This doesn’t even show traces of the drone at all!

Won’t lock in

I tried all 9 of my drones and this app would not lock it in to any of them. On my iPhone nor my Android cell. No instructions on how to use the app either. I do better at getting them back by putting my name and cell number on the top of the drones. Always get a call back.

No Instructions

App does not work, Bill has not done anything to this in over 3 years and even fails to give an instruction manual with it. This type of garbage really needs to be removed from the Apple App Store to make room on the apple servers for apps that do actually work.

No instructions.. abandoned app

This app hasn’t been updated in 3+ years.
No instructions on how to use it and despite messing with the app for a while and having the drone feet away, it didn’t detect it. I do not see how this is useful. Waste of time. Uninstalled.

Worthless

This app couldn’t find my drone sitting 5 yards away. No instructions for use.
