DJI GO 4

[masterangler]

No matter what I do, I can't get DJI Go 4 to run on anything I own and I own a lot of different tablets and all of the different controllers I can. I fly a Mini 3 Pro, and Air2S, a Mavic 3 Pro, a Mavic 3 Thermal and I am going nuts trying to get this app to work. It's downloads fine on everything I have but I can't get past the sign up / sign in stage. Anyone have ANY advice?

What drone are you trying to use? GO4 only works with legacy products like the Phantom 4 series, the original Mavics and the Mavic 2's.

Use DJI Fly for those drones, not DJI GO4.

@Felix le Chat is entirely correct, GO4 is legacy software for older drones. Doesn’t work for anything newer than Mavic 2 series and original Mavic Air.

None of the aircraft you listed use DJI GO4 app, so you should be in good shape.

Same. Even an installation that was running before, now fails on current Android updates.
My guess is that DJI has abandoned it as old software and does not maintain it on newer Android releases.

GO4 is still working. It is an excellent flight app and has been fully featured and bug-free for years now. No need for DJI to remedy any glitches in the code or issue a new version with more features or user settings so no point updating it past v.4.3.54.

Try installing one of the older versions archived on reputable APK servers.

If what's happening is similar to my recent experience: this failure is likely down to Android security updates with the screen device(s) you're using.

I got around the problem by turning on 'allow 3rd party apps' and more importantly turning off Google play protect. I don't think DJI voluntarily withdrew both GO4 and DJI FLY from the play store.

Thanks. I had turned on allow installation of 3rd party apps and then one older version (4.3.62) was installable.
Turning off Play-protect did not have any effect on either tablet or phone.
The fact that the previously installed and working app on the tablet now fails - certainly points to some change in Android treatment.
Yet, on a second (older) tablet, a similarly old and working version still works.
I'm thankful for that!
Note - my situation is different than the OP here - his seems to run but not sign-in, mine does not run, and I posted that on another thread.
