CloudTether tethers your camera to your phone over USB or Wi-Fi and delivers every shot to the cloud in real time — no laptop, no SD-card shuffle. Here's how it compares to CamRanger.
CamRanger is a dedicated hardware device (plus app) that creates its own network for wireless tethered control — live view, remote shooting and image review on a phone, tablet or computer.
CamRanger is built around professional remote camera control via a separate hardware box. CloudTether needs no extra hardware — your phone is the tether — and focuses on automatic delivery: every frame routed onward to the cloud destinations you choose, hands-free as you shoot.
If you need robust, low-latency remote control and live view — studio product work, astrophotography, precise remote operation — CamRanger's dedicated hardware is purpose-built for that. CloudTether focuses on camera-to-cloud delivery rather than remote operation, with no box to buy or charge.
If your goal is automatic delivery of every shot to the cloud rather than remote camera control, CloudTether does it with no extra hardware — your phone is the tether. For hands-on remote live-view control, dedicated hardware like CamRanger is the better fit.
No. CloudTether is a phone app — you connect your camera over USB or its own Wi-Fi, with no dedicated device to buy, carry or charge.
CloudTether is launching on iOS and Android soon.
