User Reviews

The app is praised for easy use and broad camera compatibility, plus responsive support and good value for the Pro version. Common drawbacks are connection reliability, slow transfers and RAW-download limitations, missing bulk actions/file management, and screen-lock disconnects. These issues recur across several reviews, tempering otherwise positive impressions.

Pros

Easy to use with a straightforward UI.
Works with a wide range of cameras and devices (Canon, Nikon, old models; works across phones and wearables).
Responsive developer and good support/updates.
Good value; users are willing to upgrade to the Pro version.
A lifeline for tethering when native apps are flaky.

Cons

Connection/pairing is inconsistent and can fail or be slow.
Media transfer is slow and RAW download is not supported or impractical.
Missing bulk actions and file management features (cannot mark all photos at once; no bulk rename or image rating).
App requires the screen to stay on and disconnects when the screen locks.
Occasional issues with loading new photos or updating the gallery (stale previews).

Got access to my camera, but only Bluetooth, Wifi not work. You can only download pix, but only single one, no bulk download or deleting possible. Everything else you have to pay for. So NO free app!

Timely response from Developer.Email Support before posting a bad review.Still exploring all this app has to offer,but its working well,even on my dated hardware.Replicates almost every function of DSLR on a tablet,making it easier to configure settings.Invaluable if you struggle to operate the "on-camera" controls.Live View with Single Step increments in manual focus,when zoomed in tight,gives far more control than manually rotating lens focus ring,all with image preview on a bigger screen.
