Ratings and reviews

Keeps crashing out on Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ and Galaxy Tab S4. Unable to complete drone jobs because of it. Sometimes resumes mission, othertimes wants to reset it. Not sure if it still captures images when the drone keeps flying while the app is crashed. UPDATE 11/28/2019: Although I had issues with the app. Tech support and customer service have been great to work with. Resolved my issues, responded in a timely manner, and really stepped up to help out. Thank you

I have been using the app since shortly after it was first released and it works great. It is dead simple to use and reliable on Note 8. I have had many instances when DroneDeploy was able to stitch very difficult maps (aerial coral or seagrass) when Pix4D could not. I am incredibly happy with the app and the support and I look forward to contour support coming out of beta. The only area I would love to see more support for is underwater orthomosaics. The capture method is the same even though it is not by a aerial drone and there is is a huge emerging market for seagrass and coral mapping.

Not ready for market. Often does not show you where the aircraft is. Does not show you how many satellites are connected. Does not show you your signal strength to the remote control. Still does not support Pano's. This is not anything new from the previous app version that was over a year old. Still does not create a flight log if the flight has not been completed. One difference that I noticed is now you cannot add flights to your queue so you're only able to fly one plan at a time. Terrible!
