  1. ★★★★★ Simi Tj · 5 Oct 2026 · v3.5.30.22
    very good
  2. ★☆☆☆☆ Douglas Campbell · 5 Oct 2026
    I had been using this app for downloading images from my Powershot N but recently it has been dysfunctional. While the app can be downloaded onto the android device when you try and connect to the camera, the app just starts flashing and there is no way out of that. I have removed and reloaded the app, to no avail. I have also done all the suggested fixes I can find on-line to no avail. Now have to resort to off loading to pc from the micro sd which is not so handy on the move.

  4. ★☆☆☆☆ Chad Tussing · 4 Oct 2026
    I've been using this app for a long time to download photos from my camera to my phone. It used to be very easy & convenient. Not anymore. I've deleted the app because it will no longer connect to my camera. Such a handy app ruined by too many updates and "improvements."

  7. ★★☆☆☆ Patrik Ahvenainen · 4 Oct 2026 · v3.4.0.8
    Camera connection requires Wi-Fi connection to camera, using the app requires disabling said connection first.
