Perhaps one of the most useful features of SnapBridge is its ability to automatically transfer a small version of every image captured on a Nikon camera to a paired smartphone. Just like when you use a computer to download the firmware and transfer it to a memory card that you then pop into your camera, the battery in your Nikon Z6 II or Z7 II needs to be fully charged.
The SnapBridge app now takes you through the steps for downloading and install the new firmware. You will now see a screen with the terms and conditions. The app will now show you the size of the firmware file and recommend that you download it over a Wi-Fi connection. Initially, the firmware is downloaded to your smartphone, before transferring it automatically to your camera.
Once the firmware is fully-transferred to your camera, the smartphone app is no longer required. When the firmware upgrade is complete, the camera will tell you to turn it off. You can then turn it back on and start using it as normal. The first step is to use the link to go to the Download Center and find your camera. You can do this either by selecting the category your camera falls into DSLR, Mirrorless, Compact or Action and then selecting the sub-category to reveal a list of models, or you can type the model name into the search bar.

For example, when the Nikon Z 6 and Z 7 were announced, they shipped with a certain firmware version. Later, the engineers were able to add new features. If you bought one of the cameras new at that time, it shipped with the firmware updated.
