### 1/5 — Trash

*2024-03-04*

App is absolute trash don’t waste your time or money. 
Trying to create missions to fly via waypoints it keeps saying you haven’t added enough waypoints (need two or more) when you’ve added the maximum allowed of 3.

**Developer response:** You have probably added Point of interest, not waypoint. Please read the users manual or check video tutorial before give us bad reviews for your error. Thanks

### 5/5 — Géode ce

Hi Michèle
You have the best apps, great job
Will you inclued geofence in the next update as you did with Mavic Maven
À québécois fan

### 5/5 — Good app, very easy to use even for new user on a 2nd hand Spark

*2020-05-19*

Bought myself a second-hand Spark, the DJIGO4 app is good, it’s ‘dronie’, ‘helix’ and ‘active track’ all seem great ideas (haven’t tried them yet) but the DJI app dramatically misses waypoint functionality ... This app fixes that 100%. I was a bit dubious about the cost, in that I hoped it was worth it. But after reading a couple of reviews and watching the tutorial adds for it on YouTube. I went ahead and purchased it. Well, I can a test that it certainly does everything as advertised... It very easy to use as well. Literally my Spark’s 3rd 4th & 5th flight have been flown using this app, without any mishap at all and I’m very new to the hobby (total of 7 flights now). The app did seem to lockup once loading a mission after the previous, but closing the app and opening again resolved it immediately (it was probably my error anyway). So if you’re looking for a waypoint app for the DJI Spark I’d recommend this one. Cheers Michele for a good app ✅

### 5/5 — Excellent functionality

*2020-04-25, version 2.6.1*

This breathed new life and excitement into my spark. Worth every penny!

### 2/5 — Start mission fail

*2019-10-26, version 2.4*

New to the app. Programmed Waypoint mission only 1mi radius. But keep getting start mission fail, over maximum flight radius. How do I fix?

### 5/5 — Waypoints are on point

*2019-08-07, version 2.4*

Great app. Thanks for creating this. Primarily got it for the waypoint function for our Sparks.
**Question: is there a way to make the gimbal tracking of the POIs smoother? The video is jerky when tracking

Thanks

### 5/5 — Works great

*2019-04-28, version 2.4*

Works great, thanks for adding POI - great interface 

Need an android version - this is the best user interface for a spark app. 

Looking forward to the next set of updates whatever they may be

**Developer response:** thanks for your feedback, keep working to add functionality and improvement to the app

### 4/5 — Could be a 5 star !

*2019-03-24*

Great App, it would be better if it had a search location icon so you can preplan missions off site, the same as GoogleEarth has.
It would then be a 5 star App.

### 4/5 — DJI spark

*2019-02-13, version 2.4*

Would give a 5 if I was able to reach a speed over 10 mph. Everything else works great.

### 1/5 — This guy needs to be taken to court!

*2019-01-27*

I wrote a review yesterday after having a fly away, only to find today it’s been deleted! Don’t download this garbage!!
You owe me a new drone!!

**Developer response:** Hi, 
I'm sorry for your "fly away" but:
1) i have not seen/delete any review, it's was probably automatically filtered out for what you have written in it
2)you will not change your mind, but i can tell that this kind of drone "fly by itself" and unluckly "fly away" with these drones sometime just happen for many reason for example: battery issue, props issue, firmware crash, barometer sensor issue, gps issue,compass issue and so on..
