Hi all -
I'm new here, but been around for a while on the sister site gopropilots.com.
This past weekend I got myself a mavic pro. I was looking at the Google Play store and found the Go 4 app for android but was really surprised to see the rating was a dismal 2.7. Looking at the first 50 or so reviews it appears that the majority of the complaints are for disconnects or the app crashing the phone to various degrees. A few comments even indicated that app for iOS if far more stable. At the time when I was reading the reviews (Sunday 6/18), I noticed that the latest update was from 2017-06-17 for v4.1.2. (Just looking now, the latest update is now 2017-06-20 but still for v4.1.2). And by the way, most of the negative comments is saw were from 6/18.
So, not having flown the mavic yet, were all of this negative comments really for v4.1.2, or were they for a prior version (I'm not sure if that would be).
For my current phone, I'm currently using the original OnePlus One running android v6.0.1. I'm contemplating on upgrading to either OnePlus 5 (which was supposed have been launched earlier today but I haven't caught up on that news yet) or the untested Essential phone.
If the Go 4 app isn't doing too well on Android, I've thought about using my GF's old iPhone 5s (which isn't in use since she upgraded to an iPhone 7) or get an iPad
mini 4 (which is currently on sale at Best Buy for $300). From what I've seen posted around, the iPad mini looks to big and clunky with the mavic'
s controller.
Your input is appreciated
