Review summary

User feedback centers on reliability and billing issues. Many report unstable connections, downloads that won’t resume, and slow transfers. Pricing confusion and unexpected charges are repeatedly cited, with several claims of misleading one-time-purchase promises. Camera compatibility and setup are frequently problematic, and free usage is limited, prompting upgrade. A minority find the app easy to use or convenient when it functions properly, but overall reliability and billing concerns dominate the reviews.

Pros

Easy to use interface (noted by users when it works).
When it works, the app is convenient for transferring photos from camera to phone.
In some cases, transferring photos can start quickly once setup is complete.

Cons

Unstable connectivity and frequent interruptions; downloads stop if the app is closed and often cannot resume.
Slow transfer speeds and long wait times for downloading photos/videos; manual steps are common.
Confusing and potentially misleading pricing; expectations of a one-time purchase clash with trial notices and recurring charges.
Camera connection/setup issues; users report difficulty pairing with various cameras and unclear or ineffective setup Instructions.
Free tier limitations push users to upgrade to pro, including transfer limits and paid downloads.

2026-07-08	tu*****	Not much else to say- I downloaded, registered, it wouldn’t connect- i was prompted to spend $10 and I figured that was the problem- I wasted hours of my life trying to get trapped photos from my camera- it’s bed time

2026-05-18	Tr*****	Update: I didn't realize this was 3rd party garbage, the official app for Sony is not this app, this is someone wanting to try to make money providing something you can get for free - that actually works a d handles batch for free. ---- Can't get it to connect... I can connect the network manually, camera says "sharing" after the connecting.. So network is connected App returns to the previous screen, or more specifically, clicking connect to X, where X is my camera name shows a waiting icon for about 1 second or less and returns to the menu... Went through all their suggestions in the user manual.. 0 stars, and when I started it, the screen prompted me for said and password, without telling me my camera needs me to hit the trash can icon to get there... Or have any button for help there.. UI 1 of 5 stars Functionally compared to previous version: 0 of 5 stars I guess I could delete it... Upgrade to "pro"? ROFLMO... There didn't use to be any reason to upgrade anything... It just transfers photos to your phone... So Un-Sony!! Pro version rolls you back to what I HAD WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAMERA!!! Allowing batch transfer... I suppose I can't say transfer all with today's date??? Worthless garbage.... Money, money, money!!!! Gimme, gimme, gimme! (Yeah, two ABBA songs)

2026-04-05	pu*****	The connection isn’t stable all the time and once the app is closed the download will stop and won’t able to resume even open the app back up. It’s a pain to transfer the photos from the camera to the phone. It works on a good day or you’re only doing less than 5 photos at a time.
