I have an EM10 here, and have tried the OM software to connect to the
camera, on my iPhone and iPad Pro, but as you say, it’s clunky and slow.
Great for remote access to the camera itself though.

The only other option is to connect directly to the camera using the USB
lead, or use an SD card reader.

Personally I’ve always used a dedicated SD card reader, a habit going back
to when I first got a digital camera 25 years ago (cameras themselves
weren’t well supported in MacOS back then).

I use a media card rotation system, so always remove a card, and use a
different one for each session. That way I always have the last two or
three sets of images on the cards should anything happen to my most recent
copies on my devices.

Those are basically your options, I don’t know of any third party stuff
that’ll give you wireless connection.
