### 3/5 — Tutorial links broken

*2026-04-01, version 2.5.3*

iOS update broke your app tutorials. Please fix.

### 3/5 — Flight Report Errors

*2025-09-19, version 2.5.3*

The Flight Report shows the drone operating in the Southern Hemisphere. 

I can assure you I am in the Northern Hemisphere. Florida to be exact.

Also recorded an altitude of over 17,000m, 9000m and over 1000m. I don’t think the drone will fly that high. I haven’t flown the drone over 200ft.

Beyond that I am happy with the performance of the app.

### 3/5 — Beginner Drone

*2025-01-14, version 2.5.1*

I bought this drone to learn how to maneuver and fly for my content creation business. I’ve recently had issues with it not wanting to connect and fly. When it does fly it’s not steady. It will take off without any steering. Not sure if this an app problem or drone problem but I’m posting on both.

### 3/5 — HS720

*2024-07-19, version 2.4.8*

Work great at first then after take off drone does not stay still when hovering did not return home 10-15 feet away from me drone crashed in tree still testing

### 3/5 — App keeps crashing

*2024-01-12, version 2.4.3*

For some reason anytime I go to the camera settings to switch to 4K the app cuts off and closes. Any suggestions?

### 3/5 — Can’t access camera settings

*2023-12-30, version 2.4.3*

I hope a developer sees this and tries to fix it. I really love this drone and the way it works but there’s a slight issue with accessing the camera settings. Every time I try to access it, it kicks me out of the app and I can’t figure out why.

### 4/5 — App faulty

*2023-11-16, version 2.4.2*

My drone, 720E flys and responds well so long as I do not turn on the app.  One time I had my app on, phone in my pocket and I couldn’t figure out why the drone was acting crazy and would not respond to the controls.  Need help on this issue, Holystone.

### 2/5 — Wifi

*2023-01-05, version 2.3.9*

Mine will not connect to HolyStone wifi it doesn't even showit

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2022-06-05, version 2.3.8*

Instruction for App are minimal at best -wasted battery time trying to get different feature to work.  
My biggest complaint is that the App stores a lot of data (within the App) which cannot be deleted unless I delete the App (I mean ‘delete’ not ‘Offload’).   I have contacted tech support about this issue, and they continue to miss the point, insisting that the problem is related to the memory card in the actual Drone.

### 2/5 — Thought I was alone

*2022-05-04, version 2.3.7*

I have the same problem as other users. I am using an iPad and remote.
I take off fine, fly about 20’ out and can no longer rotate the drone.
I can fly quite a ways out, but afraid to. The signal and response is unreliable and have to retrieve on foot. I only fly it about 15 feet off the ground.
This was useless for my needs.
I paired the device again thinking that might fix it. Took it out, same problem.
At the end of my session, I began packing up. I turned off the iPad and to my surprise, the drone started responding.
I was even looking for a drone repair company or purchasing a new drone through another company.
I hope you get the bugs fixed soon

### 4/5 — Fpv mode splited screen..for VR goggles

*2022-04-11*

Just got one question...could you do an upgrade where the resolution of the splitted screen is higher than it is right now..???
I get along with the app but this issue with the Split screen resolution affects my experience...the drone does 2k video..why the poor screen resolution..ok its a split Screen-but couldnt you optimize this section of the app...
Thanks for noticing me!

### 1/5 — Update

*2024-04-17, version 2.4.5*

Since the update the flight restriction to 400 feet can not be overridden    So even if you have a commercial license- I do-  and need to go above 400 your stuck.     If you are next to a tower and need to fly to the top to inspect the top at 600 feet forget it.     Please put  an override option in so I don’t have to go buy a DJI
I chose your drones because of the simplicity- the great cost and camera resolution

### 1/5 — Video

*2024-02-02, version 2.4.3*

I have done all the updates to my phone and the app and every time I open the video camera filter it crashes the app. Deleted the app and re-uploaded it everything

### 1/5 — Keeps failing to connect.

*2024-01-10, version 2.4.3*

My Holystone 720E works great, but this app fails to remain connected. Drone flys and then about 25ft up “not connected “. It’s a shame, wished it worked.

### 1/5 — 4K video only recording in 720p

*2023-11-25, version 2.4.3*

As the title says. My drone is 4K 60hz capable and I select this in the apps settings. Though the quality looks horrible and that’s because when I record it and look back at the footage, it’s only 720p

### 1/5 — Will not connect

*2023-11-07, version 2.4.1*

I have successfully used this app with a Holystone several times.  I get to a job site and all the sudden it won’t connect.  Tried everything, reinstalled the app, swapped batteries, even tried it on my wife’s phone. Lost the job, thanks devs!

### 1/5 — HS700e won’t connect to camera

*2023-08-06, version 2.4.0*

Used to work fine and now it no longer connected to the camera. It’ll work for 15 seconds then freezes the image.  Makes this drone useless.  Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Can’t connect to HS700E’s camera nine out of ten tries, a piece of crap!

*2022-10-02, version 2.3.8*

Stay away!

### 1/5 — DO NOT GET A HOLYSTONE DRONE

*2022-05-01, version 2.3.7*

tl;dr: the drone crashed itself two times in a row.  so i was flying this drone, the weather was COMPLETLEY fine, and then the drone decides to completley leave the bike path and mow somebody’s lawn. when i picked it up one of the rotors was still turning and i could not emergency stop it. eventually it turned off and i tried again only to find that it went in CIRCLES and i wasnt even able to CONTROL IT!!! i could NOT emergency stop it so i had to make it go down and crash it into the grass. BOTTOM LINE: DO NOT GET A HOLYSTONE DRONE!!!!

### 1/5 — drone is suicidal

*2022-03-08, version 2.3.6*

tried to land an a wire and hit me

### 1/5 — Terrible (due to update?)

*2021-12-16, version 2.3.5*

Loss of signal , didn’t want to RTH, randomly circles and disregards controller commands or quickly reverts back to circling a random location . Afraid to use it out fear it will fly away ..

I have had no problems with my drone so far and I love it how it folds and how small it is but how durable it looks and feels.

### 5/5 — Great Customer Support

*2024-06-16, version 2.4.6*

My nephew needed his drone to show video, and to my embarrassment, local network got itself turned off somehow in app settings. Anyway I contacted Holystone through the app chat on a Sunday afternoon, AND THEY RESPONDED IMMEDIATELY!!! Unbelievable service, they were quick to point out my ignorance and boom! Working again. lol. Great support and he loves to fly his HS700E. Thanks again Holystone!
