Glitchy

Always glitchy. Pairing with M11 is always a hit or miss. Even using USB C connection.

Keeps disconnecting

Downloading photos from my Q3 using this app has been nothing short of frustrating. Absolute junk of an app. It keeps disconnecting from the camera.

flawless until now

Never had a problem in over two years. On a trip to London the wireless connection started failing mid-connection despite trying all solitons I found online. Wish it just worked again.

Не рекомендую

Работает с переменным успехом, пользуюсь с момента выхода q2. Вы сможете подключаться к камере с переменным успехом, как на андроид так и на айфон. Под кнопкой связаться с производителем скрывается рекламный сайт продукции…
