Chrome is one of the first things I disable on my Android devices, and I hate the idea of signing up for any accounts just to access local files.
But Canon welcomed me with a big surprise, and a fuck you, too!

Completely irrelevant to the reason why I use the app, though.
I geotag photos, and that can only be done through the app.
I use live view, and that can only be done through the app.
Firmware updates. App.
You can do firmware updates with the SD Card, that’s the way it’s been done for decades.
I’m not going to pretend what geotagging and canon live view™ is but it sounds a lot like image metadata?
Yes, but I’m not checking Canon’s website for every camera I own, when the app would just tell you.
That’s one thing that I shouldn’t have to chase Canon for.
Geotagging puts location data in the photo. This is something I add to every image, because I use location for searching.
Live view is cool. You can set up the camera, and view/control it through the app.
This has many applications, and should never need an account to access, since the app should be communicating directly with the camera.
