wait a sec, i figured it out now, you reset the wifi communication settings and start over with a device, you then see a bar code box which takes you to the app store when using the iphone to scan it, if already installed, the next step is linking the wifi with the camera, the fools here did not mention this at all!
My camera never connects to anything. I’ve followed all of these steps and it just sits on the screen saying pairing. Never connects. Tried several different Apple devices. Taking this back.
I love using camera connect! I started using it with my PowerShot SX700HS. It would be very cool if you guys could find a way to get remote view working on the Apple Watch, or even let me use the watch as a remote shutter.
I purchased you m50 video creator kit that includes a RODE VideoMic, but that microphone will not work properly when using this app. Why would you sell a product in a kit that is incompatible with the features of your camera?
you need to buy a iphone x for $1500, Apple has an extortion scam where they have private agreements with ios developers to make their apps only work with the latest most expensive devices., they will also shut down your older phones if you jailbreak to get around the scam.
@@JoshuaNgMusic you have to re initialize the wifi settings over and over if you plan on swapping between a computer and phone, they did a bad job in programing the m50 to limit its performance!
Dunno if you guys cares but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all the new series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my brother for the last couple of months :)
This is so complicated! So I cleared all settings and I’m now on factory settings. Voila! Pairing is no longer greyed out! Yay! But my camera refuses to pair with my iPhone even though Bluetooth is turned on and the camera is turned on! Help !
Thank you for this great video. I can connect my phone but can’t use the remote live view shooting option from the phone even if the live view shoot mode is enabled on the camera. I have tried everything. Do you have any idea how to solve it? It says ‘cannot use this function with the current settings on this camera for images viewable via connection’ Thank you
Great video, my question is when my phone screen locks, Camera drops Wi-Fi connection and does not auto- transfer pictures to my phone. Am I missing something or Camera Stays connected only while Cannon Connect App is running with Phone Screen Unlocked?
A question, so ive managed to do the process, however, how do connect the two second time round? I have to re-pair the camera everytime, what am I missing? I just want to re establish the connection easily after I turn the camera off and back on again.
I have connected my M50 to my Iphone (8S) but I also want to connect it to my ipad. Can I do this? Using the app from my ipad does not seem to let me do this. Help!

What to do if this shows "Pairing failed, delete camera from blutetooth setting camera screen on your smartphone, then perform pairing again" but when im on bluetooth setting i cant understand what to be deleted pleasee help
I am trying to work through this currently with Canon support, but thought I'd leave a comment here just in case anyone else had any ideas. I've having trouble getting past the 'Search for access point' part of the connection set up. It's around the 3min mark of this video. I've had no problems with connecting my iPhone 8 plus with my Canon m50 previously, but in the last month it has not been able to connect at all. I am now also having no luck pairing via Bluetooth. I have already - Upgraded the firmware on the camera - Uninstall/install the Camera Connect app again - Cleared all settings in the Wireless set up on the camera - Restarted my router - Tried connecting the camera to my laptop - same problem (can't find my laptop) - I don't have VPN on my iphone enabled I've only had my m50 for a couple of months as it was a gift, I'd hate to not use the wifi function as it was really timesaving and awesome! Any further help would be amazing x
@@JustFaithL get in touch with Canon support in your area - they will help you find out whether it needs to be sent in for repairs. If you still have your receipts and it's under warranty, then it should be a free fix. Good luck, that really sucks that it's not working but hopefully it's not a hardware issue like mine.
I have pressed “pairing” and when my camera name pops up on my phone, right when I tap to connect or before I tap it says “connection target not found”. It’s weird coz it used to work first and now it doesn’t. Anyone else have this problem?
Yes I am having the same problem. Let me know if yours is fix. Just stop working I uninstalled the app and re installed it to see if that would work but nothing
This all went smoothly until 3:15 - my phone (iPhone 8 Plus) hangs on Connect to Camera and I can't get any further. I've tried entering the details in the phone's wifi settings, but it still won't connect.

Ended up returning my m50. It would not connect to anything and canon wasn’t any help.
mine can't connect either, thought I was alone
thank you for being straightforward and on point.
Can you also send videos using the app?

Can you transfer videos the same way and do they keep their resolution?
thanks for info!
Can you connect you use your phone as a mic when your recording videos on this camera?
Worked like a charm

If "pairing" button is grey try to clear your "check/clear connection info" and then the pairing should no longer be grayed out

@Jamie Darren Definitely, been watching on InstaFlixxer for since november myself :D
@Jamie Darren yup, I've been using instaflixxer for years myself :D
Thank you so much I was stuck 😂
These batteries are very shortlife. Can we record video on the M50 using a powerbank conected by a usb port? Thank's.
Will only short videos transfer
its just amazing
truly worked for me
Yes. But quality of pic is bad on iPhone compared to camera. When uploaded the quality changes
CAN YOU CONNECT 2 TO RECORD AT THE SAME TIME?
My pairing button is grey. I don’t know how to clear my check/clear connection info! Help!
I cant click the "pairing" option??? Why?
Me either! Did you resolve it? Help
Me, neither. We’re supposed to check some kind of clear connection but I have no idea how to do that!
Really help full 🙏🏻
This is so complicated! So I cleared all settings and I’m now on factory settings. Voila! Pairing is no longer greyed out! Yay! But my camera refuses to pair with my iPhone even though Bluetooth is turned on and the camera is turned on! Help !
Awesome Video.. Thank you.. You made life so much easier :)
Pairing does not show up as a clickable option after i select "smart phone ".what am I doing wrong
why cant i press "pairing" after i enable bluetooth function. please help
Thanks a lot and that’s working
Can’t find the app
does this work for video as well?

Thanks for this, is there any way to do long exposure time lapse on the m50? I can't seem to find a way of doing it?
Lower shutter beyond 1/4 is long exposure. The quotation mark is a second so 15” would be a 15 second long exposure
Just what I was looking for, thank you
A question, so ive managed to do the process, however, how do connect the two second time round? I have to re-pair the camera everytime, what am I missing? I just want to re establish the connection easily after I turn the camera off and back on again.
Do you have to disconnect from the Canon Remote in order to enable connection to a phone?
The update they just dropped literally just made the app broken
From She to Me it’s impossible to connect to your phone🤦🏾♂️
Only one phone allowed to connect at once ? I tried to connect another phone & it’s not working.
do i need to redo this every time when i want to transfer phtots
Thanks you, it's work
Great video.
How do I get them from my phone to computer?
I have connected my M50 to my Iphone (8S) but I also want to connect it to my ipad. Can I do this? Using the app from my ipad does not seem to let me do this. Help!
Very useful !!!!!
thank you
I’m getting heavy static on the external mic when using this app. It doesn’t happen when I’m not using the app. Any ideas on how to fix this.
my pairing doesn’t work. Like in the bluetooth function, pairing doesn’t work and i can’t go into pairing. Please help
Great video, thanks! Canon should be ashamed of themselves for devising such a clunky and unintuitive procedure :-(
My thoughts exactly. CLUNKY.
Thank you, can you also transfer video by Wi-Fi to your iPhone?
Urosaurus yes. It works perfectly. You can also watch video you’re filming live on the phone. Very cool!
Thank you so much
Can it work on Iphone5s ?
Help! my phone sends me a notification "Impossible to connect to the wifi network EOS50 Canon..." what should I do?

@@britishboxer6875 no you don't stfu
Do they stay connected permanently or do I have to do this everytime?
Once the camera and smartphone are paired via this initial process you will be able to reconnect simply by opening the app
This is the most frustrating connection setup ever. It’s ridiculous
Thank you!!
What to do if this shows "Pairing failed, delete camera from blutetooth setting camera screen on your smartphone, then perform pairing again" but when im on bluetooth setting i cant understand what to be deleted pleasee help

Just a quick update on my comment - my m50 had an internal wifi wiring issue, it's since been fixed by Canon and works PERFECTLY again. Thanks Canon!
how did canon fix it? I bought my canonm50 last day and today I cant connect it to my phone

This is the 2nd attempt trying hour glass keeps spinning. I followed it stp by step and still cant connect. BS
It said “this camera is not supported” when I tried paring it
This app needs help !
5/5 vid
Thanks. l set it up so l can use my phone to fire the shutter until l can spend the $40 on the Canon remote.
No video transfer
Jehan Creations any chance you figured it out yet? I don’t have a laptop and am unsure how to get videos onto my phone!
Anyone else have problems with the screen going black and losing the connection within 1 minute
Fernie Mac yes
This does NOT work!!
Not sure if a banana wedged between two kiwis was the best choice of subject for this video.
It won’t become easy because you write easy in the title .. It is completely confusing .. So I don’t even try
