Review summary

Reviews show a mixed-to-poor experience. The app's core function—transferring video from Canon camcorders to iOS—exists but is plagued by widespread connection failures and compatibility gaps with newer models. Users report cameras not being recognized, unreliable or stalled transfers, and no progress indicators. Documentation and support are criticized as insufficient, with hints of outdated guidance. A few reviews note it can work in limited setups or for single clips, but general reliability is inconsistent. Overall, many users want updates, broader model support, and clearer troubleshooting to make Movie Uploader a dependable tool.

Pros

Transfers video from Canon camcorder to the iOS device (core function).
Allows uploading to the phone and sharing to YouTube or Facebook when a connection is established.
Can work in some setups when the camera's Wi‑Fi and connection steps are followed (e.g., camera mode alignment).

Cons

Frequently cannot connect to or recognize cameras, making the app unreliable.
Not compatible with newer Canon models (e.g., HF R80/R82), leading to failed use on recent devices.
Transfers are unreliable and may stall or fail without explanation, with no progress indicator.
Limited to transferring one clip at a time and can be slow for long videos.
Documentation and support are poor or outdated, with little guidance or contact options.

2020-04-22	He*****	There is no way to get this app to connect a phone to a Canon Legria. It would be easier and less frustrating to try and get a cinder block to wirelessly connect to a bowl of Frosted Flakes.
