Frustrating bugs kill great potential

This app is hopeless on my D600. It's filled with bugs, crashes at the worst times (when are the good times for crashes), and leaves me stuck where the only escape is to cycle power to my phone.

I cannot see relying on the software let alone fiddling with it's annoying issues during the pressure of a real shoot.

Unable to sync Nikon D3200

Never worked, I just press add camera, already recognised in the wifi, and TA DA!! Fatal CRASH!! Sad because it looks like a good app, iPad 2 w/ iOS 9.3.1. Hope Helicon fix this bug

CamRanger Compatibility

This app is pretty excellent in terms of functionality and usability. Though, it is really restrictive on what cameras it works with, it would be an amazing idea to make it able to connect with a CamRanger (CamRangers typically connect cameras to IOS devices wirelessly using wi-fi signals) that way we can plug the device into any camera we want and connect it to your app, which is much better that the official CamRanger app.

Too good to be true

I downloaded this app so I could make time lapse videos on my Nikon d3300. I assumed it would work because I have the wifi adapter but I assumed wrong because it doesn't work. I don't know if it's because of my camera, which is stupid because it should just work, or because heliconsoft didn't make it supported yet but I really want this to work and I hope they add support for my camera soon

Doesn't work

This app doesn't work - at least it won't tether a Nikon D90 using the correct cables.

Wifi limitations

Some nice feature function but the app cannot connect directly to the camera’s wifi access point. It only works through an intermediate wifi access point which renders it useless in the field

Doesn't work

Won't connect to my canon eos m3
