Reviews of Drone Assist

  • It’s okay

    Seems to be a good app. The only issue I have is it appears to be zoomed in a small bit and cuts off the map and some of the buttons. Looks like it wants to be in landscape but I can’t find a setting to correct that so I guess some is just cut off. This would be a 4 star app if that was corrected and 5 stars if you did not need an account just to look at the app. Also need to correct some terms like “device ID” or “operator ID” and “pilot ID”. Allow us to mark recreational or part 107, maybe even a tic box per flight if you do both 107 and rec flights.

    The issue I have found is when you have bigger text or zoomed view the app can’t adjust so it just cuts off icons or keeps them off screen.

    Developer Response

    Hello ILMEDIC, Thank you for your detailed feedback. It really is apricated and will only help us improve Drone Assist. The issue you are seeing with the layout, may be related to the accessibility settings on your phone directly which you can change. We will also look to address this our side. You do not need an account to look at the airspace data, but of course if people want to use more advanced features like flight planning tools we do require an account. Again, we appreciate your feedback and will look to see where we can make improvements for the wider drone community. Fly Safe!
  • Pilot

    Can’t start a new mission.

    App says you must be a pilot. Please add one.

    I can’t find anywhere in the App where I can do that. Please help.

    Developer Response

    Hi Bird Rocker, Sorry to hear you have experienced this. To add a pilot, please navigate to the "You" section on the bottom bar, select "Profile" and you will find "Register as a Pilot" there. Thank you for your feedback. We have now produced a better journey for this for this to make this easier for future users. That will be deployed with our next release in the coming weeks. We hope this helps you and you can start to enjoy the App. Safe Flying!
  • Can’t use without an account. No thanks.

    Can’t even get into the app without creating an account. Not doing that.
