Help ### 1/5 — Issues *2019-10-19, version 1.0* Doesn’t let me connect to drone, so i cant use my phone. Doesn’t connect to aircraft ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Phoenix App w/ iPhone *2023-12-14, version 1.2.2* The app would not allow me to access my drone, therefore, I could not see the aerial views from the drones camera. It’s nonfunctional. Not for iPhone and the newer 2.0 VTI Phoenix. ### 1/5 — Unlinking device *2023-06-10, version 1.2.2* How is this done and how to delete my account ### 1/5 — Horrendous *2023-06-06, version 1.2.2* Don’t even buy this drone It’s absolutely horrible, the app is awful and they obviously put no time into it just save yourself the money and just return your drone and get a different brand ### 1/5 — The biggest Disappointment ever *2022-02-13, version 1.2.2* I should have read the reviews before I bought this. This is THE worst drone to ever buy and be this expensive. Save the trouble and return it ASAP. Get your money back right now. Massive 4 sec delay on videos, no instructions, no set up, same as the other reviews on this product. No batteries for the controller, the drone and controller is made out of the cheapest plastic like it came from Family dollar or something. The features sounded cool for the price but Trust me. It’s not worth it. I’m returning mines. Not worth $250. It’s really like a $40-$50 piece of trash. ### 1/5 — Connection issues *2022-01-23, version 1.2.2* Had to go find a drone because the app crashed then couldn’t reconnect to see where the drone was ### 1/5 — App *2021-10-13, version 1.2.1* The app keeps shutting down while I’m trying to use it ### 1/5 — App consistently crashes *2021-10-12, version 1.2.1* It is impossible to enjoy your drone since the app can only work for about 39 seconds at a time. ### 1/5 — Good for...not much *2021-09-08, version 1.2.1* Bought this for Labor Day party to make a cool video. Everything seemed good until it wouldn’t record video. Then the pictures came out horrible when they would actually take pics. Next day I try the drone out after I didn’t get any pics of the party. Click up to fly and thing just takes off to the left. App crashed too many times. Removing the app and drone from my life. ### 1/5 — Seriously? *2021-09-07, version 1.2.1* Is this a joke? Have tried everything in the world and the app wont connect to my brand new drone. Upon further research, this seems to be a common problem. Well then i thought, ill go to there website and get some support/help. Lets all laugh together! The website as about as useless as the app. Returning this drone for a refund tomorrow ### 1/5 — Bought drone yesterday. Returning today. *2021-09-05, version 1.2.1* Let’s talk about the good parts first. Ok, that’s done. No instructions. No tutorial. Connection is intermittent and doesn’t follow a pattern. Doesn’t hold phone without it falling off. Can’t use bumper on phone regardless. No serial number. No website. No way to know if it has Remote ID. With phone attached you can’t push the launch button. Return to home sent it to the sky and wouldn’t let me manually bring it down so I hd to push the power button button on the remote letting it crash to the ground from 50 feet. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good wifi but late *2022-01-29, version 1.2.2* I have no problems with the wifi hood drone ### 5/5 — Finally fixed for IOS!!! *2021-10-26, version 1.2.2* Previously only worked on android devices. Now I can get it to work on all of my IOS devices! ### 4/5 — No issues works good *2020-02-16, version 1.1* It linked up within seconds and worked flawless only wish there was some more settings ### 3/5 — Drone review *2026-07-24, version 1.2.2* Drone is okay. You get what you pay for. Wally had it clearanced for a decent price. Had quite a few hiccups but once you figure it out, it’s not too bad. Definitely is worth less than 100 bands. 2nd drone. 1st acted insane and flew off with loss of control. Wrecked right into a brick wall. Nothing like my DJI. But for something to allow others to play with and learn. Plus not worry about losing it in a lake or high up in the mountains…worth using for scouting before taking up something more expensive. ### 3/5 — Update needed. *2024-07-04* The app runs fine when using but when I record, the app crashes during recording time. I am currently using iOS 17. I hope there’s an update to fix the crash problem but at least the video still records. ### 3/5 — No problem with app *2020-05-10, version 1.1* Just wish there was tutorial. And show a direction of drone it’s going on the map. Also something like a google maps or something on there. Can’t see the structures on the map. ### 2/5 — App Crashes *2022-04-03, version 1.2.2* The app just is not stable. It routinely crashes and loses connection. You can still fly the drone without the app but it certainly takes a lot of the fun out of flying. If I had known the app was going to be this bad I would have passed on buying the drone. ### 2/5 — Using my iPhone 12 Pro and the app keeps Crashing *2021-10-06, version 1.2.1* When I connect my drone to the Phone the App crashes each time. I restarted the phone and everything and still crashed I wish the app would be fix by next Week. ### 2/5 — App keeps closing by itself *2021-09-28, version 1.2.1* The app keeps closing by itself I have an iPhone 12 pro max iOS 15 ### 2/5 — Not good *2021-06-22, version 1.2* So I got the new drone and used this app for it most functions dosnt work like the follow me it said my drone wasn’t hovering in my case it was and the waypoint also dosnt work and few more update would be great btw I’m using iPhone 11 also under settings it would be nice if there was a video to explain the settings please up date the app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
