    Close, but it could arguably be something compensating for the same!

  The two edges of this sword: All of the functionality worked in the previous edition of the app without the “mandatory” account. The upshot of this is, if you grab an APK of the previous (3.2.40.36) version of the app it still works just fine sans account, because the requirement is completely artificial and your camera’s hardware has not changed.

  Thank you for confirming! I do this with the GoPro Quik app, and I’d have no problem doing it here.

  I have a Sony compact camera with built-in GPS. The newer models require the app for live geotagging. These are the games I refuse to play.

  Thanks for the heads up. It’s version code 77 when downloading manually from Aurora Store in case anyone else is wondering. Please blacklist Canon Camer Connect after installing it to avoid further updates.

  I use it to transfer images to my computer so I don’t have to pull out the sd card. But the tip with the apk is good, will do that too

  Thank you for the version number! I was just lamenting not being able to find it.
