Anyone got a Canon 6D camera? Mine won't consistently connect to phone.

I've got a Canon 6D camera (the original, not the Mark II, so it doesn't have Bluetooth). I've got the Canon Connect app on my phone, but it hardly ever connects. When it does work, it's fabulous and I love it, but mostly it doesn't. I thought this was a problem with my old phone (Samsung S8), but the problem is exactly the same with my new phone (Huawei P30 Pro). I've tried everything I can think of... restarting the phone, reconnecting the camera, uninstalling and reinstalling the app. This has wasted so much time. Is there a magic solution? Please? (I've also had occasional issues in a similar vein with my GoPro.)

(Should probably mention, the connection is supposed to be via the camera's WiFi. The phone can connect to the camera's WiFi network, yet within the app, it's not showing as connected.)
