Won’t connect

When I try to connect it it just keep telling me to connect it again even though it’s already connected and currently it’s not showing many features on the app or any of the photos.

It’s 2025, still not good.

App crashes, camera disconnects from iphone constantly, no live view, exporting takes way too long, crashes during exports anyway, and battery on camera barely lasts for any practical use. I’m honestly surprised samsung, of all companies, would release a product like this. However, price explains itself for a budget go-pro.

Doesn’t work!!!

This app refuses to connect to the camera. I can get my phone to connect to my 360 cam but the phone will not connect to the camera via the app. Total garbage. Will never buy another Samsung product again!! They make junk and kill off their support faster then their products come out. Junk!!

And I thought the Android app on Samsung phones was bad

This app is beyond garbage. It’s ADVANCED garbage. The workflow requires connecting and disconnecting from WiFi networks, and even if the workflow was simpler, the app crashes constantly. Ok, I was using this app on an iPhone 6, and it’s old, but so is the app. Samsung, I beg of you to just make it open source, omg, your apps on both Android and iOS are just complete dog doo.

Camera doesn’t connect to app anymore

The app used to work, but it doesn’t anymore.
This app is trash, and I’m glad I don’t have a Samsung phone. If the app is this bad, I cannot imagine how bad their other devices are.
