In this quick tip, we walk you through how to connect your Canon camera to the Canon Camera Connect app—so you can transfer images, shoot remotely, and even geotag your photos straight from your smartphone.
Starting with downloading the app, we guide you step-by-step:
First, install the Canon Camera Connect app from Google Play or the App Store.
- Open the app, skip the intro if you like, and register your camera.
- Search for your model, select a connection method (we recommend Bluetooth for ease), and turn on Wi-Fi or Bluetooth on your phone.
- On your camera, press the Menu button and follow the in-app prompts to complete setup.
- Set a camera nickname to make reconnecting simple in the future.
- Then, connect your phone to your camera’s network and confirm the pairing on both devices.
Before long, you’ll be viewing, sharing, and even controlling your Canon camera—all from the palm of your hand.
