Good camera but doesn't work with HTC One M8

I was so excited about this phone for its Wi-Fi capabilities but like so many others I am disappointed. I have an online Etsy shop and bought this to easily send good quality photos to my phone to upload to the Etsy app when I add new products. So far I've been very happy with the picture quality, but I can't get it on my phone. I have an HTC One M8 with NFC support. I downloaded the app, synced my phone and camera and uploaded the photos, but now I can only view them in the download app. I can't put them in my phone's gallery or downloads. All I can do in the app is select/deselect and delete. It doesn't help me at all. I don't know if the problem is related to the lack of compatibility with 3rd party phones, but I figured it should work with an NFC smartphone. I can email photos and upload them to Facebook straight from the camera and it works great. The photos look beautiful and I'm sure I can easily upload them to my laptop with a USB drive or micro SD card, but I bought this specifically for Wi-Fi. I think I just got a decent regular soapbox instead, but I wouldn't pay as much as I would for a more basic camera.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
