Re: WiFi feature: Copying from camera to phone

Yep, I use the Samsung smart camera app as seen here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/samsung-smart-camera-app/id592062781?mt=8

Edit:

To be specific, this is what happens:

  1. Put the camera on 'WiFi'
  2. Select "Mobile Link"
  3. Connect phone to camera wifi
  4. Open Samsung Smart Camera App
  5. Wait for them to link
  6. Select a JPG from the camera and hit send
  7. Camera screen changes to the "sending file" screen, while simultaneously, the phone app crashes
  8. After maybe 15s, the camera screen changes to "closing" then it goes back to the 'WiFi' screen

The "Remote Viewfinder" feature works just fine. I can use my phone to connect and take pictures. It can also save a copy of the photo in both the camera and the phone (although the phone version is a LOT smaller than photos taken by the phone's camera, as I mentioned in the OP). The timer also doesn't work.

Edit:

Just tested using a co-worker's Android phone. Photo was sent successfully Is this an iOS problem? The NX300 manual from the Samsung website includes instructions for iOS so I'm assuming that they are supposed to work. Pages 129-130:http://imgur.com/a/idGC7#0
