## What is DroneMate?

DroneMate is a regularly updated map of the recreational drone laws for every country in the world. The information is pulled from official sources and contacts so you know where you can fly, the rules to abide by, and the places where you should leave your drone at home. DroneMate can save you time, money, and hassle at customs as many countries (even major tourist destinations) won't let you bring a drone into the country. The map is available offline so you don’t need an Internet connection to use DroneMate when you’re traveling.

*U.S. state laws are also included.

*The information is pulled from official sources - there is a lot of misinformation about drone rules and laws floating online - DroneMate gives you a clear listing of the laws, rules, and places where they haven't been completely defined yet.

*Shows information for specific cities, touristic sights, and other areas where drone use has special rules or restrictions.

*DroneMate is updated regularly in real-time with information obtained from a number of official sources.

*DroneMate has a user comment system where travelers can add their experiences droning, importing, and dealing with authorities in each specific country. The comments are useful in situations where the authorities themselves are confused or unaware of the laws, non-common situations, and other anecdotes that can help other travelers.

*Users can also post questions in the comment section for other travelers or the administrator.

*All comments are rated by other users, so the most useful, informative responses are highlighted on top of the others.

After a 30-day free trial period a $24.99/year purchase will be applied to your iTunes account following confirmation of a Premium upgrade. Subscriptions will automatically renew unless canceled within 24-hours before the end of the current period. You can cancel anytime with your iTunes account settings.

### 1/5 — Carte totalement nulle sans information, appli inutile

*2025-05-22*

Chers droniens, utilisez plutôt l'appli Drone-Spot car ici il n'y a aucune information de zones interdites et de plafond maximum sur la carte, même en zoomant.

Mérite zéro étoile, mais je suis obligé d'en mettre une.

### 2/5 — 恕我直言，没啥用

*2023-03-21*

这些法规都是google一下就能找到的东西，卖30块？这都是网上可以搜到的免费信息啊。实际当地能不能飞还要看具体城市具体区域的规定，这里很多国家只有国家规定，不够细。而且全英文吧。

### 1/5 — 地点标识严重错误

*2020-12-25*

香港，澳门以及是中国固有领土，程序在国家后面加上特别行政区的名字，是极其严重的错误行为。请立即更正。

### 1/5 — 이 사람들이 지금 장난하나...

*2020-01-11*

하다못해 무료앱도 금지, 제한, 고도제한, 자유비행 등 지역마다 지도에 다 표기하고 있는데 무슨 구글 지도같은거 틱 걸어놓고 그 나라법령 간추린것만 적어놓나... 유료가 뭐야. 무료보다 더 나은 정보와 서비스를 기대하고 결제하는거 아닌가?? 성의가 없잖아요 성의가

### 1/5 — No value.

*2019-11-02*

no stars... only official available laws.. nothing on the map. feedback to the author was classidied as spam.

### 1/5 — Deceiving!

*2019-04-27*

Incomplete at best! Some info misleading, and on top of it it is not updated! Shame...

### 1/5 — Solo Ingles.

*2019-02-27*

28 idiomas, pero toda la información solo en inglés. 😔

**Developer response:** Agregaré las versiones en español; hágame saber los condados que desea. Voy a tener esos actualizados primero: https://foxnomad.com/dronemate-feedback/

### 2/5 — Not what I expected

*2019-01-29*

Sorry, but was not what I was led to expect.  Maybe good for international drone use.  Does not give you INFO on drone bans or regulation in a specific area or town.  Much of the area in Corpus Christi is prohibited or banned but Drone Mate does not give you that info to help you to know where to be able to go to get out of restriction.  Wasted my $$$ on this app.

### 5/5 — To fly or not to fly, that is the question!

*2018-12-06*

Great app that tells you where and where not to fly your drone.  Even if you are not necessarily a creep but still own a drone, this app will help you fly real high in places where this behavior is considered not creepy and acceptable.  It also allows you to avoid places where you might not be allowed to fly your drone.

Jokes aside, it is a good and functional app!
