Doesn’t work
Apparently Canon had Pixela develop the app so Canon doesn’t claim responsibility for the fact that it doesn’t work despite the fact that this was a major selling point for the HF R*2 series of camcorders.

Frustrating
Tried everything from A to Z and nothing worked with my canon vixia.
Does not work with IPhone 12
A junk app that is described in the Canon owner manual for their Vixia HF R62 camcorder. A waste of time.
Canon vixia hf r82 hd
Got it to connect to my iPhone once and never got it to connect to my iPad. This app doesn't work and is a waste of time. Deleted!
Junk
App does not work
Buyer Beware
This version DOES NOT SUPPORT iOS11. According to Canon

HF R50
I just purchased a used (but unused) HF R50. I did the typical Google searches prior to buying and knew going in that there was a lag with wi-fi playback.
I downloaded this app knowing that with the micro SD card that wi-fi features probably wouldn’t ever be needed. It serves a useful purpose but in all reality, I’m going to be inserting the micro SD card into my computer to save videos and to send videos!
Though it probably doesn’t reach the acceptability of those that might use the features, it does for those of us that use it as a bonus feature, because we don’t rely on the app for day to day uses.

Unreliable
The camcorder is connected to the home WiFi, the iOS device (I’ve tried iPhone and iPad) are connected to the WiFi...but the device cannot connect to the camera??? Sometimes it will, most times it will not. Because usage is unreliable is why I give it one star. Also, the delay between what the camera shows and what’s on your remote device causes some issues if you’re trying to follow movement.

Great App
I am not sure why there are so many own reviews. We use two Canons and Two apps to record college volleyball matches for scouting and stats. We use it at least 3 times a week for 16 weeks. Never ever had an issue.
Complete disappointment
I can’t make it sync with camera. Total failure.
Only connected once
I was so excited about having the ability to remotely zoom in and out while videoing my online course. Purchased the Vixia HF R80 just for this feature. I was only able to connect once. After that no matter what sequence or scenario I tried, my the app would not connect even when I was connected manually through my iPhone settings. Such a HUGE disappointment!!!

iOS10.2でダメです
iOS10.2にアップデートしたらカメラを見つけられなくなりました
Disappointed in video quality
Terrible quality of recordings compared to the features of the vixia camera hf r72. The app should allow the camera to have its screen set.
I Tried recording to both my phone and iPad and expected lower quality there. But the recording on the camera it self was terrible compared to manual operation.
Please allow us to use the camera settings for scenes, framing etc!!!

Using "Monitor from Home" mode - works great
I am using the "Monitor from Home" option with this app, and my Canon Vixia HF R52. Phone is iPhone 6s+. This works great. I would like to see an option that lets me livestream broadcast using Vixia video camera as source, directly to Facebook Live and YouTube live. Other apps are doing this for other cameras. I would pay for this app feature. Please contract me regarding this. I am a software engineer.
Here's how I connected my phone to the Vixia using the Monitor from Home option:
On Vixia, in recording mode, choose the top left home menu button. On that screen, choose the "Remote Control+Streaming" menu. Button image for this menu looks like a smartphone. It should be on the right. Tap that button or slide to bring that button to the center of menu. Tap it (phone icon) again to enter into the Remote Control+Streaming menu.
Now there are 3 options on the left: "Monitor from Home", monitor remotely, and options. Tap "Monitor from Home". Follow instructions on that screen, which says to connect your phone's wifi to the Vixia's wifi on your phone. Note: unless you are connected to a mobile network, this will disable the Internet on your phone. You will need to verify your phone connects back to your regular internet wifi after your Vixia connection is ended.
On your phone, go to the wifi menu and it should display the Vixia wifi. Connect to that wifi using the credentials displayed on the Vixia "Monitor from Home" screen. On the Vixia "Monitor from Home" screen, it should say "Connected".
Now open the free "CameraAccess plus" app on your phone. Under "Monitor from Home", tap the Start button. It may flash a "searching" notice but quickly you should see an entry on the app screen that says "[OK]". Tap that and you should see the real-time video of your Vixia displayed on your phone.

iOS9未対応？
結構便利に使っていたのですが、OSを上げたら、繋がりはするものの画面が真っ暗。iOS9はサポート外のようですが、対応遅すぎませんか。

Selected & Bought R50 camcorder & CT-V1 pan table specifically for the remote control & remote monitoring capability. Figuring you can't go wrong with OEM gear from a major maker like Canon. Like the other reviewers, the wireless connection was established only for a few seconds and the camcorder cannot be reconnected again. Another piece of junk in my recycling bin. Should have read the feedback before purchase.
