I feel sorry for the guy who made this app, he lost hes hands thats why there is no update. He cant answer people without hes hands. Im sorry for ur handycap, maybe we all can make a small donation.
I'd like to find a better program than PMM5.7 (since 5.8 is terrible!) I found an OLD version of Camera360.. but this won't even connect.. and the camera is right next to it. both PMM and C360 work. If it worked ..I'd be the first to applaud it
Won't connect to QX10 with Nexus 6P
Just stick to using memories app
Interval timer works well and was a feature missing on the sony app so this adds functionality.
Not working with QX30 & android 4.4.2 :-(
It's an app
Connects to QX100
Please add voice command to take a picture, some of us really need it. Great app as soon as I realized I had to manually set my phone's wifi connection to the camera's own network before trying to connect to the app.
This will definitely be a 5 star app with some fine tuning... Great start!
As much as I hope and appreciate someone would make use of the API and develop for Sony cameras especially the QX series, I must say that I'm disappointed with the apps' quality. This app is not functional for me (pairing Android 5.1.1 with QX100), which is even worse than the occasional disconnections on the official PlayMemories Mobile app. I had high hopes when I saw this along with the SmartWatch App. An extra star for the effort and attempt.
Please add the ability to store a 2mp image on the phone automatically in the same way as the play memories app allows. The really great thing about this app is it allows you to use a bluetooth selfie stick button to fire the shutter as the phone volume control acts as a shutter button, this is more than the play memories app can do.
