Trippalhealicks,
UPDATE! Please read if you have issues!
If you have issues with staying connected via the Fotos app, and more so, viewing and transferring images to your phone, please keep reading.
If your SD card was formerly formatted by another camera besides the M11 (especially another brand with different file and folder structure), you need to format your SD card with the M11! This resolved ALL my issues with wireless connectivity and image transfer. I’m giving the app 4 stars as there are still a few small nagging “glitches” with the app, but nothing that greatly affects functionality.

ShortySjunneson,
Great… until it stopped working
The app was great for the 2 years I used it until 6 months ago Leica did an update to the app and now it’s unusable for me. The update did bring some nice features that had been requested by users but with the compromise of the reliability and stability of the app. For me I can’t transfer more than 3 photos to my phone without the app freezing and sometimes crashing. What used to take a few minutes to transfer photos now takes a few hours. I’m one who would prefer to get the image right in camera, and I love how the Leica JPEGs look. Sure I can transfer the photos to my computer and back to my phone, but it sort of defeats the purpose for having this app. I’ve been in contact with Leica support for months now and no one from the company has been able to do anything to fix this problem. I have followed all of their suggestions and nothing has worked. Well I haven’t tried the latest suggestion, which was to delete all the Leica photos from the Leica gallery and storage on my phone. To me that’s an unacceptable suggestion to solve the problem. Please Leica fix your app. Your cameras are so great, but the software side of things is very unreliable and unacceptable for a company as yours.
Hiking_Photographer,
Needs more flexibility…
The new version 3.3.1 still applies the wrong sign to GPS locations in North America, causing them to look like they are in the Indian Ocean.
The new version 3.3.0 applies the wrong sign to previously recorded images’ GPS locations from my M10-R Visoflex. After testing, with the latest M10-R firmware, the problem still exists. Which then moves geolocations from the mid Atlantic States to the Western Indian Ocean. I have the same GPS problem with the M11 getting data from my iPhone. This should be a quick fix.
This is a problem with Fotos. For downloading from the camera to the iPad or iPhone it works well. It is more reliable and easier to establish a connection than connecting a Nikon camera with the Nikon SnapBridge app. However, you cannot direct the images to a particular folder. The storage in the iPhone and iPad is limited, so it would be nice if one could download the images to a selected folder on an attached storage device like the LaCie SSD drive. It still doesn’t allow one to GPS stamp ones images at time of capture on the M11 while it is connected with one’s iPhone; as it was advertised it would before the camera’s release.☹️

hobo-wan-kanobi,
Guess I’ll try again...
This app has not worked properly or reliably since I purchased my M10 a year ago. Lately it just freezes on the black screen with the Leica logo in the middle. My camera says it’s connected but the app just sits there. The red dot reminds me of HAL from 2001, staring at me, waiting, plotting maybe? I’d like to use it once in a while as a remote way to view when shooting from the hip or over my head. It’s not a necessity but I would like to at least try it for f$&ks sake. Good thing I went with the m10 as I was planning on the M10-d and was going to use the app often to check my exposures and view what I shot when I take my mid day break. Who am I kidding, I still wish I would have skipped a month of meals and paying my bills on time and gone with the M10-d. I’m a poor man, sold my car and Fuji gear for the M10,as a serious illness leaves the true rangefinder as my only option for professional quality cameras. Just fix the app as it’s me and the M 10 for the rest of my life unless some cash decides to fall from the sky and into my wallet. I’m proud to be the worlds poorest Leica shooter.
Comedy-Fan-123,
Well designed but technical issues/not stable
I own a Q2 Monochrome and an iPhone 11 Pro Max. The Fotos app is simple and well designed. The Lightroom integration is especially appreciated. The user experience is well thought out and focuses on what photographers want - without bloated features. Bravo!
Unfortunately, the wireless download feature to get photos from my camera to my phone is very (very very) unstable. I typically select 10-30 photos to download after a shoot and select download RAW - and I’ve never once had the download feature fully work on the first try. It always ends in an error with only some of the photos downloaded. It typically takes 3-4 tries to finally get every image to my phone.
As a young photographer, a fast and stable wireless experience is an expectation - not a nice to have. I urge the development and hardware team to prioritize wireless and mobile experiences for the young, modern photographer!

Unreliable performance
I really wish this worked as well as other iPhone software, but it falls far short. The Leica brand is all about reliability and top notch performance. However this software has ongoing problems with connecting to either of my cameras (SL and M10) and when somehow it does connect it is painfully slow. If I were the Leica CEO I’d replace the engineering team and product manager for putting out something that reflects so poorly on the company.
2021 update: I bought a new camera and the app is still completely unreliable and not a serious tool.

So lame (UPDATED)
*UPDATE*
They have now made the pro features available for free. Thank you Leica for listening to your customers. I can confidently rate this app 4 stars. Really looking forward to using this app more now.
Pretty shocking they want to charge a subscription model for functionality that has been around for a very long time through other camera brands. Really wanted to use that function but no way on earth I’m paying $50 a year for something so simple and standard across the board these days.

Connectivity issues
First, why is the version for the M11 beta? I know what beta means but does Leica hide behind the beta designation to let you know that the product will not work? The M11 has been out long enough to drop the beta from the Fotos app. Second, what have they done to it? The earlier versions allowed for easy connectivity to the camera where I could easily transfer any photos on the SD card in the camera to iPad or iPhone via wi-fi. It was slow to transfer but at least it worked. Now, the camera doesn’t even connect to my iPhone or iPad device. Not via Wi-Fi. How difficult is it to ensure you can connect for the most common and basic function, transferring your photos?
i never leave reviews,,
Takes forever to connect
My M10-P takes forever to connect to the iPhone It displays the message, “could not connect,” two or three times before finally connecting as long as I keep tapping the “join.” It will eventually connect but requires patience which I guess is the ethos of Leica.
Other than that substantial glitch I love the idea of downloading the images to the iPhone. I hope they fix this issue.

SS57Walter,
Incredibly frustrating…
Nothing is more disappointing than this when you cannot download pictures you take on the trip and share them with your family and friends! I ended up leaving my Leica Q in the hotel’s safety box and taking all the travel pictures with my iPhone (lol).
The previous app worked well though it acted unstable sometimes, but it stopped working on my iPhone 12 with iOS 15.4.1. I found the new app and it is even worse. It connects to my Q but shows nothing in the Leica Gallery.
Please hire a decent software engineer and fix the bug ASAP. Do not copy and paste the same “please contact the customer support” message here.
