Review summary

Users report that Link123 Plus enables basic camera control and photo transfer via Bluetooth and WiFi on supported devices. However, many experience frequent app crashes, connection failures, and a cumbersome multi-step connection process requiring Bluetooth, WiFi, and location enabled. Compatibility issues with newer Android versions often prevent connection, making the app unreliable. Limited control options and lack of updates exacerbate user frustration, especially since the app is essential for certain camera models. While some older devices work well, the overall experience is inconsistent and frustrating for many users.

2023-06-23	C.*****	Not bad with MN35Z. Had to reset settings on phone then was able to get wifi connected. Ensure you have bluetooth, wifi and location enabled on phone as they are required for some android versions to connect.

2022-07-06	Do*****	I gave the app one star because your app is in serious need of updating in order to keep up with Android releases! Minolta requires your app to connect my camera to my Android phone. My last phone update in June, 2022, disabled the camera's bluetooth connection via the app. It will not reconnect. I am able to get pictures via USB cable (the old-school method) to my laptop, but that is not always convenient. UPDATE YOUR APP!!!
