My tello isn’t working

I hate this drone

Great little starter drone but customer support link broken!

The drone itself is a great little starter drone that is simple to fly and because of its size may not have some of the legal restrictions of larger drones (check local laws and restrictions carefully!)

The app on the other hand can be quite annoying! The battery meter icon is tiny and hard to read so you really have to look at it closely to avoid your drone “dropping out of the sky” and self landing wherever it is when the battery drops too far. This drone has no automatic return home functionality.

For some reason the app frequently closes back to the phone Home Screen on iOS 26.x (perhaps a compatibility issue?). When an error occurs it displays a link to “contact support”. The servers seem to be shut down! Not just “page not found “ but “unable to locate the server”! The same link seems to be on this app page.

Doesn’t work iOS 26

The app no longer shows the live feed with any iOS past 18.1

Meh it’s ok

The drone itself works fine, apart from when you crash it, then it breaks

結構良い

良い所 I 広告が無い ②動画や写真を撮る事が出来る ③操作が簡単 悪い所 ドローンのバッテリー消耗が早い 飛行中に電源が切れると落ちる「ドローンが」 コレはあくまでも僕の感想です よかったらドローンのバッテリー消耗をどうにかしてください🙇🏻ペコリ 追記ドローンが動かない人はバッテリーが奥まで刺さってないと思います あと画像共有は画像長押しでできたと思います 写真撮ってフリーズするのは、読み込みじゃ無いんですかiPhoneの元からあるあるやつでも フリーズ「読み込み」 しますよ

No longer works

No loner works with new iPhones. Unable to update firmware, either

Junk

App will shut down mid flight. What a disaster.

Randomly closes

Good to know when you get 35ft in the air, the app just shuts down, it takes a bit to get it back open, it’s got to play a 6 second animation graphic once you open it which ends up getting your drone stuck in a tree. Good job guys

Crash while flying

Multi times crashing while flying.

Bad

App constantly crashes

Super fun

It crashed a few times but still the best I lead it in the stairs to floor 2

APP Crash every several minutes at iOS26.2.1 iPhone13

At previous version iOS/iPhone it works well, now Tello app crash so often. Drone is still hovering, while I restart app, but it is frightening and frustrating .

It’s ok

Hard to connect it only works on some devices

Camera no longer works in the app

It seems that the camera in app has stopped working.

Great experience, but app keeps crashing.

The app crashing is the only flaw to the app. It always crashes in the worst situations. Like when I’m flying over my house or flying towards a fence. Please fix this for a 5-star rating. I think everyone would appreciate that. On iPhone by the way.

Pretty good

It works really well and is quite fun. But sometimes when I’m using it on my iPad, it crashes. Not sure if it’s the iPad’s fault or the apps fault. But something to keep in mind

Tello eduでカメラ映らない

ちょっと前までiOS18では正常に使えていた機体でもiOS26にアプデ後のアプリでは飛ばせても画像が映らない。(周辺光が暗いと出るからそもそも信号が届いていない?)
2台で確認したが自分の環境だけ?飛ばせはするので⭐︎2

Love it

Love the drone, so fun to fly, it was gifted to me by my moms uncle. Such an amazing drone, would highly recommend purchasing. 👏

Improve it

If you do anything other than letting it hover, it seems so that the app just crashes. So if I keep turning right for example, my app crashes and the drone keeps flying right causing it to crash into a wall and being a hazard. I am saying this with the latest version of the drone and app.

iPhone Airでカメラが映らない。

ご対応お待ちしてます!!
