Requires too much personal info to fly drone

Requires phone number

BUG RIDDEN COST ME TIME AND MONEY WASTED ON SITE DISASTER 4YRS NOW

Disaster. Each update breaks more flights and wastes my days time money out on site. Zero support. No one to talk to. Rubbish experience. Unbelievable!

Many bugs

I’m still mid mission, hours later.

:’(

It looks great but It’s kicking me out please fix that issue :’(

No for Drones

This doesn’t control drones …not sure what this is but it doesn’t work.

?

Why do I have to create business account to use this app? It’s just a toy…

Needs work

So you don’t see the full resolution of a map on your iPhone or IPad unless you go to the website and view from there directly. Uploading files from a flight directly from SD card to an iPad or iPhone is glitchy along with unreliable. If you doing it from scratch like wanting to drop files directly on to the app you can’t. Basically anything besides export and sharing data that already exist your gonna need a computer.

Misleading Air2S Support

Unusable with Air2s due to frequency of errors.

This app crashed our Mavic Air 2

Mission was flown, didn’t take one picture during flight, it wouldn’t let me take manual control of the drone , wouldn’t stay at height set , after mission flown instead of staying in one spot or landing it descended to half the height and took off full speed into trees, I do not recommend this faulty app if you value your drone

Great and super intuitive

Fantastic user experience. Very streamlined

👎🏻

Se tilda enseguida no es posible ni arrancar …. No pierdan tiwmpo

Project stopped mid project

While app displayed “change battery and continue” message, the app finalised flight half way into a 80 minute flight

Team awareness issues

Not working again, iOS 13P max

Can’t without DroneDeploy!

The best thing to happen to UAVs since UAVs!

Cool

I know mission planner really well. It’s what I work off but this is fun and easy. You can get a mission up and going to five minutes.

One start just because there aren’t a lot of other options

I’ve been using a Mavic 2 and GSPro for a while, but with the recent firmware update with Remote ID, it was no longer supported, so I had to use DroneDeploy. This app fails on numerous fronts…It FAILS to resume a mission if more than one battery is required. When I try to exit automatic landing, it still persists, even if I close the application and disconnect my iPad - PILOTS BE WARNED OF IMPRECISE AND AGGRESSIVE LANDINGS!! Be ready to manually catch a fast descending drone. I attempted to set the camera settings in DJI GO4, but drone deploy overrode the parameters anyway and used a shutter speed WAY too low for mapping that resulted in my imagery having motion blur. It also fails to capture the required images at the preprogrammed overlap, which makes basic mapping unbelievably challenging. I used an iPad Gen6 running the latest iOS, but the app is extremely slow if I’m lucky enough for it not to crash at all.

I’m not sure how anybody is having any success with this application. Unfortunately Pix4D capture just doesn’t have a lot of settings to control…

Not opening

Used this app on my smart phone and my Samsung tablet with no issue. Now installed on my iPad and it only goes blue screen and close it self.

Automated flights and offline flights aren’t too great

The app says I have 15/10 offline flight plans when there aren’t even any saved

Air 2S issues

No matter what I do, my Air 2S keeps freezing during a mission - saying “Calibrating Camera Focus”. I’ve been in contact with DJI support for over a week going through all kinds of tests and even calibrated with DJI Assist to no avail.
They his app is now useless to our needs.
Really disappointing.

Almost lost drone

Software stopped showing the path of the drone with the little blue triangular figure. That was a bit scary.
