vikasmg Posted May 30, 2014 Share #1 Â Posted May 30, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ive been using the Leica App on an iPhone and iPad and have been frustrated by the fact that you can only choose and transfer one picture at a time from the camera to the device. Am I missing something? Â It's frustrating enough with the Panasonic GM1 where the app will only let you transfer 10 at a time but 1 at a time seems like I'm not doing something right. Â On the other hand, visually and graphically Leica's app is streets aged of the Panasonic app. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

harald.ludwig.925 Posted May 31, 2014 Share #2 Â Posted May 31, 2014 I have the same impression. It would be nice if Leica could changeant something in the firmware. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanJW Posted May 31, 2014 Share #3 Â Posted May 31, 2014 Vikasmg: I don't think you're missing anything. There seems no way to select more than one image in the app. This is obviously not a camera firmware issue but an app issue. However, maybe we can see app improvements faster than firmware improvements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalfx Posted May 31, 2014 Share #4 Â Posted May 31, 2014 the app is seriously lacking in many ways. Its almost like pre-beta software. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

barjohn Posted May 31, 2014 Share #6 Â Posted May 31, 2014 I don't believe it will do that even though you may be on the same network. I will test it to see if the computer sees it as a file system. Â On the iPad I noticed that the transferred file is not a full resolution JPG. You are limited on zooming in on the image. Â The WiFi card may work because the card door was intentionally made of plastic to provide a path for the WiFi signal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanJW Posted May 31, 2014 Share #8 Â Posted May 31, 2014 The wifi setup on the camera allows you to turn on a browser connection. There is no intuitive way to get to this, but the camera will provide an address in the wifi section. In my case it was 10.0.1.31. If you put that address in your browser (I am using Firefox) on a computer on the same network, it will open a page that allows seeing all the photos stored on the card (I have not tried internal storage). However, you still cannot select more than one at a time so the browser solution is no better than the connect to iPhone or iPad "solution". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barjohn Posted May 31, 2014 Share #9 Â Posted May 31, 2014 It does allow you to down load a full resolution JPG one-at-a-time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanJW Posted May 31, 2014 Share #10 Â Posted May 31, 2014 I have also found that if you leave the camera on with wifi on and browser on, but do not connect to either browser or iphone/ipad, the camera will search constantly for a signal and freeze up the controls. At one point I could not turn it off and had to pull the battery. I have now disabled the browser setting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had wi-fi on at the time and that may have been it. I too had to remove the battery! Â - Vikas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanJW Posted May 31, 2014 Share #13 Â Posted May 31, 2014 The freezing while on wifi does appear to be a firmware bug and I would consider it serious. Hopefully Leica will include a fix in an update. Because the app is very limited and the browser connection buggy I have turned off wifi completely now. I wonder whether that will prove beneficial to battery life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
