Why don’t they just buy Sony’s software? – SnapBridge Review

As someone who owns a Sony 6300 and a Nikon D850, I am astonished at how much better the Sony software is. Getting the Nikon software to connect to the camera takes multiple steps, and it can fail at any point. No connection at all, connect, but unable to turn on WiFi, unable to download thumbnails, and unable to download photos even after you have gone through the effort of all the preceding steps and selected photos. I have never gotten the download in the background to work, even though it drains the camera’s battery (now, I just turn it off). Selecting the photos one-at-a-time is insane. How come I can’t say "download today’s photos"? And why are my only choices 2 Mb files or original size. I’ve never gotten original size to work, so I’ve given up on that too. But I’d like a 5Mb option too. Finally, the Sony worked so well that I could be at the ballpark, take a photo with the camera, and upload and tweet it in a minute. RELIABLY. The Nikon can be counted on to take 15 minutes of effort, and then not work anyway. This software is an embarrassment.
