Geotagging needs WORK!

Much improved over old app; pairing works fine now and firmware updates are easy and convenient. The big disappointment to me is the geotagging. As soon as either camera or iPhone goes to sleep the location is no longer updated. I use a third-party app on my iPhone that can track my location all day without depleting the battery. I then need to run a desktop version of the app to match location data with photos (using the time the image was taken). I was hoping I could do with this software with the new app; sadly, this is not the case. Seems easy enough to do compared to some other things the app gets right. Tagging images with the last location available (as opposed to the correct one) seems a very poor software design choice..

V1.1.0 still not reconnecting Bluetooth while in the background

Update: Developer is asking me for “details” by filling up a blank form on their site. I feel this is like additional insult to injury. The details are here in my review below. My iPhone is 13Pro with IOS 16.6 and my camera is an X-T30 using firmware 2.0. There is no more details about this issue I have described when you released the app few months ago and the issue is still present after 1.1.0. ————— I was hopeful that this new update 1.1.0 would finally fix the big issue of the app not reconnecting with the camera via Bluetooth after the camera is turn off and then on (like when in power savings) and the app in the phone is in the background (like when the phone is in my pocket), so geo tagging will continue to work at all times when I am out taking pictures. Unfortunately, the issue remains and the app is still not reconnecting automatically while in the background. The only way to reconnect is to either bring the app to the foreground (this method always works) or go to the Bluetooth settings in the iPhone (this method works, sometimes) but taking the iPhone to reconnect every time the camera is turn off and on again is not practical. Come on Fujifilm! Fix this issue so geotagging can be useable. It has been over 3 months since you release this app.

Fujifilm is finally in the modern era

This app is such an upgrade for us that have current fujifilm cameras, especially compared to the old app. The design is modern, ux is solid, and the connection and transfer of photos from your camera is quicker and more stable.Two things I’d like to see in future updates:1.) Landscape orientation support on iPads. I primarily use my iPad attached to a keyboard, it would be great to support that.2.) Customizable camera photos so that you can pick the camera color that matches your camera. It’s funny to log in to the app and see a camera that it claims is mine, that doesn’t look like mine. Small piece of customization that might go a long way.

Great app design, but disregard user’s privacy

1 star because it required user to not only set app location sharing to always, but also need to share precise location. While I understand the possible benefits might include to document where the photo is taken in metadata, I don’t see any other reasons why I need to set share location to always. To me, this app is currently unusable until this is fixed. Not to mention, this is a clear violation to the App Review Guideline. 5.1.1 Data Collection and Storage (iv) Access: Apps must respect the user’s permission settings and not attempt to manipulate, trick, or force people to consent to unnecessary data access. For example, apps that include the ability to post photos to a social network must not also require microphone access before allowing the user to upload photos. Where possible, provide alternative solutions for users who don’t grant consent. For example, if a user declines to share Location, offer the ability to manually enter an address.

Stopped working

After using this app for a few days it now only downloads an image at two before it just stops and gives me a spinning circle. And it seems that the firmware update to the X-T3 may have made it so the old camera remote app no longer works. So now I am unable to load images onto my iPad. This is awful. I watched the app gradually slow down after downloading a number of images and now it’s one or two and freeze. I have to force stop the app, turn off my camera and remove the battery to unfreeze everything. Then I can start over and download one or two more images before it happens again.Update: I think the reason it stopped working was because my iPad was warning me that the app was requiring full time location tracking. I had to confirm that I was aware of it before the app would download pictures properly. This is garbage. I think I will be getting an SD card reader.Based on the majority of the reviews, this was a horrible decision by Fujifilm. At a minimum I will have to turn location tracking on to download images and back off when done.

I wanted to like this app

This new app looks nicer than the old one. Unfortunately I can’t say much else that is positive…-every time I connect my camera, it “synchronizes” the time setting on my camera to 25 hours into the future. Unhelpful, to say the least. -trying to use the location synchronization, you have to keep the app open on the screen for it to initiate the connection. Every five minutes, you have to reopen the app and reconnect, or the photos aren’t tagged with a location. Unhelpful, to say the least. -and can we talk about Privacy? This app is a bully! It will not function in any way without far more permissions than I care to give. I don’t want notifications from this app, but it will not connect to my camera without notification permissions. I don’t want it looking through my iOS camera roll, but it won’t function without access to “all photos,” even those not taken on my Fuji camera. I don’t want the app recording my location when I’m not using it, but if I don’t say “always allow” and “precise location” it won’t even connect to the camera. With this behavior, I’m surprised it can even be offered on the App Store! I think this is against their policies.I’ll be waiting for the third iteration of a Fuji app: one that respects my privacy, automatically connects to my camera without me having to open the app every few minutes, and one that doesn’t mess up the time settings on my camera every time I use it!

A much needed improvement over the old app

I’m so happy Fuji finally did something about their app issue. The old app, Fujifilm Camera Remote, was terrible — it hardly ever worked and was clunky/a nuisance to use. From my first impressions of this app after connecting and using my Xt5 and x100v, everything has worked flawlessly. It’s quick to setup Bluetooth and connect the cameras, and photos transfer quickly. Also able to use this as a remote for your camera which is a nice option too. One addition I’d like to see is more camera specific info such as total shutter count and battery health.

Sweet happy day, finally a working app!

If you have been a Fujifilm X Series user for a while, you are no doubt familiar with the TERRIBLE and frustrating remote image capture app. I think it currently sits with a 1 star rating in the App Store. I used that abomination of an app for the final time today to upgrade the firmware on my camera to 3.0, which unsurprisingly took six or seven tries before successfully upgrading. After throwing that all consuming piece of garbage in the figurative trash can, I opened this new Fujifilm X app and it is superb. The remote image capture is almost completely lag free, it is the most responsive remote image capture I’ve used through any platform actually. I was very impressed. You can finally choose image import size when storing them on your device. The geotagging system works very well. All in all it’s a huge breath of fresh air for Fuji.

App works, give us a darkmode please.

Never understood the negative reviews about connectivity issues; this and the old app has never given me problems. What I don’t like is the fact that I MUST give the app my PRECISE location ALWAYS, just in order to use it. It makes no sense to me and is pretty irritating, given I don’t care to utilize any location syncing and if I did… why can’t I just give the general location? Anyway… All I want is to transfer photos from camera to phone, I don’t care about all these extra invasive features. And I say invasive because it’s mandatory to have my location being tracked in order to use the app. That’s ridiculous to me. Also, if we could have a darkmode option, the app would be much better to use at night, and be more appealing in general for people like me that prefer dark mode as their system setting.

It works well

It works well, but I still feel like there is a lot of opportunity for improvement. There are a few little weird things that it still does and I’m not fully convinced. ——-there does not need to be a whole tab for “support.” Just put it in the settings. ——-I don’t think that the auto upload is not working right. ——-the timeline is not really all that compelling and I feel like there is some unnecessary information in there. ——-I wonder if there is a way they can start playing into the “recipe” stuff.The timeline has a weird design flaw where the stuff in the timeline bumps up to the top app bar and touches it. There should be some padding there.
