I disagree that the wireless method is more convenient. I found using the USB cable much more reliable, especially with file sizes. Wi-Fi often dropped for me, which was frustrating during transfers.
I can see your point! The wireless method can be hit or miss depending on the surroundings. Sometimes a direct connection is just more straightforward.
What should I do if the default Wi-Fi password (12345678) doesn’t work? Is there a way to reset the camera settings?
If the default password doesn't work, you can reset the camera by holding down the reset button, usually located on the back. Check the manual for the exact procedure.
I don’t think using the camera app on the iPhone is that convenient. There's a noticeable delay when I try to take pictures. It’s just easier to use the camera directly.
I’m having trouble finding the 'SQ Mini Camera' app in the App Store. Is it available in all regions or could it be listed under a different name?
When it says to enter the password for the Wi-Fi, is that different for each camera, or is it always '12345678'?
I connected my SQ11 camera to my iPhone last week. It took me a few tries to get it right, especially with the Wi-Fi setup. Once I figured out the correct password, it worked perfectly! Just make sure you follow the steps closely. I also had to restart my camera a couple of times before it recognized my iPhone. It’s super handy for sharing videos directly.
