DSLR Controller

Really good , just two things that Im not happy with , why are miliseconds used to calculate the time in the "Bulb" setting , its very easy to add or leave out a zero.! The other thing is in timelapse , the + and - on either side of the screen are mirror image , very difficult to get used to , it seems like it was done more for estetics than functionally ! But otherwise a very good app and well worth the money.

I bought this app a few years ago to use with an old Canon t3i (with a TP-Link MR3040 for wifi). I have to say it gives terrific freedom being able to sit in the cool inside air and snap pictures with the phone when my camera is set to shoot wildlife outside. As an fyi, this may have something to do with my Android version, but recently I'd been having a real issue getting the app to fully connect to the camera. It would say it saw a camera but would not connect. After hours spent experimenting, I found it was the phone connecting to the the tp-link that had an odd glitch. Because the tp-link wifi connection does not actually give internet access, the phone would connect fine but then after a few seconds it would give a pop-up saying the connection had no internet access. The problem was I had to click "YES" to close that pop-up! If I simply went on into the app it would never finally connect to the camera. All the times I ignored it and it went away by itself, it wouldn't connect. So, clicking "yes" on the pop-up makes it work now every time. (Note: clicking the check box in the pop-up will avoid all this! :)

I love this app. The main thing in connecting the camera to the phone is to have good cable otherwise I'd won't work properly. It's lacking some features like adding a lut on the video to see how the video should look. And I thing the app should get redesign to a more modern style because it looks really old, like an Android 4 theme. I mainly use it with my 77D for focus peaking, it runs without problem until the cable disconnects. But overall good app!! Nice work.

i LOVED this software, i think its the most useful and best app on the entire google play. in the past 10 months it started having intermittent connection problems with a 7D and then stopped seeing the camera altogether. i replaced cables, tried older phones, same thing. i thought maybe its a port on the camera but then it works perfectly connected to a laptop. 6D mkii has same issues, cant see on USB, wifi conects only the first time and never reconnects. its a shame as canon's original connect is garbage, and this was THE solution, i would actually pay 10x the price for this software if it worked the way it used to about a year ago. to the developer: if you have a way to contact me for specifics, i'll be happy to provide any details you might require.

So far, this app is working great for me. I'm running it on a Fusion5 104Bv2+ tablet (which Amazon had on sale at the time for less than $90). I have it connected to my Canon EOS 60D. It allows me to control the camera in all of it's various modes (Aperture priority, Shutter priority, Manual, etc,). The app also provides the necessary controls to focus the lens. For me, all this functionality is well worth the purchase price.

Really like this app! the only thing I would suggest is it needs a trial or free version ........ when I first paid for it, I couldn't get it to connect, so I refunded it ........ after trying others I didn't like, I looked up vids on troubleshooting the connection, re-purchased it and figured it out. would have been nice to had time to figure it out the first time, then purchased it.

This app seems to work pretty well I like its features and I like how it's very easy to use. The only problem I have is with the + and - time lapse feature on the aperture button is backwards. The plus is minus and minus is Plus. Please fix this I really like this app but it makes for mistakes when trying to do a time-lapse.

Connecting to wifi is based on luck. You either get "cannot find a compatible camera" or "Found a camera but cannot establish connection". Also, if you have other wifi controllers connected to the camera, even if the "set" is different [for Canon], you will not be able to connect to this app. You have to delete all other wifi controller settings. If somehow you manage to connect through wifi, it is laggy and unstable. And it doesn't have the sound level function. If you use USB, you can't charge

BAD: Major flaw in the development of this app, hope developers can fix it: In the night mode, when I go to do "timed shot", click to set the exposure time, the phone screen is no longer red, it brings up the key board and full bright white light display. Some times, say when I set a timed shot of 10000 microseconds, the countdown clock stops but it does not proceed any further as if the app has frozen. Camera's red busy indicator light goes off. I have to end the shot and start over. Other than that it works great.

Unusable on newer devices, it works better with my eos r on an old s9 compared to my new s22. I'd give 1 star but there was a time when this app was amazing and almost fully functional. If only they'd go back to updating it, I too would pay a bit more for the features and control via usb.

Astro- set android magnification to ON in accessibility-gives around 30x mag for focusung on stars. Works on Canon6D usb but cannot get it to work on wireless. Overall quite good. Connection is clunky at times and hav to restart cam or app to connect a few times. Improvements that would be great : When take a shot, the time taken to load that shot and view it, is 4 seconds. Would be great if you could speed that up. Be great to add brightness boost to liveview for very low light composing

Can't give it less than 5 stars. Works great, just like having the lcd of my camera on my tablet. Tried Canon Connect and found it clumbsy. Update. This app has been abandoned and is no longer receiving updates. Still works with my Canon 80d and an old Samsung tablet running Android 4.4 (kitkat). Someday I may have to try Canon Connect again but not looking forward to it

Got it working after 15 minutes of playing with it but can't get it reliably to connect (direct wifi on 70D), had to reconnect it 3 times just trying to test talking pictures with it. Also the app goes full black screen sometimes without any loading slider or anything so you have no idea what is happening. And since last update was in 2017, I don't think there are going to be any fixes or improvement.

It's working well with my OnePlus 8 pro running Android 11 and my Canon 70D. WiFi works in the same way as the canon camera connect app. Wired usb connection via OTG cable is even better, much faster, better resolution in the image preview.

This app doesn't work properly with my 5D mk iv although it is specifically stated it should. Ive tried with multiple adapters, cables and phones but it keeps dropping out and the timelapse function just straight up doesnt work. It glitches out when i try use it in wifi mode as well. I sent an email to the developers but didn't recieve any response...

I've given this app a 3/5 rating because it has not been updated in almost 3.5 years. I'm using a phone with Android 10 and, since this app has not been updated, it tends to be unreliable. That's disappointing, because it added so much functionality and did so reliably. These days, it functions correctly in an irregular manner. I'm thinking of getting another app and uninstalling this one.

It's a probabilistics game to connect to the camera after you made a propper connection to it. With my 6d I can connect to the app only when Im playing with the camera and don't need it and when I do need the wireless connection... guess what, it does not work. On the chance that it does connect when you need it, it crashes after one photo taken.

Excellent, just what I needed to drive my 550D from my phone. Great flexibility and control, allows me to see what the camera sees, even if it's at a low angle. (The 550D does not have a flip out viewscreen).

Make sure your device is compatible! I read all the devices "compatible" with this app, and it said my device (samsung galaxy tab 4) would work. However, DSLR Controller's website wasn't very specific, because apparently only the LTE model of this tablet was compatible. This is not necessarily on them, but research about your device compatibility before wasting $8 like I did.

This app is out of date!! This app was last updated in 2017. Subsequent releases of Android and upgrades to WIFI standards will render parts of this app useless. Just paid for this app £7.99 ON (9/3/2019) to realise that a message pops up when running to warn it might not work with my version of android (ver 9) on my note 9. Problems already, it cant see my camera via WIFI.

I've been using this app for almost 8 years on Samsung Note devices and it has worked great. I'v done everything from studio shoots, video interviews and even Milkyway Shots with it. You really get full control of your camera and it even has a timelaps feature. I use Canon 5d MkIII, 6d, 7d, 5d Mkii. It really should be at the top of the list. Even Canon's apps don't work this well. Totally worth the cost. As a designer I could only suggest an interface update. Would love to help with that.

Worked with occasional problems connecting to my Canon 6D when I first got the app. For whatever reason, it just won't find the camera at all anymore; the lame canon app finds the camera quickly every time. TL;DR- doesn't work at all any more, unusable.

It's not working for canon 200D. It's showing error in camera. If it connects to the phone it works, but ones I disconnect I have to start the connect process from begining again.i.e removing the app profile from camera and again establishing it. I connect it using WiFi in EOS utility mode. Before buying the app I used the compactibility tester for this app. That showed that it will work. So I bought the app. But now m getting a lot of problems and errors.

Not working! Installed but failed to see my Nikon d810 via tl-3040. other free app conected successfully. this is not functional on any of the following devices: galaxy tab note 10.1 2014, one plus 3t(android 8), and Nokia 6(android 9). After 3 hours of settings the best I could get was to download pics from the camera to the tablet. However, no controls, live view or other options could be available using this app. Same issues via USB. Poor support over the email, the only option to contact.

was a great app . didn't mind paying for it as it was so good.. but since the last android update it's been rendered useless as I can't transfer images to my Samsung s9 it just crashes.. gutted as there is no other app I can find to transfer by USB as my camera isn't wifi

is this an app from 2008 where Android was introduced? For nearly 10 quid you'd expect something a bit modern that is nice to work with and supports Android standards and leverages public APIs! The transfer of images is such a pain. There are ways, but please, get this app a 2019 refreshment, it really needs it!
