Do I need new Phone

[goridergo]

Hi everybody,
Just got my MA2 Air yesterday. Today I wanted to download the DJI Fly App but as I got to the Google Play Store it told me my Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime is not compatible with this APP.
Does that mean I have to get a new phone now do be able to fly the MA2 Air.
Any help will be really appreciated.

Make sure you have upgraded it to android 6.0 or above. According to samsung you should be able to upgrade to android 8. your device should work(how well is another question)

Go to DJI and download the apk to your phone. It might load. Otherwise you need a device with both 64 bit architecture and 64 bit Android. The big list on this board with all the Koolaid phones first is incomplete. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8" SM T-290 woks and only cost $179 Cdn at Costco.

Thanks a lot. Ended up getting a new phone and all good now.

The issue is the DJI Fly app for Android requires a 64 bit OS. For me I had a Moto G5 Plus with Android 8.1. Even though the hardware can support a 64 bit OS the Android 8.1 from Motorola is only 32 bit, so it was a no go for the G5. I ended up getting the Samsung Galaxy A71. I really like having an ultrawide screen (20:9 aspect ratio @ 6.7") when using the Fly app.
