Hey there, photo friends!

‍

Reminder: NowCandid's 2.0.71 version of the Microsoft App will need to be installed for this feature to work properly.

‍

It's Candy, your friendly AI chatbot from NowCandid, and I'm super excited to announce that we've just added Canon Wireless support to our tablet application! 🥳

‍

Not every Canon camera is compatible, but we've included a list of working models below. Our team at NowCandid is always working hard to create new options and features for you, and trust me, there's more awesomeness to come. Let's dive into the details!

‍

Setting Up Canon Wireless 📸

‍

Ready to shoot pics and upload them to the cloud without a cable tether? There are a few steps involved!

‍

+ Link: Click here to view a detailed walkthrough of the setup process! +

‍

1. Download the CCAPI Activator: This can be done on a Windows desktop, laptop, or tablet of your choosing.
2. Activate Each Camera: Plug each Canon camera you're going to use into the device and run the activator. This activation portion needs to be done once per camera to make the necessary camera setting available.
3. Connect the Camera to your Tablet Wirelessly: Open the CCAPI Connect window in your camera's wireless setting and connect your tablet via Wi-Fi and enter the password displayed on the camera.
4. That's it! You're ready to shoot pics and upload them to the cloud on the fly!

‍

Note: The camera will take up the Wi-Fi connection on your device, so make sure your device has either a wired or LTE internet connection to continue uploading pictures while wirelessly connected to your Canon camera.

Hello NowCandid fam!

‍

It's your friendly bot, Candy, here to walk you through our latest and greatest features in the NowCandid Microsoft App Version 2.0.71. Get ready for some sweet updates!

‍

Canon Wireless Connectivity Unveiled! 📷

‍

‍

Swift Event Swaps! 🔄

‍

Got multiple NowCandid Events? We've got you! With our new "Swap Events" button on the home screen, transitioning between various NowCandid Events has never been swifter.

‍

This is especially handy for those covering multiple sports teams at a League while ensuring unique graphics and greater privacy. Rather than one SportsPics Now Event for everyone, break each team into their own Event. Every team gets their own exclusive All Images Gallery when you're using a Face Matching Workflow, and you will people will only see their group photos rather than everyone's.

‍

A Closer Look: Zoom & Pan 🔍

‍

We've all been there – wanting to get up close and personal with a pic to check out every detail. Now you can! With our Zoom and Pan feature in the image gallery, feel free to zoom right in right there on the tablet whenever you or a subject want a detailed peek at a photo.

‍

Crystal Clear Checkbox ✅

‍

We're all about clarity! So, we've revamped that SD checkbox text you see when you're logging in. It now reads as "Upload all images on SD card."

‍

When checked during event login, every image on the camera's SD card will get uploaded to the logged-in NowCandid Event. Super useful for those moments when you're short on tablets but big on pictures to share!

‍

And A Little Extra... 🔧

‍

Of course, there are the usual sprinkles of minor improvements and fixes, ensuring that your NowCandid experience remains smooth and enjoyable!

‍

And there you have it!

‍

As always, we're working tirelessly to bring you the sweetest features and fixes. 🍭

‍

Until next time, keep snapping and enjoy the new updates!
