### 3/5 — Few issues

*2025-07-11, version 1.7.9*

I used this app a little while ago and it worked fine but recently I decided to use my drone again great bit of kit but the app is well lacking, camera keeps on freezing up, I have to use the controllers height and distance to get it to come back (yes I do have the auto return but I prefer not to use it unless an emergency) it shows my gps being fine, full star signal everything’s fine then the camera just freezes on a single point the app becomes useless I can’t touch anything it just freezes, I’ve had 18 stars connected (only 10 is needed) and it still happens! I want to get more footage, I want to use this app more but I can’t if it just doesn’t work I want to see what my drone sees, I can go about 30-40 meters up before the camera freezes at about 500 meters away and that is sadly not what I want, when I used it a while back the camera still worked at 120 meters up and 2000 meters away.

I hate to give this app a 3 star but if you can find a way to fix this I’ll make a new review and delete this one, I want to get the best out of my kit and be able to do what it should be able to.

### 3/5 — App cai direto

*2024-12-10, version 1.7.7*

App sai direto fora do ar 
Função 3D não funciona 
Era para ter uma experiência super legal pelo que o app promete 
Mais de tanta raiva que passo com ele fico aí na função do controle 
Melhorem por favor

### 4/5 — Judah

*2024-10-23, version 1.7.4*

It’s not too bad

### 1/5 — Calibration

*2024-08-06, version 1.7.4*

It won’t even let me press horizontal calibration or compass calibration it just doesn’t do anything when I press it so therefore it’s impossible for me to set it up is it to do with the fact I’m using an iPhone?

### 1/5 — Пофиксете баги

*2024-07-27, version 1.7.4*

Когда квадрокоптер не подключен ты заходишь в приложения все хорошо там и калибровка есть но ты не можешь его откалибравать потому что нет подключения и в настойках там дальность полета,висота полета и радиус полета ты можешь это настроить но когда нажмешь сохранить тебе напишет что устройство не подключено, когда ты его подключаешь в приложении нет не колибровки не настоек з регулировкой, место этого там пишет «Японская Рука» что это? Это так уже 2 з половиной года может вы хоть за это время сможете пофиксить баги,вы просто забыли про это приложение.

### 1/5 — Нема калібровки

*2024-03-22, version 1.7.2*

Немає калібровки летить не дальше 10 метрів

### 1/5 — 日本語モード不良？

*2024-03-20, version 1.7.2*

iOSで機体にWifi接続すると右上のメニューを開けた時「日本手」というメニューしか表示されず、機体の調整やキャリブレーションができない。接続しなければ出てくるというお粗末。
だからDJIじゃないとダメとか言われるんだよ。

### 1/5 — 0 Stars!

### 1/5 — Struggle All Around

*2023-07-01, version 1.6.5*

Trying to get this drone paired was a terrible thing. The drone in and of itself maybe a good one but trying to get it paired and calibrated took some time and yet it worked for one day and the next day it was back to the same old thing. This is one of the worst purchases I have done in quite awhile. Wish my husband had tried it when I first bought. Definitely would have sent it back for a full refund.

### 1/5 — Not connecting to droide

*2023-06-30, version 1.6.5*

### 1/5 — Junk app and no tech help ! Incompetent !!

*2023-03-20*

I have yet to hear to be expected from who designed app and drone made from real companies scrap parts ! Parts from 3 different drones I’ve figured out go figure ! The app will not work with the drone at all it links to my phone great and the controller perfectly but the app doesn’t want to connect to this junk !! So ya you get what you pay for and junk is for free ! I’ll just keep ooking for a better app

### 1/5 — Control issues

*2026-07-06, version 1.8.9*

I’m having issues trying to do the horizontal calibration, lol like the bottom on the screen is not configured to work or maybe the app is not the right one, recommendations please.

### 1/5 — Stuck on IPhone

*2026-06-01, version 1.8.9*

On my iPhone, it still stick in the vertical calibration mode, on Android, it doesn’t..

### 1/5 — Macht die Drone unbrauchbar

*2026-05-15, version 1.8.8*

Bleibt ständig im Kalibrierungsmodus hängen. Keine Nutzung der Drone mehr möglich. Obwohl sich die Drone manuell Kalibrieren lässt. Finger Weg

### 1/5 — App connection

*2026-01-27, version 1.8.7*

Can anyone get the drone to calibrate with the app ?? Or is that the problem

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2025-10-14, version 1.8.5*

tried it a couple years ago, Tapped upward as a test, it went over my house, over the neighbours house, never seen again.

### 1/5 — Malfuction

*2025-08-19, version 1.8.1*

Impossible to connect the application to the drone and therefore use the drone camera while the iPhone is well connected to the drone's wifi.

### 5/5 — Super App leicht zu bedienen

*2023-12-16, version 1.6.7*

Die App funktioniert und macht was sie soll. Natürlich ist sie nicht wie bei DJI, muss sie aber für den Preis der Drohnen auch nicht. Ihr müsst in das WLAN der Drohne gehen dann klappts auch oder mal die Anleitung lesen und verstehen 😋

### 5/5 — Prob not actually 5 *’s BUT…

*2023-08-18, version 1.6.5*

I don’t think 2.5 * is accurate anymore. At first (~3y ago) I couldn’t figure out how to use the app w the drone. However, I just pulled it out again and have been flying it lately with exceptional results! There may have been a problem before or else I wasn’t following the directions properly or certain steps, but I have been able to get this thing working, flying, and taking pictures. I cannot figure out how to switch to the bottom camera though? And the top camera must be manually adjusted prior to takeoff (or when it’s in reach). I got a second battery and they recharge up fairly fast.

### 5/5 — Junk App

*2023-06-05, version 1.6.4*

Won’t connect to my (still very functional) iPhone 8 Plsu. Horizontal calibrate buton won’t working. Send hepl. i want drone

### 5/5 — Works on my iPhone 13 pro

*2023-05-30, version 1.6.4*

Turned on drone. Turned on remote. Went to Wi-Fi  in settings on my phone and turned on Wi-Fi. After about 30 seconds the wi‑fi recognized the four DRC signal. Unsecured network.
 After compass, horizontal and vertical calibrations, it kicked in to a live shot. on my iphone.
 Went to the three bars next to the record button, chose video. Clicked the record button like you were making a normal video and it gave me a live stream and an awesome recording. Was able to download to my photos from my phone on my MacBook Air
