I have used the canon camera connect app for many years to transfer photo’s from my G9X II to my phone and it always worked just fine. But now It doesn’t any more. When I have almost completed all the steps, the app says it cannot connect. I tried reinstalling the app and giving it all rights possible but no connection. I tried connecting it to my tablet but the same problem occurs. I tried connecting my wife’s G9X II to my phone same problem occurs. Then I tried connecting my EOS M200 and it connects just fine…

It looks like the camera connect app simply won’t connect to G9X II’s any more. Which I would understand if it was a old model but it’s still being sold.

Really annoying...

Have you tried to reset the wireless setting on your camera?

I encountered the same problem before with my G7Xii. I reinstalled the app on my phone but it did not work.

So I reset the wireless setting on the G7Xii and start a new connection to the phone and it can work again.

My G7Xii is older than the G9Xii. So I do not think it is due to the support for older model.

Hope it helps!
