When it says "start dedicated app on target device" open the app you used previously on your phone. Then select the camera from the options in the app.

Same issue here. Have tried resetting WiFi settings on the camera uninstalling the app and reinstalling and using both the camera access point and our WiFi and still can no longer get passed “Start dedicated app on target device.” It’s worked fine for over a year so not sure if it’s an app update causing the issue?

It unfortunately didn't work for me either. I'm waiting to hear back from Canon support as I think its linked with the latest iOS update.

Hi, I’m in really need of dire help here. My camera can’t seem to connect to my phone no matter what I do, it used to work successfully but whenever I try to send videos through my phone it converts the movie first but it keeps on disconnecting before it’s even sent — I never used to have this problem before so I don’t know why it’s being complicated now.

worked for me. Use NFC connection. Just follow the instructions. Thanks!
