### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2026-07-04*

Garbage, this app does not support anything. Send you to their website to buy a drone when I paid for this app to control my drone, just robbed me for 8.00 dollars. IT’ CLEARLY A SCAM!

**Developer response:** Hi, I'm sorry the app didn't work for you, but "scam" is not accurate, and I owe both you and other buyers a clear picture.

FlyToDiscover has been on the App Store for years and is used every day to control Parrot Bebop drones from an iPhone or iPad, either via the drone's own Wi-Fi or through a SkyController 2 connected by USB. That is what the app does, and what your $7.99 pays for.

The website link you saw is in the About section. It points to FTD company. If you already own a Bebop, this app is your controller for it.

If your Bebop 1 or Bebop 2 doesn't show up in the app, that is almost always a Wi-Fi or permission setup issue, and often a simple fix. Email us with:
• your drone model (Bebop 1 or Bebop 2)
• your iPhone/iPad model and iOS version
• what happens when you power the drone on and open the app

I answer personally, usually same-day.

If you'd still prefer a refund, App Store purchases can be refunded through Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com within the standard refund window. Any refund request you send directly to me will also be approved on my side.

Stefano

### 1/5 — Really bad app

*2021-12-25*

Don’t waste your money on this app it doesn’t connect to drone you have to be connected to your home Wi-Fi to fly your drone how does that work if I’m 10 miles away could you explain me that Mr. genius

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry for the confusion — the Bebop creates its own Wi-Fi network, you connect your phone to "Bebop2-XXXX" (not home Wi-Fi) and fly within the drone's own range. Version 1.8.2 (just released) rewrites the Wi-Fi detection so the app reliably sees the Bebop once you're joined to that network. Please update and give it another try.

### 1/5 — Controller Issues

*2019-06-28*

My sky controller 2 connects but I turn the drone on and I get nothing from the app.  Controller disconnects when drone is turned on.  Why?

**Developer response:** Hi, sorry for the trouble. The SC2-connects-but-app-sees-nothing pattern was the Wi-Fi detection bug between the SkyController and the Bebop. Version 1.8.2 (just released) rewrites that detection and the controller-disconnect-on-drone-power path is also hardened. Please update FlyToDiscover and try again: SC2 first, then power the Bebop.

### 4/5 — Sky controller 2

*2019-04-25*

Can't seem to get it to connect to my sky controller 2 at the moment not seen any updates apart from that im just using it to do 360 photos which it does a good job of but bought it to connect with the sky controller 2 but not connecting so a lot of money for something that doesn't work fix this and it will be a good alternative

**Developer response:** Hi Alan, the wait paid off — version 1.8.2 (just released) rewrites the SkyController USB detection so the SC2 + Bebop 2 chain pairs correctly. Plug the iPhone into the SC2 via USB (not Wi-Fi), power on the Bebop and update FlyToDiscover from the App Store: you should be able to fly without sticking to 360 photos only.

### 1/5 — Non scaricatela

*2019-03-20, version 1.6.5*

App non funzionante su skycontroller 2, 9€ buttate. Peccato che Applestore faccia vendere queste App senza avere certezze di funzionamento. Per me, meriterebbe zero stelle. Ora aprirò contestazione per rimborso.

### 5/5 — Help

*2018-12-22*

It’s not letting me use it with my sc 2p

**Developer response:** Hi, thanks for the rating. The SC2P (SkyController 2 Power) detection was the same code path as the SC2 — version 1.8.2 (just released) rewrites SkyController USB detection for all variants, including 2P. Plug the iPhone into the SC2P via USB, update FlyToDiscover from the App Store and the controller should be picked up.

### 5/5 — Useing FTD with Bebop Drone.

*2018-10-14*

Works grate , love it .

### 1/5 — Crashed

*2017-12-23, version 1.5.0*

Appena ho comprato l’app l’ho provata con il mio bebop2 power e skycontroller 2. Ho provato a fare un panorama 360 gradi, il drone ha eseguito tutto il ciclo di scatti, purtroppo però quando ho provato a scaricare tramite Wi-Fi il risultato dell’acquisizione immagini il programma installato su iPhone 6s ha crashato! Non c’è modo di scaricare nulla, nemmeno una semplice immagine, ogni volta che si cerca di scaricare le immagini il programma si chiude inspiegabilmente.

### 5/5 — Info applicazione

*2017-09-17, version 1.5.0*

Salve a tutti, ho scaricato questa applicazione tramite il mio ipad2 per poter pilotare il be-bop drone 1....funziona tutto...solo che quando faccio i video non mi fa vedere la diretta sullo schermo del iPad ....qualcuno di voi mi potrebbe aiutare per risolvere il problema? Grazie anticipatamente

### 3/5 — Die Funktionen nur im direkten Steuermodus

*2017-06-25*

Die App funktioniert im ganzen sehr gut, auf dem iPhone läuft sie reibungslos und auch die Zusatzfunktionen wie "follow me" und "orbit me". Die Spracherkennung arbeitet reibungslos, ist jedoch eher eine Spielerei, da eine präzisere Steuerung doch mit der Hand möglich ist.
Die Minuspunkte sind ganz klar, dass keine der ZusatzFunktionen mit dem Skycontroler 2 funktionieren. Da beschränkt sich die Bedienoberfläche auf die Basics und dient als Monitor.

**Developer response:** Hallo Barabarcus, danke fürs detaillierte Feedback. Mit 1.8.2 (gerade veröffentlicht) wurde die USB-Erkennung des SkyControllers neu geschrieben — auch der SC2 wird jetzt von Follow Me, Orbit, Watch Me und der Sprachsteuerung unterstützt, nicht mehr nur im direkten Modus. Bitte aktualisiere FlyToDiscover im App Store und probier es erneut.
