But as I said, for me anyway, as of iOS 16 last month, the iDevice now tries to connect to the camera wifi for 30 seconds or so, and then, 90% of the time, says it can't connect. It's so unreliable I won't bother with it for now and will hope either Fuji or Apple have an update soon.

I have an Apple SD to USB C reader which I can use instead. Overpriced, but works flawlessly (which of course is why Apple can charge so much).

I came to the conclusion that the checkmark "private address" in my iphone wifi settings was on. when i turned it off while my iphone was trying to connect, the camera connected right away. Unfortunately it's on on the next connection and I haven't found a way to turn it off permanently yet.

Thanks for the tip. I have tried that and for some reason it makes no difference (that I can discern) in my system. It's still very hard for me to connect to the Fuji wifi.
