On WiFi.” This will take you to iPhone’s Bluetooth Configuration Settings.
5. Connect to the camera’s Bluetooth name.
6. GO BACK TO APP
7. Select “Step Two Connect WiFi. This will take you back to iPhone WiFi Config. If it isn’t open, open iPhone WiFi Config.
8. Select Camera SSID.
9. Enter WiFi PWD
10. GO BACK TO APP
11. Connect camera.
You’re ready to go!
The back and forth setup from app to iPhone Config could use some major improvement.
Each time you connect, you have to go through a similar process to connect to Bluetooth, except the WiFi SSID pops up in the app for selection, and you don’t have to re-enter the password. This is still clunky to me. Too many Config steps. Too many connection steps.
The transfer speeds are slow, but I am using a years old 64G micro sd card, which is likely the bottleneck.
Once configured, I’ve connected from about 30’/10m without issue.
Picture quality is excellent.
App has room for improvement. It would be nice to be able to configure from the phone. If it is possible, I haven’t figured out.
