Inconsistent and touchy

This app worked ok until I upgraded to a iPhone 8 Plus, which I have never been able to connect. Also will not connect to iPad Plus. No support available after weeks of trying to work with Canon’s website, I switched back to using an older iPad to connect.
Garbage

Have two 5D4s and an iPhone X and still can’t connect. I’m very skilled with tech yet can’t figure it out. Typical Japanese garbage software.
Awesome but needs improvement please!!

Which is rarely... Let me start my saying, I have a strong, clean WiFi network Getting it to connect to my EOS 80D is hot or miss. It may connect on the on the 10th attempt. It may not. It never connects on the first. The only thing worse than trying to get it connected is keeping it connected. I have never explicitly disconnected as it always disconnects in its own. The connection may last 1 minute or 10, but it never stays connected. These problems are true for both iPhone & iPad versions.
Canon should hire a pro to design their app

App is very amateur. Why prompt to turn on Bluetooth with EVERY USE when your camera only supports wifi? GPS Location tagging is broken for EOS Rebel T6, and tech support confirmed. Canon seems far behind the social media tech age, where you can communicate so easily between cheap smart devices ($5 Bluetooth headphones). This app, however, requires you to disconnect your phone from wifi internet in order to connect to the camera. It doesn't simply pair. It requires a 3 minute process every time you want to connect, using multiple menu selections on both camera and phone every time just to sync. For cameras that supposedly handle uploading GPS, it isn't smart enough to grab GPS only when you take a picture, but instead keeps your phone's GPS ON every second, logging your entire trip, and then later it will check the time you took the picture and match it with your travel records. I'm really surprised it doesn't just automatically pair when near your iPhone (like a set of headphones) and request GPS info as needed. Why not partner with Apple and Android to become part of the digital future?
Ridiculous updates-terrible

Previously could elph to ipad and iphone, now nothing. Tried all the trouble shooting tips-no can do. I've other reviews that indicate that they cannot connect. The app should be called canon discoonect.
needs improvement connecting

I have completely set up my camera to my iPhone, but only sometimes does it connect. I have no idea what the problem is. I open the app, try and connect to my phone, and only SOMETIMES it works, it usually said it could not find anything. It’s very frustrating and kind of disappointing. Please fix.
A Disaster

Flawed is being charitable. This current version works only periodically. On a personal shoot last weeked, the app worked in downloading my images to an iPad, enabling me to do a rough edit & send them to Cloud storage quickly. Last night, I had a paid shoot, one where I needed to send the images to a Client quickly. The app refused to recognize the tablet or my laptop. This has happened several other times. Until Canon can issue a fix this app is useless.
