Awful keeps disconnecting

It sucks. There is a new firmware for my camera but it cannot install it "installation failed". Canon just added a new feature that is "Canon ID". It looks like they are getting ready to collect and sell personal information. It may be more profitable than selling bad products.

I want to import my photos in row but the app converts to JPG without my permission. I didn't like it. Hated

Would love a "Full Screen" option when using my phone for the camera live view. It only uses about 1/2 which makes it tough to see.

Recently, I can no longer connect to my G9X MkII! Before, everything worked great and has done so for years!

Absolute garbage. It used to just work in the past and now it's a total trash. Prompts don't make any sense. Keeps prompting to connect to camera's wifi network when the phone is already connected to it. And this new requirement to register device which doesn't even work properly. Shame that such a renowned company cannot even put out a halfway decent app to use with their camera.

Historically it's been a valuable way to get photos off the camera while on the move. It's a bit cumbersome but some of that is Android's fault rather than the app. However, the app is now saying I will need a Canon login to keep using it, which it has no legitimate need for, so as soon as that happens I'll be ditching it for a phone compatible SD card reader.

-Compatible File Types
