An 3rd rate attempt to obtain users data

This app is required to download & remote control a number of the newer Sony Cameras.
Sony would like access to your location, media, usage and device information. Don’t grant this and you get very frequent pop up errors. They want this for marketing and research.
Camera connection via Bluetooth didn’t work, didn’t show why it wasn’t working, or even that a Bluetooth connection had been established. Wifi functional, but neither intuitive nor well implemented.
‘Social media’ component exists- you too could be a superstar on a platform that’s never likely to go anywhere or be anything.
Cloud storage sounds tempting- but given how poorly the rest of the app functions I’d be very cautious putting anything of value on the cloud. Oh and probably worth checking that cloud stored data is secure, not used for marketing or research.

Turn off notifications and Always On GPS

Sony really know how to abuse notifications, I’ve had nearly a dozen useless badges and messages this month alone, and the month isn’t over yet. And why does it keep polling my location even when the app has not been used for a long time?

I really only wanted this app for GPS tags and connectivity, but it does neither well. You have to remember to open the app and “connect” to the camera EVERY TIME before GPS tags are recorded, so it’s 95% useless.

Trying to get images from the camera to your phone is a big guessing game. I specified Bluetooth, but it insists on creating a local wireless network over wifi, and you are never really sure how, or even if, you are connected to the camera.

The Creator “features” are no more than a cloud storage upsell, and the UI just smacks of generic low effort. Where is the value in sharing to a cloud platform that nobody else uses? I would like Sony to focus on making complicated things (like connectivity) more simplified, and stop wasting effort and UI real estate on a cloud platform that nobody asked for.

The opposite of user friendly

I love Sony cameras but it’s like another company writes the worst possible apps to do the most simple things like transfering a photo to your phone. Every single Sony camera app over the last decade is/was a flaky complex jumble that often eventually fails to do the basics at all. To top it off the apps regularly disappear into the ether to be replaced by something worst.
