Phone connects to the camera easily enough. Turn off Bluetooth via settings, connect to camera WiFi. Live view is slow, very slow frame rate. However what really bugs me- want to download a video from the camera to phone? Forget about it. 3 minute video takes 5 minutes to download. Suspect dial up connection might be faster... Camera doesn’t show up when plugged into the iPhone worth the camera connection dock, or on the iPad Pro e we otherwise straight USB connection. Camera is great, back end, not so much.

On my iPhone it connects in the expected way by joining network from iPhone in network settings. Camera goes to live mode no issue. But on iPad it will not connect this way. You have to use the button in the app to add the device to the SiOnyx network. Doing it this way with Bluetooth off and airplane mode on is consistent. Not sure why it is this way but after talking to support who was very Helpful this is the design. This app with the camera gives me the night vision I need to run my boat at night safely.

Both my Aurora and Aurora Pro stream perfectly to my iPhone 12 mini with iOS 15. As long as my phone starts out in airplane mode and then I start the app and connect to the camera, it is solid. I always make sure I have a microSD card loaded in the camera in case there’s a firmware update when I open the app. The update happens smoothly without interruption.
