3/5OK for file transfers, please remove constant subscription reminder
As an owner of a previous version, I was unpleasantly surprised to see the change to a subscription-based model for the additional features. I use this app solely to allow for a common interface when transferring photos from different wifi-enabled cameras and SD cards. Even though I do not use the additional features (and retain the current functionality that I had already paid for), I dislike the bright orange icon that now sits on the screen next to the options. I expect something like that to inform me of an issue that needs addressed -such as file transfer failures, low storage space, login problems, etc. Instead, it appears to be nothing more than an attention getter to keep pointing me to the subscription page.

5/5Keenai is Dead. Long Live Shuttersnitch
I was panicking because I had allowed the Keenai app to be archived by iOS. Thanks Apple. I had not used my Canon SLR in many months and when I tried to link my Eyefi Mobi card I saw that Keenai was archived with no way of installing it again. I’m not a fan of paid storage for photos since I already pay annually for MSOffice/OneDrive and have not approached my TB of storage. Anyway I decided if I could get Shuttersnitch to sync to the Eyefi Mobi card it would be worth $3 a month to have instant access to photos on my phone to be able to share and save. After frantically trying the methods outlined in the help forums I was able to get the card to sync. One thing I missed in the instructions is that in order for Shuttersnitch to receive files you must create a Collection (folder). I assumed the app would create one for me on the fly. That’s what I get for assuming. I’m happy now and will gladly pay the money just so I don’t have to swap SD cards. The other features are a bonus.

2/5Not The Best Value
It’s a nice app, it works once you can figure out how to set it up. The instructions are ok, but not very clear. I was able to get it after some doing, plus my tech knowledge. But for someone who is not so tech savvy, who just wants to wirelessly transfer shots real time, this app is a bit cumbersome to set up. Which is to be expected given that it works with so many platforms. However, the pics come through relatively fast, it gives some nice options for quick edits. It’s a nice way to review shots right away instead of having to wait for post. But $30+ a year? Seriously? Additionally, it only works on one device at a time which, in my case, is unfortunate. I have two tablets, one of which is really nice, so I don’t relish letting a client hold onto it, I’d rather use the nice one myself and let them hold the not so nice one for review. What escapes me is way it is only subscription based. Most of the features that people would use this for are “in house”, so outside of the user, there is no reason for anyone else to get involved in the operations. Unless your shots first go to some server then come back to you. If that’s the case then they have some serious legal issues of privacy that is not addressed in setup. Plus, if the shots are indeed going to a server, why can’t more than one device access simultaneously? I mean really, one is simply transferring images from a camera to a tablet or phone. But I guess they are content with holding people’s needs hostage and laughing all the way to the bank. Why there is not a choice of a simple transfer version for which you pay a small one time fee is beyond me. I guess they skipped that lesson in business school. I guess I will have to continue getting ripped off until I find a more sensible solution, at which point I will drop this app like a hot nail and run.

5/5Excellent tool for serious photographers
As I noted in an earlier review, Shuttersnitch is a 5-star product, though not for the casual or non-tech-savvy user. This is an advanced and highly configurable product with a ton of features. There’s a non-trivial learning curve. Don’t expect to spend 2 mins and be done. But once you’ve got the SW dialed in and configured to play nicely with your unique photographic/network/etc setup, it works flawlessly. As a professional shooter, I use Shuttersnitch to upload in the field from my Z9 via an IOS device to various cloud resources, including FTP sites as well as Dropbox and Google Drive. I’d note that customer support, over on the Shuttersnitch user forum, is outstanding. For a specific kind of user, with specific needs, Shuttersnitch is a must-have app.

5/5Does what is does better than any iPad alternative
I've been a user since 2020 and Shuttersnitch does exactly what is sets out to do and has a very responsive developer who is active on the support forum. Wi-fi functionality depends on your camera's wi-fi abilities. Some camera makers have more advanced wi-fi than others. The captioning and metadata control, along with the ability to create templates/presets makes captioning a breeze. The built in ftp and connectivity to other file systems from Google drive and Dropbox to Flickr, Smug Mug or Zenfolio should meet amateur and professional needs. Shuttersnitch on an IPad the need for a laptop to run Photo Mechanic for less than the cost of a coffee a month, and constant frequent updates.

-
7.4.2
• Added support for metadata Tokens in the Custom text option of the Change filename Action. • Bug fixes and minor improvements.
-
7.4.3
• Added 'Camera serial number' to the Condition action. • Bug fixes.
-
7.5.0
• I'm really sorry, but I have to mess with your visual memory again. The select-button in Filmstrip mode is now four circles with a checkmark in one of them instead of one large checkmark. It had to be done. • Added support for Content Credentials on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. Unfortunately the C2PA signing library is not yet available for visionOS. If you are new to this, files with Content Credentials are signed every time they are edited in order to maintain a history of the changes. Signing will only occur on files that are already signed - or if you run the new Assign Content Credentials Action. • Added an Assign Content Credentials Action. This will let you sign files with a producer name and define allowed/disallowed uses. • If you have your own C2PA signing certificate you can replace the default one from the collection overview → Options → Settings → Advanced tab → Content Credentials. • Added a little downward pointing chevron to buttons that have a secondary (long press / right click) function. • Updated to libssh2 v1.11.1. If you've had SFTP handshake problems, this could be the fix. • The Condition Action is a little more rigorous finding serial numbers in metadata for the Camera serial number option. • Cleaned up the File/Edit menu a bit. • Lots and lots of under-the-hood improvements and fixes.
-
7.5.1
• Added long press options to the copy and paste buttons in the Metadata Editor. These let you pick specific fields to copy and if you want to paste-and-merge values instead of replacing all metadata. Long pressing the paste option also lets you paste only to the marked files. Files can be marked using the ribbon-button in the image toolbar. • Added more keyboard shortcuts to the Metadata Editor. Cmd + arrow keys lets you navigate the files, Cmd + X lets you toggle their marked state. • Bug fixes and minor improvements.
-
7.5.2
• Fixed a bug that would prevent the Metadata Preset Editor from saving the metadata values to the Preset. • Minor fixes.
-
7.5.3
• UI compatibility updates.
-
7.6.0
• Added support for iOS/iPadOS 26 and Liquid Glass. • Added search to the collections overview. You can search for collection title, file name, metadata caption, byline, or keyword. Tapping a result takes you right to the file or collection. • Added a dedicated drop-pin button to the Geolocation → Custom map in the Metadata Editor, allowing you to drop the pin at the currently focused map area. • The Share sheet Import extension now lets you invert the sorting of the collection picker if you want to see the latest collections at the top instead of the bottom. • Cleaned up the Browser page a bit in the settings and added an option to turn off the 2-finger rotation of JPEG files in Filmstrip mode. • Changed the Passive mode option for FTP Locations to three options: Passive, Active, and EPSV. • Bug fixes.
-
7.6.1
• Added Undo to the bottom selection buttons in selection mode. (Shake on iOS/iPadOS, Command+Z on macOS.) • Fixed an issue causing some buttons in the More-buttons-menu to not work. • Minor fixes. In case you missed what was new in version 7.6.0: • Added support for iOS/iPadOS 26 and Liquid Glass. • Added search to the collections overview. You can search for collection title, file name, metadata caption, byline, or keyword. Tapping a result takes you right to the file or collection. • Added a dedicated drop-pin button to the Geolocation → Custom map in the Metadata Editor, allowing you to drop the pin at the currently focused map area. • The Share sheet Import extension now lets you invert the sorting of the collection picker if you want to see the latest collections at the top instead of the bottom. • Cleaned up the Browser page a bit in the settings and added an option to turn off the 2-finger rotation of JPEG files in Filmstrip mode. • Changed the Passive mode option for FTP Locations to three options: Passive, Active, and EPSV.
-
7.6.2
• Added the option to enable/disable status messages from the title tap-and-hold options in filmstrip mode. Exactly the same as flipping the toggle in the settings. • Added Tags to the title text options. • Added an undo option (shake or Cmd+Z) to the jump-to-beginning/end navigation in filmstrip mode. • Exiting the filmstrip selection mode will now stay focused on the currently focused area of files. • Minor fixes.
-
7.6.3
• Bug fixes and minor fixes.
-
7.6.4
• Added a setting to select the behavior of the « and » browser navigation buttons. You can pick the number of files it jumps or if it should jump to the next group of files separated by a certain time gap. You can find the setting in Settings → Browser → Navigation Jumps. Tip: Long-pressing the buttons in the user interface lets you quickly change between the options. • Added an option to copy deep links to files. Long-press / right-click the thumbnail on iOS/iPadOS/visionOS or Option+Cmd+C on macOS. • Bug fixes and optimizations.

7.7.2
Thank you so much for supporting me by subscribing! Notice how I haven't changed the prices for more than 7 years? My income has been going in the wrong direction for a few years, but don't worry, I'm not in critical territory yet. It sure would be nice with some more subscribers though.. :) If you have friends or followers who you think could benefit from using ShutterSnitch please consider mentioning it to them. Thanks again for your support and I hope you have a wonderful day! • Made the colored ShutterSnitch icon in the system Share sheet work with more formats and multiple files. • Added support for uploading to existing folders, and shortcuts to folders, on Google Drive. You will need to re-authenticate since another privilege is needed: reading metadata for existing files. Specifically, in order to upload a file to an existing folder, ShutterSnitch needs to be allowed to retrieve the folder-ID for the destination folder. • If you want to upload to a shared folder, create a shortcut to it on your own Google Drive and upload into that shortcut. • Added the ability to customize the Option menu via in-app Settings → Advanced tab → Customize Options Menu. • The Command+J keyboard shortcut (toggle auto-jump to new files) now also works in filmstrip mode. • Removed 'Change Password' from the Options menu. If you want to change the password, do it from in-app Settings → Advanced tab → Reset Superuser password. • Lots of minor fixes and improvements.
