OLYMPUS Image Share App Reviews

Disappointed

It doesnt work on my OMD EM5 MK2. It connects to my phone, but does not transfer files and does not work for shooting remotely.

Not possible to focus for video

Its not possible to focus during remote video. This makes it complete useless for video imo!

Useful app but...

... not fully adopted to iOS 10, i.e. Multitasking on supported devices and not adopted to iPad Pro screen sizes.

Profile not signed

whenever trying to install profile TG-4-P-BHG.... it says <profile not signed.

Still very poor app

The entire implementation of wifi and image share is very poor. It is so frustrating to use. From having to use two different menus on the camera to start the connection to the clunky interface, it is so aggravating, I just do it the old way and use a computer and card reader to transfer images. Seriously, why can I do more with images on my iPhone, and in a simpler way, than I can with an expensive Olympus camera body? It only has to do one thing!

Cool tech

While I wish there wasnt the need to first set the camera up to broadcast then connect with the phone, once connected, the system works flawlessly. Very near tech!

Keep disconnecting

Its very annoying. When I connected to my ep5 from iPhone 6s and used remote control, its just keep fail to communicate with camera, even just 1-5m distances. You should fix it ASAP

Needs update

Ever since iOS went to version 10, the app would always "fail" to import photos from my OMD EM-5 mk ii. Please update the app... otherwise its good to have

Why?

Why this app doesnt work? Why? F**k!

Most important feature needs help

Importing photos seems like the most important feature when using a camera. Unfortunately, the import function does not recognize previously imported photos. Each import duplicates existing images and re-imports ALL images. The app should recognize previously imported photos and skip those already on the phone. The rest of the app is pretty cool, the remote function is great, lots of fun.

Image import no longer works.

My importer only shows one video, even though I have several hundred raw .ORF files on the camera.

Installation and Documentation are Crap

Thank god for other peoples blogs. The user instructions and menus are complete crap. My profile still has the error "Profile not signed" but I did get it to work, sort of. It still randomly disconnects.

Does not work on my E-P5

As noted above, Olympuss instructions are very poor at guiding you through the process. I did this 3 times, tried downloading the app again, upgraded firmware, and wiped my network settings and restarted. My iPhone 6s+ latest iOS says its connected and the camera shows the appropriate icon for connected BUT THE APP SAYS IT CANT FIND A CAMERA.

Bring remote control for Apple watch, please

The design of the app is poor, but at least the functionality is OKish. The app could bring a great value for the OMD - great quality build, cool design and performance camera. Why is the app different? Please upgrade and bring remote control for the apple watch. Thanx

Needs ability to delete photos and prevent duplicate downloads

Two things that really would help make this a better app. 1. When reviewing photos for import, you should add an option to delete photos from the camera. It would be a very simple way to cull the shots I dont use. Considering I now shoot with a 64GB card, this feature would make a huge difference. 2. When importing, should I inadvertently try to import the same image to a particular device twice or more, it should prompt me that Im duplicating a download. Thanks in advance for these improvements.

Photo importing doesnt work

All of a sudden, photo import only shows a portion of the photo/video in my EM1. The app developer might have broken something. Hope itll be fixed in next update.

Wont stay connected to camera

I have an Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II that I have attempted to use with this app. Sometimes I am able to establish a comment to the camera; often I cant. And even when I do establish a connection, it will fail after a few seconds. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I have tried removing and reinstalling the WiFi profile. I have tried turning WiFi off and on again on the camera and then reconnecting again from the phone. None of these troubleshooting steps are successful it allowing to reliably connect and remain connected.

doesnt work half the time

Please fix this

Fix it already

Piece of s***. Works once a month, when blue moon is there. And that in the age of Instagram...

Worthless
