Newer versions of Android, like that on you Pixel 2 need you to give it permissions for whatever features that the app needs.. DJI Go 4 needs permissions for camera, contacts, location, microphone, phone and storage. If you go to Settings->Apps & notifications, then find DJI Go and select it...

Probably not a good idea to use possible knock-offs to judge how much quieter they are. Wait till someone gets ones that are for sure from DJI. The slightest difference in shape can make a huge change in sound quality.
