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!

      Yes, another user already confirmed that the old version still works. I’ve done the same with the old GoPro app.

      EDIT: but old versions have built-in planned obsolescence, because they won’t support newer devices (both cameras or smartphones) for very long. My Samsung 360 camera was rendered useless once they discontinued app support.

        I have an old Gear VR and a Samsung S3. I don’t believe there is any way to use it today. It wants to connect to Facebook to log in, but their auth token has expired.

          You actually can still use it, there’s some folks on reddit trying their best to keep it going. App support is very poor though.

            My S3 is garbage. I only wanted to try and stream videos to it (without motion tracking) but even that seems too hard.
