In this video, we'll show you how to connect your
Canon EOS digital camera to
your compatible Android™ device.
With built-in Wi-Fi® technology you can easily
share photos from your camera
to your Android™ device.
We recommend using Camera
Access Point mode, which allows you to
connect your camera directly to your
mobile device without the need for a wireless router.
Let's get started.
First, let's download the Canon Camera Connect app
on your android device.
Find and tap the Google Play Store® icon.
In the search box type Canon Camera Connect.
Then tap Search.
Tap Install.
And follow any on-screen instructions
to complete the installation.
Now, let's connect your camera.
Please make sure the camera's date
and time are correctly set up
and a memory card is inserted in the camera
before proceeding.
Please note, the EOS SL3 has a touch screen function,
however, for this video, we'll be using the
Set button and the directional buttons
to make selections.
Make sure the camera is powered on.
Then press the Menu button.
Go to the purple Wireless Settings menu,
then select OK.
Make sure Wi-Fi settings is set to Enable.
Then select Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connection.
In the Wi-Fi function menu,
select Connect to smartphone.
Then, select Add a device to connect to.
Since we already downloaded the app earlier,
select Do not display.
In the Connect to smartphone menu,
select Connect via Wi-Fi.
The camera's SSID and password will be displayed.
On your Android™ device, go to your Wi-Fi ® settings.
Find and select the network name
or SSID displayed on the camera.
Then, enter the password, which is also displayed on the camera,
and tap Connect.
Once the device is connected,
return to the home screen on your
Android™ device and open the
Canon Camera Connect app.
The following screens will appear.
Read the agreements,
and if you agree to the terms, tap Agree to continue.
When you first run the app, you may be asked
to grant permission for the app to
access photos, media, and files
on your device, as well as your device's location.
Tap Allow to grant the app access to your photos.
Granting the app your device's location is optional.
On the Camera Connect welcome screen, tap Skip.
Then tap Start.
The Camera Connect welcome screen will only appear
once the first time you open the app.
When this screen appears select your camera.
When you see this screen on the camera, select OK.
You can now send images from your camera
to your Android™ device.
Using the Canon Camera Connect app
on your Android device,
tap Images on camera.
Tap the gear on the upper right to
access the Camera Image List settings.
Review the options.
When you're done making your selections,
tap the X icon in the upper right.
Tap Select.
Then choose the images that you'd like to transfer.
Once your images are selected, tap this icon.
A resize option screen will be displayed if you left the
option 'Select when saving'
selected in the Camera Image List settings.
Choose an option, and then tap OK.
Your photos will now be transferred
and saved to your Android™ device.
After the images have been saved, tap the X icon in
the upper right of the screen.
Then, tap the left arrow icon in the upper left to
return to the menu screen.
To end the connection, tap the X icon in the upper
right of the screen.
Then tap Yes.
If you need to reconnect your camera to
your mobile device, there's no need
to complete pairing again if you'll
continue using the camera
and the mobile device together.
Again, go to the purple
wireless settings menu and select
Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connection.
Select the name of the mobile device
that you'd like to connect to.
Your Android™ device will pair
automatically with the camera.
Launch the Camera Connect app and the camera
will connect automatically with the app.
If the camera didn't automatically connect,
follow these steps.
On your Android™ device, go to your Wi-Fi® settings.
Select and connect to the network name
or SSID that you previously used with the camera.
Open the Canon Camera Connect app.
Your camera name will appear at the top of the screen.
You can now send images from your camera
to your Android™ device.
If you lose Wi-Fi® connection because of an
updated operating system or an app update,
performing a wireless settings
reset may resolve the problem.
Press the Menu button and go to the
purple Wireless Settings menu.
Select Clear wireless settings.
Then select OK.
Wireless communication will reset
back to the default settings.
Please follow the video again from the beginning
to reconnect your mobile device.
Congratulations! You've successfully connected
your Canon EOS digital camera
to your Android™ device.
You can now share photos from your camera
to your Android™ device.
