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!

    Canon has dropped the ball so hard imo. Most of my other video friends and contacts who use dslrs switched to Sony.

      I also use Sony (and Panasonic) cameras, and both their apps just work without an account. That could change at any time, unfortunately.

      One thing that could work is to use an older version of the app without updating it. I do this with GoPro Quik, since the “new” Quik app is basically one big advertisement to get you to pay for a subscription to edit your videos.

        I wouldn’t be surprised if Sony required an account. But who knows, maybe the camera division is under better management
