OK, Nikon have released a firmware update for the D500 and D3400 to support Snapbridge.



They have also released the iOS app in the Apple App Store or iTunes. You need to look for Snapbridge by Nikon in the i
Phone apps for some rason it is not listed under the apps for iPad but does install on an iPad.
http://snapbridge.nikon.com/  and click on the App Store icon.


As yet I have not managed to get The Snapbridge link to work to either my iPhone 4S or my iPad 3rd generation unit.
You can ONLY pair with one iOS device (such a rubbish implementation).

You need to go to Bluetooth settings and remove the camera device if a pairing fails.
Also you can only pair with one iOS device so using with another device requires you to delete the working device!!!

All this seems very unhelpful and I have raised a question with Nikon about the pairing process.


Notes:
If you want to pair it with the iPad, you first have to un-pair with the iPhone in Snapbridge by clicking on arrow next to the camera icon and "end pairing" then go into the iPhone settings and in the Bluetooth for the camera, click on "i" and "forget this device".  Then go into Snapbridge and pair with iPad.
