Won't freakin' upload a file!

This app is pretty good for the majority, but it won't import a file! I just stops while importing and won't tell me why! Help!!!

Doesn't work...thank goodness it's free

Would give it less than a star. It is not finding my camcorder. The Camera Access App worked fine. I'm not sure why this one isn't performing as expected.

Extremely weak UI

Gets the job done. But, you can only transfer one clip or image at a time. Use another method if at all possible.

What's the point,,,,?

...of buying a camera marketed as having wifi capability if the app doesn't work with it!?
Pixela's web site reads that this app does not support iOS 8, but the app itself says iOS 5 and later. And no customer service email or info. I can see my camera and files using the app, but I can't watch them it download/upload them.

Canon you have failed us.
I give this a negative 5 stars.

Very basic, looks outdated

It does play videos on your phone (without requiring any storage space on the phone).
But, it doesn't look good, and it doesn't do anything except view and share to youtube/facebook.
You can't share in any other way (doesn't use the OS share function), you can't edit, or delete. There are no camera control functions.

Works Well, Limited Functionality

Just tried the updated app after last using it some time ago (Canon Vixia HF M50). It works fine, but the functionality is very basic.

Most notably it only transfers video files back to your iOS device which are recorded in MP4 mode, not AVCHD mode.

VIxia MINI X

I can't play or save to library
but send to youtube or facebook.

Very basic, but does work

This is a basic app, but it does work. I suspect most users did not read the camcorder instructions, as you must initiate the mobile upload process from the camera. The camera will inform you of the correct SSID and password to use, then you go to your phone's Wi-Fi settings and select the SSID and password from the camera, and you should connect. The camera screen will say connected, but do not tap the "End" icon, as this stop the process, and the camera will stop broadcasting the SSID. Now, start the MovieUploader app and you should be able to select your connected camera, pick a video, and either upload to your phone, YouTube or Facebook. Keep in mind that there are restrictions for video quality; if your recording is too long, or too high of quality, uploading to YouTube or Facebook will not be available as options.
