  • Can't get

    It it work at all. My device doesn't seem to find the camera at all. Sad. Was looking forward to uploading video. Instructions would be nice.
  • Great idea but the app crashes

    The app won't work right most of the time, very much devaluing my camcorder!

  • Canon hf m50

    Yo tengo una video grabadora canon hf m50, pero no funciona ya hice de todo, sería bueno que pudieran arreglar la aplicacion, para poder utilizarla yo estoy usando un iPhone 5.
  • Does not work

    I just bought vixia HF R42 and am running iOS 6. Both uploader app and camera control app do not work. iPad does not connect even after camera states a connection has been made. Even tried to adjust vid settings to MP4 17 Mbps and still nothing. Considering canon is touting this new wifi feature they should make sure the app works.
  • App Does Work!!!

    iPad2 - iOS 6.1.3 - Canon HF R42

    Took me a moment to figure out how to use this app to upload movies to my iPad but it does work well.

    1. Make sure your movie format is set to MP4.
    2. Make sure your video quality is 24Mbps or less. 35Mbps is not compatible on the iPad or iPhone.
    3. Record a short video.
    4. Now go to playback mode so you can see the video thumbnails on the screen.
    5. From video playback mode, click on the home button to bring up the menu.
    6. Scroll over to the WiFi symbol in the menu and click it.
    7. Scroll up or down to find the icon choice for "movie uploader" and click OK.
    8. Camcorder now enters into WiFi mode for movie uploads. You will see the camcorders SSID and password on its screen.
    9. Now go into Settings / WiFi and locate the SSID in the iPad list for the camcorder. Select it.
    10. Enter the password that is displayed on the camcorder screen to join the WiFi network via your iPad.
    11. Once connected the camcorder will say its connected.
    12. Open the Movie Uploader App on your iPad and click the camcorders button in the top left corner of the app.
    13. Your camcorder should then be displayed, if not try hitting refresh.
    14. When you see your camcorder in the list, click it and then choose the media on the camera you wish to review and upload from.
    15. Select a video file inside the app and choose to save to your camera roll.
    16. After its saved in the camera roll, you can play it back or even import it into iMovie to edit it. (As long as its 24Mbps or less)

    The other app for remote camera control also works good too but you have to start the WiFi for that while in the record mode and hitting the home button. That is where I was initially confused.

    Camera control - turn on WiFi from record screen
    Movie Upload - turn on WiFi from playback screen.
  • Canon ipad app terrible

    I have vixia hfm50. The camera will not connect via the app, and the lack of documentation, instruction, and its confusing opening screen ("tap the cameras top left button") is pathetic.
  • Forget this app

    I have a Canon Vixia HF50 and does NOT work.
  • Nope

    Doesn't work for me either using a Legria HS M56.
