If you have the latest SnapBridge app for Nikon, it should work.
It's funny with the new Nikon D3500. My wife will go to use it and she'll REFUSE to take it off "Auto". When I use it, I play around and use Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Programmed Auto* (with the asterisk -- allows you to still make fine adjustments to the camera's programmed choosing for Aperture & Shutter).
