If Bluetooth setup is unavailable or cannot be completed, follow the app’s instructions to connect using the camera’s temporary Wi-Fi network.

  • Open your phone’s Wi-Fi settings when prompted.

  • Select the network that resembles ADC-(XX:XX:XX). The Xs represent the last six characters of the camera’s MAC address, found on the back of the camera body.

If your phone displays a warning that the temporary network has no internet connection, remain connected using the applicable option below.
