Ratings and reviews

The app itself is very good. The reason I only give it three stars is the unscrupulous way it is advertise. The app is fairly expensive at $29.99, but wait if you want mission planning and Geotaging you have to pay an additional $30.00. They don't tell you this in the video or the published literature. I would have to say that is dirty business practice to lure you in and then punch you in the gut. SidePilot for Apple is just as good, not quit as pretty, but it sells for $12.99 and works really

Bought and connected the app to my solo. Almost seemed too easy. Everything seems to work other than my camera feed (I'm almost positive it's user error). It's nice to have something that doesn't require a PHD to install and use. Great job! I'll add that 5th star when I figure out the video feed!

Honestly worth the price. To see your gopro on your phone as you fly, Change some settings of your drone around, and able to get warnings to talk to you. It's great. Not to mention the customer service. They emailed me back within 2 days and I was able to fix my problem. (To get through the preflight update-if you ever factory reset your drone- you will have to install some software using directions on the web.)
