I just bought PowerShot ELPH 530 HS (IXUS 510 HS). How do I transfer photos to my iPhone? I have the Canon Camera Connect app but this model is not listed on the app. I also tried image.cannon. Also, my camera keeps saying Connection Failed after I do the instructions on how to connect my phone to the camera.

You just bought this camera? It's ten years old. It doesn't have the ability to connect to phones. 

it has wifi

how do i transfer images then?

You transfer images the way it's been done since long before cameras had WiFi. Connect camera to computer with a USB A-to-mini B cable, or take the memory card out, put it in a USB card reader, and plug it into computer.

Either way, the memory card shows up as a drive. Open it, open the DCIM folder, and move your files from it.

Greetings,

Afraid your options are limited here.  USB Cable or Card Reader

Similar issues here.  Canon doesn't support wifi connection to Windows 11 for either of my cameras. Also, they don't support the new Android phones for NFC connection.  The word "upgrade" should never appear without quotation marks around it.  

This is not relevant to the OP, and is considered spam. I recommend contacting support directly for your issue, not posting on other people's threads.
