How to connect

Four ways to connect. The systems each one works on are listed next to it. Connecting always starts when you pick a method and press the button. The app never connects to a device on its own.

Free
Wi-Fi (the camera's access point)macOS / iOS / iPadOSJoin the Wi-Fi network the camera creates. No cable, no separate network. While joined, that device has no internet.
Pro
USB-CmacOS / iOS / iPadOSConnect the camera to your device with a cable. Fastest and most stable. What to set on the camera depends on the model (Connecting by camera).
Pro
Wi-Fi (FTP)macOS / iOS / iPadOSThe app listens as an FTP server and the camera sends directly. You stay on the same network, so you keep your internet.
Pro
LANmacOS / iOSThe app connects to cameras on the same network. You keep your internet, and you can connect up to 3 cameras at once. What you do on the camera depends on the model (Connecting by camera).
Cameras verified on real hardware
Sony α7R V (ILCE-7RM5, firmware v2.01) / Canon EOS R8 (firmware 3-1.4.0). More cameras will follow — we only list what we have verified ourselves.

About bursts on Free

On Free, only bursts are slowed down. Single shots arrive as fast as they do on Pro.
On Free, the only way to connect is Wi-Fi (the camera's access point) — see Pricing.

Single shots are not limitedShooting up to one frame every 2 seconds, each arrives right away — the same speed as Pro.
The first 5 of a burst arrive at onceAfter that they come in at one every 2 seconds. It never stops.
Everything you shot arrivesNothing is dropped or skipped. No gaps. It takes longer, but the last frame still arrives.

If you only burst now and then, Free is fine

The gap between bursts is enough to catch up. A 5-shot burst every 30 seconds arrives right away, even on Free. The difference only shows when you keep the burst running.
