Now that that is fixed. A new issue has arisen. I can print some images from my camera roll. When connected with the Leica photo app but not all. I thought maybe it was size of file. But I've tried various sizes. I've even resized and recropped images to no avail. The phone shows like it's about to print than nothing happens. And the camera stays with image of the camera and phone next to each other. Until I cycle the camera off and then on again. No error messages.

The app is totally useless because the connection to the phone (which requires bot bluetooth AND wifi if you want to transfer pictures) doesn't work. The nomenclature on the phone is so odd you will have trouble knowing what to do and where to navigate to. At some point I got a QR code on the phone with instructions to scan it with the app, but the app has no such capabilities. 1 star seems to much

REVISED REVIEW: App finally works and connects to my camera without problem. It works as advertise allowing for file transfer to phone/tablet; however, I do feel the remote-control features are limited when compared to similar apps from other companies such Sony, Fuji, Panasonic and others. In general, this feels like a step in the right direction and hopefully Leica will continue improving on it. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Garbage. This is possibly the worst app I have used...ever!!!! Other than taking memory on my phone didn't really do anything. I need the ability to give less than 1 stars to be able to rate this properly..

This app is very difficult. The input panel to enter the WiFi password is incredibly difficult to use, and I have never been able to connect to the WiFi because my password has an assortment of numbers, letters, special symbols, etc and I simply haven't been able to get the password inputted correctly. I did manage to connect it to my phone directly through bluetooth, but the photos go away if you disconnect the camera unless you laboriously manually download each photo individually. There should be a windows app that allows you to do the same onto your computer, which is where you want them if you are going to manipulate or photoshop them. On a scale of A through F, I give it a D.

Tried to connect to the SL2 dozens of times and it simply does not work. Stuck on a connection loop that crashes the app. Can't do anything. For such expensive gear, a functional app is a no-brainer especially since Panasonic has such a fantastic app that never crashes and connects in seconds. Please read all the negative reviews and address the issues.

I like the new app, and the fact that I can now transfer my M10's photos directly to my Android devices as well as my iPad. However, I would like to suggest a couple of small improvements. When transferring photos if the camera or phone goes to 'sleep' the transfer is terminated. It would be nice if the app temporarily disabled sleep mode on the phone during transfers, and if the camera firmware were also smart enough to recognize that a transfer is occurring and temporarily disable power saving mode during a transfer. The second improvement would be a 'select all' button for transfers.
