### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-08-14*

Good app

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! Really glad you're enjoying the app. If you ever have any suggestions or features you'd like to see, feel free to let me know!

### 2/5 — 원격 촬영

*2026-08-13*

너무 기다려왔던 기능이라, 고민 없이 바로 구매했는데 안정성이 너무 떨어져요. 계속 끊기고 버튼도 안먹히고 아 너무 성질나 ㅠ

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요. 불편을 드려 죄송합니다.

이 앱은 카메라와 연결되어 작동하기 때문에 정확한 원인 파악이 필요합니다. 번거로우시겠지만 앱 내 ‘진단 로그 내보내기’로 로그를 저장하신 후 support@grsnap.app 로 보내주시면 빠르게 확인하고 도와드리겠습니다. 감사합니다.

### 5/5 — 기다리고 있던 앱 출시!

*2026-08-05*

올라포토님 소개로 알게되었습니다! 
리코 원격 앱이 없어서 아쉬웠었는데 출시돼서 기뻐요! 이제 가족 사진도 찍을 수 있게 되었어요! 🥹👍🏻 감사합니다

**Developer response:** 따뜻한 후기 감사합니다! 이제 가족 사진도 편하게 담으시길 바라요. 개선했으면 하는 점이 있으면 언제든 알려주세요! 🙏

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-07-05*

Definitely check this one out, works quite seamlessly on my iPhone and my GRIIIx. Thanks developer! She’ll be

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! Really glad it's working seamlessly with your GRIIIx. If you ever have any suggestions or features you'd like to see, feel free to let me know!

### 5/5 — All photo transfer apps should be like this

*2026-06-25*

Between Nikon, Canon, Sony, Fuji and Ricoh they all share one thing in common: completely worthless companion apps. 

For over fifteen years, all I’ve wanted from them their apps is seamless Bluetooth pairing, easy file transfer, and a decent enough remote shutter (with or without a viewfinder). This app does all that somehow better than all five of those brands and then some. 

These multibillion dollar companies should be ashamed they don’t have apps half as good as this one. I don’t know if it’s possible, but I would love to see this same app for at least Fuji cameras as well

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words! It really means a lot to hear that. 
I'm glad it's working well for you. If you have any other ideas or feedback, feel free to let me know!

### 3/5 — 動画の撮影もリモートでできるものと思いました

*2026-06-22*

movファイルも取り扱えると商品説明に記載されていたのでリモートで動画撮影も可能かと思い購入しました。ただ残念ながら動画撮影には対応していないようですね。
今後の改善にて動画撮影もリモートでできるようにして頂ければと思います。

**Developer response:** レビューいただきありがとうございます。ご期待に沿えず残念です。movファイルの転送には対応しておりますが、現時点ではリモートでの動画撮影機能には対応しておらず、説明が分かりにくく申し訳ございません。商品説明を改善するとともに、リモート動画撮影についても今後のアップデートで検討してまいります。

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-06-17*

Way better than the default app, allows me to send straight to light room without saving on my gallery

**Developer response:** Thank you! Glad the Lightroom workflow works well for you. If you have any other feature ideas, feel free to let me know!

### 5/5 — 不错的原厂替代软件

*2026-06-06*

软件界面设计都非常好，希望下个版本可以在下载图片时增加非原图下载的功能，这样就可以完全抛弃官方的软件了

**Developer response:** 感谢你的支持和建议。在下个版本的更新中，分享按钮将会使用更轻量且适合在社交网络中分享的图片质量，满足非原图的需求。

### 5/5 — Better than the official app!

*2026-06-04*

Feels way, more responsiv and User Friendly and the Official App. Sleek UI. Connecting to my GRIII is also easier.
Thank you for making this!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy this app. let me know if you have any suggestions.

### 5/5 — Faster and more stable than GRWorld

*2026-06-02*

Gotta love it when independent devs make a better app with fewer resources than a large corporation. Great job.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your support. Let me know if you have any suggestions or feedback.
