Ratings and Reviews
Slow and buggy on iPhone 4
Sounds like a great idea, but just doesn’t work for me. I have a Panasonic G6 camera and an iPhone 4. I can occasionally see the shutter icon ‘glowing’ and ready to work. No other control icons appear. When the shutter icon is available, it will take a photo, but then say “Please wait…” for a very long time, like until I restart the app!
Not worth having at the moment
Intuitive = no
A bit tough to use. Wifi seems to drop out and sometimes work but sometimes does not. I expected a more robust app. Given it is for a relatively modern camera, having no app update for a year when the app does not work that well is instructive of the importance that Panasonic holds the app.
Please update and make it better else we'll abandon these cameras.
Doesn't work
App does not work. Installed the app on my iphone 6 and when I go to connect to my FZ300 the camera says "Smartphone app needs to be updated". I have the latest version installed so there is nothing to update it with.
