I'm trying to make it simple to send an image to Snapbridge with my D500 but having trouble figuring out quick setting set up. I have tried to find this setup option but can't seem to figure it out.

I can't believe you got SnapBridge to work. I gave up trying to use it. What's your secret.

After reading that it only works with jpeg's I never set it up since I only shoot raw !!!!

Thanks, I have it set up as well. Snapbridge is a pain to set up but once activated seems to work fine. Most of the time I'm in airplane mode to conserve battery.

I had Snapbridge working on my D500 right after I bought it and then it quit working. I have been unable to get it to work since then. Do I need to be photographing in JPEG only, I shoot in RAW with backup going to JPEG on my second card. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The phone and camera find each other, but cannot sync.

That's the same problem I have. Worked when I first got the camera. Now it won't sync.

If you take RAW plus JPEG the JPEG images will transfer to your phone no problem. Works for me. RAW is another story. I use the D500 so record RWA on the XQD card and JPEG on the SD card...

Works fine for me. I set XQD RAW and SD jpeg. I choose send picture and pick the jpegs I want to send. Here is an example I did this with to send a text with picture to my wife yesturday. Once setting filled my phone full of pictures. Does not seem to drain batter to fast but I carry extra batteries and sometimes use a battery grip.
