1. 4/5Easy to use but many features missing, please update this app!

   I love DJI products. Hands downs the best for your money you’ll get. Especially with the Mavic air 2. Love the drone, have no problems with it, and I love the app, very easy to navigate but there’s a ton of features missing that would make things so much easier to use. The gimbal speed and smoothness needs to be updated. It’s pretty hard to get a smooth shot when rotating that wheel and there’s no way to change that. Add a few more shortcuts on the front screen and make use of the FN button as a triple click for all 3 options! Also the sounds on the remote are very loud and obnoxious at times, if there’s a way to lower the volume for that, it would help a ton. Adding 4K to every option would be amazing too! Lastly I would highly suggest using more of the features from the previous app integrated onto this new app! DJI, if you’re reading this, I love you and love your products but please adjust your app to make flying a much pleasant one. I, and a few others will re-rate your app to 5 stars if these fixes are done! Anyways happy flying everyone! :)

2. 1/5If you need to fly the Mavic 3 with this app, forget Biang the Mavic 3

   This is the DJI app used to fly the Mavic 3 drone. It is terrible. I am using it with the stock control and an iphone. My gripe is not with the drone, which seems very good, but with this app. The controls are much less intuitive than those with the Mavic 2 pro's app. Some features are difficult to find and others simply do not work. The biggest problem is the lag. When flying, if you click on the phone screen to start or stop a video, for example, the lag time is intolerable. I am not talking about one or two seconds. I have timed it and sometimes the lag EXCEEDS ONE FULL MINUTE! That is correct, you are not reading this incorrectly. Click on the button to start recording video and wait.....and wait.....and wait....and wait....try again because you think maybe you missed touching the button.....and wait......and wait......try again.....and wait.....and wait. Then all of the sudden, it shows that it has begun recording. Then good luck stopping the video recording. Just be patient, it could also take 30-60 seconds after trying to stop the video before it stops. This is absolute crap. Im glad I kept my Mavic 2 pro, I am just back to flying that, and I will return the Mavic 3. Luckily I purchased it with my Amex, which has protection for things like this. Do not even contemplate buying the Mavic 3 unless they fix this problem. Also, it is ridiculous that DGI does not synchronize experience points, flight times, and distances across their different apps and drones. That is utterly stupid.

3. 1/5DJI go apps DON’T work. Fly app only for mavics

   The DJI Fly app work just fine but DOESN’T support the phantom series just mavic series. In camera mode it won’t connect to the phantom. I tried the other DJI apps like DJI GO/DJI GO 4.0 for a couple hours to sign back into my old account then trying to create a another account and it’s TOTALLY impossible to get through the next steps no matter how difficult you set your password it just vanishes and got to constantly keep choosing a different password. Also by trying to get pass the password part you have to get pass the China Mainland password part which is just RIDICULOUS. Like China took over their apps and us US people can’t access their GO apps. They need the App Store to remove those apps or DJI FLY app if they drone company won’t let ALL different drones use that app. Me and my dad was trying to get back into flying our phantom 3 professional & phantom 4 two years later and now cannot access the DJI GO apps anymore we are currently stuck in a pickle in which app actually works for our drones. I wish anybody else that has the same issues as us to find a app that is compatible for their drones, it may end up being a off brand company app. I’ve tryed a few of those and NOTHING happened. Good luck you guy….

4. 4/5Great beginner app

   This is a wonderful app for beginner drone operators. I just got my first drone and found this app straightforward and easy to fly my Mavic Mini. The app has everything that a novice operator would need to fly their drone without feeling overwhelmed with the telemetry data. The quick shots feature is especially helpful with getting very cinematic looking footage of the subject with just a couple taps in the app. I am (mostly) happy with what DJI has done with this app. There are however shortcomings. First, the quickshots are very limited in scope. Few other quick shots would have been nice. Also there is no subject tracking feature so the subject has to be stationary for the drone to capture them in quick shots. Thirdly, the RTH height is buried in the menus. Would be nice if I could set the RTH height prior to each flight depending on the surroundings I am flying in. I honestly think DJI should implement an advanced mode in the app that operator could switch to as they become more experienced. Hopefully they will continue to improve the functionality of this app.

5. 1/5Difficult to go from one drone to another & the options buried in menus

   Not always intuitive and no SDK for Mavic 3? 😡 Even though it’s been some time now that the Fly app has been out, and DJI has added some good features, it is not easy enough to get to the features! Since many options are buried in menus, and some in strange places as well (like battery is under “Safety” 😳) it can be very difficult to understand whether or not a specific option or setting is possible with different drones, especially when going from one drone to the next. It’s also very difficult to understand why, after spending so much money on the Mavic 3, that they chose to withhold the fact that they will apparently never come out with an SDK that allows us the ability to use that drone to the max. Do they really think I’m going to sell this one just to by the appropriate Mavic 3, just to be dissatisfied again when they leave some other feature out? Especially with the issues with not being able to use DJI everywhere because of the China connection? Unless DJI listens to its users and provides an SDK for the Mavic 3, basic customer loyalty, I’m setting my flying sights somewhere else for my next drone purchase. 😢 Sad but true!
