Has anyone had luck using the camera connect app to GPS tag photos on your Canon camera. I've watched a few videos and it doesn't seem to be working. I'm still using a 90D and it has Bluetooth and wifi.

Greetings,
I've used the GPS location feature with my R5 C. I'm running a Pixel device with Android OS. Most issues arise from a lack of permissions or aggressive power saving options.
Please describe the behavior you're experiencing in more detail.

I use it most of the time on my R6II and iphone x. In the iphone settings (apps) under Camera Connect I have everything allowed. Under Privacy and Security/Location Services/camera Connect is set to while using.
