Failed attempts to Get Photos from X100VI.
Im frustrated that the app can backup & restore, but no longer is able to get photos from my X100VI. The wifi connection now also fails to connect to my network Access Point. I have tried to used 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz without any success.
Connection to camera never worked
It’s been 2 years and I still have not successfully transferred a single image to my XApp. The wifi connection is clearly broken.
Not connecting
After last update on the camera the app stopped recognising connection with my camera
How to connect the camera to my phone
Please let me know I already tried to reset and remove the app but no!!!!
Don’t work
Shutter remote don’t work with gfx 100s
Inconsistent
Fuji X 100 VI
Really slow
I find connecting to the camera to be painfully slow almost every time. So slow that I frequently give up and wish it was as good as other brands in this area.
Not compatible with iPhone 18pro
Not able to connect with my xm5 with iPhone 18Pro. (My old iPhone15 pro works)
Won’t connect
For the life of me it was working one day and now it won’t connect to my phone no matter what.
Fuji Fail
For a major camera company this is truly one of the worst app out there. Bluetooth connection has to be reset everytime you want to pair to the device. When selecting images the app can crash meaning if you’re wanting to transfer a large batch, you have to reselect from the start. Transferring speeds are slow even with 5Ghz. It’s easier just to use a USB cable and uses Files to import. Fuji should be doing better

Poor set up implementation & limitations
Disappointing. Camera firms will be scratching their heads wondering why no one buys their stuff. They don’t realise that by paying zero attention to their software they will kill off the mirrorless camera market. My X-T3 has bugs that will never be fixed as they’ve dropped support for this camera long ago. And the x-app is similarly forgotten. I haven’t used it for a year and while it says it’s been updated in July 26 it is functionally identical to 2 years ago. It has no way to go full screen or flip from portrait to landscape. This could be a perfect solution to vlogging and remote wildlife shooting. You can do the basics on the XApp. It works if you have patience- it wouldn’t forget an old camera pairing which was a headache. You could enhance the functionality of Fuji cameras 1000 times with some thought and insight. Sadly as iPhone’s evolve- with full support and updates- it may look bleak for camera companies. Stop dropping support for cameras and think about your software before it is too late. I couldn’t care less about more megapixels.

GFX100 II
For 10 years I worked with a Hasselblad H5D-50c Wi-Fi, a camera from 2012, connecting seamlessly over Wi-Fi to iPad via the Phocus app. I recently purchased the Fujifilm GFX 100 II, this manufacturer’s flagship medium format camera released in 2023, and I simply cannot work with it. The app is completely useless, and the camera itself is rendered unusable due to constant connection drops.
The app blocks all camera control options, and navigating between the gallery and camera settings takes ages. There is no option for USB Connect, and no automatic loading of photos after they are shot. To top it off, I am forced to pay a subscription for Capture One mobile, a third-party company that actually managed to build a working control app for a Fuji camera.
I am strongly considering initiating a formal dispute with Fujifilm. If this is their flagship product and software, I want buy a camera that actually works as advertised by the manufacturer.
Ps. Shame.

Crashing a lot on new iPhone 18
When trying to get photos crashing 85% of the time on new iPhone 18 with X-T30
Overall, the performance is very unstable and unprofessional.
One star—because, for me, this app has turned into a complete waste of time. First, the app itself doesn't offer the kind of shooting freedom you get with Canon, for example. I won't go into a long explanation—the app simply isn't professional-grade, and it's impossible to use it for serious work. Second, there’s the notorious instability. I bought a GFX100 II camera costing over 10,000 CAD. After connecting it to the app, I was prompted to update the firmware. Once the update was done, the camera could no longer connect to the app. I tried removing the device from the app and reconnecting it—nothing works. I wasted half an hour on this. This is certainly not what you expect from a product at this price point. I blame the app because I really hope the issue isn't with the camera itself—or that it gets fixed soon. Fujifilm! Please, finally create a professional, reliable, and functional app for your high-end cameras! Sony and Canon are miles ahead in this regard, and this could be a reason for me to switch back to those brands.

Unreliable…..
Hit and miss, still, while using WiFi. iPhone fails to join the camera network on multiple occasions. Pointless then popping up an error message at the bottom of the app in Japanese??
Works very well using USB C cable between devices though.

Interval timer.
Great improvement, but needs to be able to trigger the interval timer.
Won’t connect to ios27
I can’t connect my Fuji x100vi anymore after I upgraded my iOS to 27
iOS App not compatible anymore
iOS app is no longer compatible with XT-5… it’s been several months. The connection issue has never been solved… super disappointing and frustrating!!
iPad support
What year is this? Come on now.
App/Connection Keeps Crashing
9 of 10 attempts I can’t connect with the app especially with the wireless feature.
