I find that most drone pilots make two big mistakes related to this. First, they believe they can run their controller on a smartphone that isn't an Apple product. DJI specifically states to use iphones or ipads. The IOS system is the best for this and runs more accurately. Android is not so good, and can cause flight failure too.Second, allow the drone to hover for a half minute after it launches, so it can get its fixes. My drone always RTH withing 6 inches, even in light breeze.
I think you have completely misunderstood the "Made for iPhone" sticker that is on many of DJI's packaging. This doesn't mean that DJI is specifically recommending iPhones over Androids. This is simply the Apple logo for their developer certification program. It means that DJI has paid Apple a bunch of money and is certifying that they are meeting certain requirements of the Apple program to help ensure good compatibility with Apple devices. Unfortunately, there is no similar developer certification program for Android. If there were, I imagine DJI would do that certification process as well.
