  • The upload screen will show up as below:

Follow the instructions on the Upload screen by:

1- connecting the device to the same Wifi as your phone by tapping the “Open Wif-Fi Settings” button on the top right. You will be presented with a list of available wifi networks. Connect to the one your phone is connected to.
