Chrome is one of the first things I disable on my Android devices, and I hate the idea of signing up for any accounts just to access local files.

But Canon welcomed me with a big surprise, and a fuck you, too!

There seems to be a common thread amongst all the Japanese camera manufacturers that their software is all "this must be done in exactly this (often convoluted) way".

I'm convinced that they put their hardware engineers in charge of writing the software.

Not to defend Canon but can you not just use USB or transfer via SD Card? Just asking because I just got an EOS RP.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (2 children)

The app was used for live view and also geotagging, in addition to file transfer. So this requirement affects several features.

For what it's worth, you can generally record a GPS tracking in another app or on another device and then use your photo editing software to add the coordinates to the photos after the fact.

Alright well I need Geotagging so guess I'll have to sign up. I completely forgot how shitty Canon were because I got massive tunnel vision while searching for a camera to buy...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Some other users pointed out that you can stay on an older version before the signup requirement and it will continue to work fine even without an internet connection. That's what I'm going to do.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

So to get Geotagging I need the camera to be connected to the phone on the latest firmware?

They've really gone downhill since the AE-1.

Can you not just transfer via usb drive connection?

Dude. I needed to use this app the other day for the remote shutter function, and I was somewhere with no signal and no internet. Only to discover that the app had updated and now required me to create an account to use it. I was pissed.

Same thing!! It sure steamed my broccoli.

magiclantern.

Jailbreak your shit. You own it don't you?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (7 children)

Jailbreaking locks you out of banking apps.

Edit: jailbreaking your phone might lock you out of banking apps.

Jailbreaking your camera does NOT.

Magic Lantern is awesome!

Unfortunately, it's for higher-end cameras, not my old point-and-shoot cameras. And it doesn't magically give your device GPS for geotagging images :(

The app was fine. The enshittification of the app is not.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Can you not just find and use an old version and disable updates for it?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Yes, another user already confirmed that the old version still works. I've done the same with the old GoPro app.

EDIT: but old versions have built-in planned obsolescence, because they won't support newer devices (both cameras or smartphones) for very long. My Samsung 360 camera was rendered useless once they discontinued app support.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I have an old Gear VR and a Samsung S3. I don't believe there is any way to use it today. It wants to connect to Facebook to log in, but their auth token has expired.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

It wants to connect to Facebook to log in

What a fucking cancer of integration.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You actually can still use it, there's some folks on reddit trying their best to keep it going. App support is very poor though.
