    Help!! I'm having trouble getting my iphone 8 connected to my 5D Mk4 to transfer images from the camera to the phone. I paired the two a while ago. My phone pics up and connects to the Camera wifi. When I open the Canon Connect App it says 'Camera not Connected'. The Easy Connection Guide ( Huh!! ) seems to take me round in circles and I never get past the app's home screen. ( I deleted and re-installed the app as a just in case but its still doing the same thing. ). On the camera in the menu ( Communication settings - Built-in Wireless settings - Send Images to Smartphone ) it says "Not connected to Smartphone - connect before choosing this option".AkinatorXender Kik

    I have a G7x mark 1 and and iPhone SE running iOS 12.1.4. Camera Connect has been working fine for at least a year but has now stopped working (possibly with the latest iPhone OS upgrade). Now the iPhone recognises the camera WiFi in settings but the camera will not find the iPhone. I have been through the business of deleting the app, rebooting the phone and reinstalling the app (2.0.0) and also 'resetting' the WiFi on the camera it still will not connect. Help please. This has been a very useful app and I am dismayed that it now does not work.

    Maybe Canon need to release an update for their app to work with the latest version of iOS. Can only suggest contacting Canon and asking them the question.
