Re: NX Mini and Wi-Fi / Android compatibility?

When my phone (Xiaomi A1) upgraded to Pie the app stopped to work. Now I tried again (android pie, march 5 security update) disabling bluetooth and mobile data first, the phone saw the camera but did not connect.

Then I tried setting up a pin on the camera, the phone asked for it and connected, but froze after taking a shot.

I tried manual connection and it worked, I could take a few shots. Then I tried to change Auto mode to A priority, and the app crashed and the camera froze, still, better than nothing.

On my NX500 the connection is pretty stable, it does freeze and disconnect occasionally but is manageable.

Will test it again with another current phone and some older ones as well.

I really liked the app when it worked, it would be nice if I could get it to work again.
