First, Check the Camera Model and System Software

This guide only applies to the Sony α7 IV / ILCE-7M4. The mobile pairing function of the Creators’ App requires camera system software version 2.00 or higher; if below this version, first follow Sony’s current firmware instructions to confirm the available update path. [G-A7-01]

Distinguish Between the Two Mobile Apps

Imaging Edge Mobile and the Creators’ App are different applications; Sony’s current support list includes ILCE-7M4 Ver.2.00+ under the Creators’ App models. Do not consider the installation status of the old app as the Creators’ App being already paired. [G-A7-02]

Migrate from the Old App and Re-pair

Sony’s ILCE-7M4 pairing support guide records the camera menu and Bluetooth function setup steps. Sony support articles (updated 2026-07-31) explain that when migrating from Imaging Edge Mobile, first update the old app to Ver.7.7.2 or later; iPhone / iPad users should restart the device after updating the camera system software, then follow the camera and Creators’ App prompts to pair. The above is the manufacturer’s documented process and does not indicate that the local phone has already migrated or connected successfully. [G-A7-01, G-A7-03]
