The user interface is pathetic, and you’ll be able to understand why you got this drone for penny’s. Shame on Apple for approving this application on the App Store. This app is clearly violating App Store Guidelines 4.2. ### 2/5 — The problems with the app *2020-11-09, version 1.1.1* Honest the app is well make no sense and the camera looks cheap ### 3/5 — App could be better *2020-05-31, version 1.1.1* No instruction on how to use the app and regularly crashes when trying to view recorded video. ### 1/5 — Video error *2020-03-30, version 1.1.1* Can’t watch my videos without the app crashing and can’t save them to my phone please help ### 1/5 — Terrible drone *2020-02-01, version 1.1.1* Drone is terrible Christmas present.child still disappointed and it’s February ### 1/5 — Does not work on iPhone *2019-12-29, version 1.1.1* Will not connect to drone. ### 3/5 — Video problem *2019-12-26, version 1.1.1* I can’t see my videos without the app crashing and I can’t save to my iPhone. 🙄 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t get this *2025-07-22, version 1.1.1* I only have a better 3 inch wide screen so everything‘s extra extraordinarily crowded in with this app with all options and also because of that I couldn’t really see a point and I ended up crashing into a tree. My drone is not in the best condition anymore overall don’t get this app. ### 1/5 — The drone is terrible *2023-08-16, version 1.1.1* I got the drone for my birthday and when I went to use it it was so confusing . When I went to use it it went straight up and flew away I cloud not find it . ### 1/5 — App *2022-04-03, version 1.1.1* How do u connect the camera to the drone it has no directions except connect the craft wifi to the phone which is what I did and it just comes up as a blank screen ### 1/5 — Terrible *2021-10-03, version 1.1.1* This thing broke almost instantly. It drives me insane and I can’t even get the camera to work. I hate this so much and getting that drone was a waste of money ### 1/5 — Test the drones before selling them *2021-06-07, version 1.1.1* I’m upset, I just wasted fifty dollars on a faulty drone that would not work. And, when I finally got it to work, it went up and then flew away, so when I tried getting it to stop flying, it kept going. They really need to test their drones before selling them to stores and then getting out to a new owner. Also make sure they respond to the controller and shuts down after the remote is turned off. ### 1/5 — N O NO NO NO NO NO *2021-05-07, version 1.1.1* It doesnt tell you how to use the app ### 1/5 — This app is the WORST *2021-01-14, version 1.1.1* This app is the WORST I was playing with my drone and then I wanted to try using this app again and then all of a sudden my drone stopped ### 1/5 — iPhone 11pro can’t connect to sky rider *2020-12-28, version 1.1.1* I can’t seem to find the Sky Rider xxxx when connect to WiFi. ### 1/5 — Not connecting *2020-12-26, version 1.1.1* Can’t find signal ### 1/5 — Connecting Wi-fi issue *2020-12-12, version 1.1.1* I can’t connect to “Sky Rider xxxx”. Nothing appears when I check my WiFi. How can I connect the craft without connecting your WiFi. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — What drone is it *2024-07-11, version 1.1.1* I don’t know if the drone is little or big because I have a little drone next to me so is it big or little? ### 5/5 — Fix the camera *2021-05-16, version 1.1.1* The camera isn’t working please pretty please fix the camera ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-05-25, version 1.1.1* This app(and the drone) is the best thing that’s ever happened to me. It was a little confusing at first, but then I read the drones manual for the app and it made perfect sense! Nice app! ### 5/5 — Photos/Video *2020-04-01, version 1.1.1* Where do the photos/videos save after you take them?? ### 5/5 — The best *2020-03-08, version 1.1.1* It is the best thing ever I can see everything straight and my camera is good and I even got an iPhone ### 4/5 — If your looking for instructions read this *2021-05-17, version 1.1.1* Listen you probably bought a drone and came into this app if you’re trying to say that this app has no instructions well you’re wrong when you bought the drawer there should be a book a white one that says thunderbird go to page 5-9 for drone controlling (or probably something else) and 16-19 (make sure to read all I maybe got it wrong) and well I don’t have to explain. Be safe! ### 4/5 — Please add a battery percentage. *2021-01-27, version 1.1.1* Honestly, this app is amazing. I love to go flying my drone with this app, and would recommend it. But, i feel like you guys could add a battery percentage for how much the battery is at. It would help a LOT!!! For example, if im flying my drone, and I have it out pretty far, and all of a sudden, BAM! My drone crashes because it emergency landed, and I didn’t know what the battery percentage was at. I would LOVE, to see this small feature in the future. I will also change my review to a 5 star review if I saw this. Anyway, thanks!! ### 4/5 — iPod not Androin *2020-12-06, version 1.1.1* I have the Sky Rider Firebird 2. This app works great with my iPod but when I tried this app on my Android it says the drone is "connected, no internet". Yet the signal is EXCELLENT and link speed is 54Mbps. I have 4 stars because there's no instructions for the different tabs. ### 3/5 — View what drone is seeing *2020-12-27, version 1.1.1* I can’t look on what the drone is looking At and they need instructions🙄 ### 3/5 — How do I post saved video? *2020-07-01, version 1.1.1* Great entertainment but I can’t figure out how to post saved video to my FB account. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
