"Best" app for lumix
1 star. Unusable, unfinished, and clearly untested.
I'm using an iPhone 17 Pro Max with Panasonic cameras, and this app is a disaster.
1) NO FULLSCREEN LIVE VIEW. The old Image App had it. You shipped a "replacement" that is worse than what it replaced. Did anyone on your team actually try to use this for real video work? A basic feature that worked for years is simply gone, and the remote shooting screen is cluttered with controls I can't hide.
2) THE CONNECTION IS GARBAGE. Wi-Fi keeps dropping, the phone loses the camera constantly, and I have to toggle Wi-Fi off and on again and re-join over and over just to get a picture. This is not occasional. It happens every session on a current flagship iPhone, which tells me nobody tested this on current hardware.
This is a paid-professional-gear ecosystem, and the app that's supposed to tie it together feels like an abandoned student project. Stop shipping untested releases, bring back the features you removed, and fix the connection before adding anything else.
I paid thousands for the cameras. The least you can do is make the free app work.

iOS 27 update has disabled transfer of photos.
The lumix image app has always been temperamental when downloading images from the camera. Latest iOS 27 update has completely disabled the ability to download images. Only the first image will transfer regardless of whether I select multi download or single download.

A bit meh
Constantly won’t connect to the camera and I have to delete the app and reinstall it.

Relentlessly useless
Panasonic cameras are great but this app is terrible. It just doesn’t work 99 times out of 100. You can lose weeks of your life trying to pair a device. It’s been like that for years.

Terrible app
Wants too much info & I can't download pics without giving up location info. KMA.
