Ratings and reviews

If it could connect to my Tello Talent it would be an amazing app. I spent hours trying to make the app connect to TT. I watched youtube videos, read instructions, searched for error mistakes but without any result. If you connect first to the Tello's RTM wifi, the app shows an error web page and does nothing. If you first open the app and then try to connect to RTM wifi, the app initializes properly but unable to connect to Tello's wifi. I decided to look elsewhere.

The app is good all in all, for anyone (like myself) who wants to learn how do basic coding it is amazing, but as I've seen in comments bellow, the biggest issue I have is that it doesn't have the camera option, what is the point of this app for a tello if I can't run the camera, as of yet I haven't found a viable way. Please make that option available, and I think people will be more inclined to rate with 5 stars like me 😁

App looks great. The variety of functions and an ease of use is amazing, but... There's no saving missions locally, no warning when creating new mission (this is related to no mission saving feature), and I couldn't find any access to sensors.
