Are there any other possibilities to remotely press the shutter than the BR-E1(and smartphone) ? I know at least one called Aodelan, but the price is almost the same.

Is it compatible with the rc-6? Or does the M6ii even have IR?

The M6ii uses Bluetooth for remote activation (it doesn't work with my RC-6). Just be sure to disable Bluetooth in the camera when you're not using it (so it doesn't use battery).

Some radio remotes plug into the "remote" port on the M6ii (leaving the hotshoe free). Otherwise the port works great with a wired remote also.
