Remote shooting from an iPhone seems to have lost a feature that was working previously.
Scenario - group shot, you are in the shot and you have external flash setup. You want a remote shutter release from your iPhone. This definitely used to work I have previous photos of me doing this with the same flash setup.
On the current version of the iPhone app of Camera Connect when you hit the remote shutter button on the app it takes a photo but external flash doesn't fire. Go back to the camera and press the on-camera shutter button, it works as expected.
This seems to be a feature regression. Something has been removed from the iPhone remote app.
