### 1/5 — Garbage App Ever

*2026-07-18*

I’m trying to connect with Drone since last 2 weeks and this Garbage HF UFO app still not let Connect with Drone. As I follow all the instructions they telling in the Operating Guid Paper, not even single instruction on that app to follow. They Just Keep Asking Me To Do WiFi Settings & Bluetooth Settings and Want To Let Me Turn On My Precise Location. Before Setup They Need a Location, Why ? This is Such a Garbage App. Without Device You Can Fly Drone, Also Not Let You Setup Obstacle Avoidance Thru Remote Also. What a Shameless. 
Hope Admin of This App Can This You Can Solve This My Drone Connection Problem Thru The App. Thx.

### 2/5 — App and controller

*2026-05-29*

Once you access the app you still don’t have 100% of function. Settings don’t work, follow mode does not work nor the palm setting. Basically the app is useless cause you can still fly the drone with out it

### 3/5 — It’s okay.. I guess?

*2026-03-15*

I’m a IOS user but the app kept telling me about how the WiFi wouldn’t connect and I couldn’t find the WiFi to the drone. The controllers were fine so was the drone its self. I hope the WiFi gets fixed..

### 4/5 — 连不上汽车

*2026-03-11*

就是下载了挺好的，为什么我那个小汽车连不上它呢？他们俩是一排的可以手机摇红。

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all

*2026-03-03, version 2.7.7*

Drone broadcasts wifi, connected phone to wifi, app says no wifi connection.  Hand controller also doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Don’t work

*2026-02-21, version 2.7.7*

Can’t connect

### 3/5 — Not hard to connect.

*2026-02-03, version 2.7.7*

So there are some bad reviews here. I saw these when I came to download the app. I think unfairly. I had zero issues connecting the device to my iPhone. 
I’ve given it 3 out of 5 as it’s a cheap drone I knew this before purchase. The camera quality is not great. It’s a flimsy design. But it works, flying is easy and it basically does exactly as it claims to do. 
It might help me decide to buy a decent one or not.

### 1/5 — 0₫

### 2/5 — Sketchy app

*2026-01-19*

I got this drone and it don’t even got a company in it, I could already tell this drone was pretty cheap, after all, everything in drone it’s basically 98% plastic and the price being ridiculous. I would say the use the drone. I’ve seen the reviews and I’m not trying to get my money “stolen”. Just use the drone itself.

### 1/5 — Не работает приложение

*2026-01-10, version 2.7.6*

Не работает приложение( не выходит картинка
