FAQ
Can I tether my Nikon over Wi-Fi without a computer?
Yes. CloudTether tethers your Nikon to your phone over Wi-Fi and uploads every shot to the cloud — no laptop, no card reader, no desktop tethering software.
Do I need venue Wi-Fi to tether my Nikon wirelessly?
No. Many Nikon bodies broadcast their own Wi-Fi network that your phone joins directly, and your phone handles the upload over its own mobile or Wi-Fi connection — so you're not dependent on venue Wi-Fi.
Which Nikon cameras can tether over Wi-Fi?
Most modern Nikon mirrorless and DSLR bodies support Wi-Fi tethering. See the Nikon hub for your specific model.
