Simone_DF Posted October 19, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) I just updated the app to 2.2.0 and according to the marketing text, this update "made all Leica FOTOS PRO features available for free". It was about time. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 Hi Simone_DF, Take a look here Leica FOTOS 2.2.0 released, all Pro features are now free. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!

Guest Posted October 20, 2020 Share #5 Posted October 20, 2020 I wonder what they’ll do for the poor souls that paid?!? (Not me by the way.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott kirkpatrick Posted October 20, 2020 Share #6 Posted October 20, 2020 See posts on this subject on M10 forum. One such person got his refund from Apple, since he had paid only a few days ago. I tested, and could upload a DNG for FREE! Still can't use the video shutter protocol to trigger multiple shots and haven't tried video. What other Pro features are thee to look for? Other bugs still exist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 20, 2020 Share #7 Posted October 20, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) Main "pro" thing for me is the iPad version (which needed a subscription to run at all before). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 20, 2020 Share #8 Posted October 20, 2020 I've got the iPad version working eventually, but annoyingly I have to disconnect and "forget" my home network before it will do so. If my iPad is connected to my home WiFi when Fotos attempts to connect, I just get a "Unable to connect to network" error. It works fine on my iPhone (same home network).

willeica Posted October 20, 2020 Share #10 Posted October 20, 2020 A lot of people ask why such features cannot be built into cameras. Now we know why as the complaints would be endless. However, all electronic stuff tends to have bugs, even software from the likes of Apple, Microsoft and Google. I still have not found a reason why I would 'need' FOTOS. I tried it once and it would not 'talk' to my M10, so I have left it alone ever since. Can anyone come up with any real 'needs' that it actually meets?

Guest Posted October 20, 2020 Share #11 Posted October 20, 2020 For an M10-D it's the only way to change certain settings, and that's all I use it for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott kirkpatrick Posted October 20, 2020 Share #12 Posted October 20, 2020 I use it as a cable release, and for shots taken at very inconvenient angles, where I can't see through the camera or even check the LCD. And for configuration setting on my M10-D. And to set date and time for varying time zones, back when travel between them was easier. I'd like to use it for GPS localization, but that hasn't been reliable enough. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlaidlaw Posted October 21, 2020 Share #13 Posted October 21, 2020 Having only paid the annual subscription fee just over a month ago, I am not too happy for myself about it suddenly being made free. I feel pro-rata refunds might be in order. Wilson 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MediaFotografie Posted October 31, 2020 Share #15 Posted October 31, 2020 today there‘s a new version 2.2.2 including bugfixes - sounds good, we will see Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrp Posted October 31, 2020 Share #16 Posted October 31, 2020 Great, but it still does not fulfill the simple function of being able to provide GPS / time set for the SL2. I don’t really need the facility of downloading pics from the SL2 as using the card reader is probably more battery efficient, but the app seems to insist on establishing a Wi-fi connection and then discovering that I am using 2 cards, which it doesn’t like, after scanning my 128GB cards ... I don’t know whether the problem is one of bureaucracy (a subcontractor working to rule), incompetence (eg, poor software architectural model), or lack of resources / adequate investment, but this app still seems broken to me.

Chuck Albertson Posted November 1, 2020 Share #18 Posted November 1, 2020 The iPad version is now working as it should have been all along. Connecting and staying connected is much more reliable. Like Scott, I mostly use the remote features. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wlaidlaw Posted November 3, 2020 Share #20 Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) If anyone has paid for Fotos, a request for a pro-rata refund should be made via the support link on the app. I had to turn emails back on on one of my iPads to do this, as I normally have emails off on my iPads and iPhones, to avoid duplication with my MacBook. The suggestion was a free subscription to LFI or Adobe CC but I have turned these down as I already purchase and have paid for these. The alternative suggestion would possibly be an ex-gratia camera battery which I advised that I would find very acceptable for my SL, CL or M10-R.
