Nikon has today released an update (v1.0.1) to Snapbridge for iOS. Update is via AppStore/iTunes or Google as normal for these apps. I am downloading and will test tomorrow.

Same issues - Failed to pair with mt iPhone 4S and/or iPad 3rd Generation devices. Both are on the supported list.

Just a thought JK, might the Bluetooth also be communicating with some other device? I have found Bluetooth quite flaky with all my computers and devices if they are multitasking. None of my host computers or small devices will work reliably when I try to use BT headphones and a BT mouse/trackpad/keyboard at the same time, audio breaks down badly, audio OK if the headphones are the only BT device paired on any host.

No the D500 and the iPhone or the iPad are communicating with each other and seeing each other but they never pair. I get the authentication code sent from D500 to device being shown on the device. Then you need to do an OK on both camera and device then it falls over. It is very frustrating.

Technology refreshed! IPad Pro and iPhone SE. Now I have my D500 Snapbridge connected. I am not sure it was worth the effort or expense. My Fuji camera connects much easier and the app works much better. Is it time to get rid of my Nikons?

I will continue to remove the SD cards and slip them into the iPad card reader. All this Bluetooth and wireless transfer just erodes battery life...which in the case of the Fuji, is in short supply. I've tried various remote shooting interfaces, some good some poor, but the basic question comes down to whether you need to leave your cameras remotely and operate them? Its never been an absolute necessity for me, so haven't missed the option.

I havent tried it yet but you can also usb cable link the camera to the ipad if youhave the camera connection kit. All this stuff should be simple but Apple make it difficult so they get ipad corruptions and Nikon make it difficult as well due to the complete incompetence at designing software.

One of my irritations with iPad, is the inability to add modified jpegs from a card. It reads the originally recorded file, but take it into a desktop and resave it to an sd card, even without modification, and the iPad won't see it.
