Toshiba FlashAir Card in E-PM2 and Olympus OI.Share iOS app.

I have also experienced a few of various challenges when connecting to a FlashAir card although as mentioned above it was far less frustrating than EyeFi ever was (for those who are interested: eyefi is by far the most ridiculous wifi solution to people who only want to send one two photos from the camera to the phone or tablet. Why? Becaus eyefi mobi wants to send them all (oldest first mind you), unless you mark them with write protect button. Than you have to quickly fo to the menu to swich of eye-fi to prevent the oldest one to be copied as well. Ooooohhh boy what i time consuming work around.

Anyway back to Toshiba, I had issues connection to my camera for the reasons unknown to me, about 7 out of 10 times it failed to connect. It may be down to camera's metal body that serves as a faraday cage around the wifi card. Other issues I've experienced when I was trying to connect to the card at home where I have my wifi network set up ready. The phone always connected to home network instead of the FlashAir as soon as I switch on the wifi (it probably depends on the strength of the signal so I had to switch of my router off or select to forget it in my phone setting in order to establish the connection between my camera and mobile phone. It's was too very frustrating and honestly slower than taking the card out and getting the pictures old fashion way. But hey for those times out and about far far away from my home network I hope my Toshiba will surprise me and give me reason not to hate this overpriced 32gb 10 class sd card (which when I've checked was only 8.5kbps)...
