IOS or Android

[DaveH70]

Has anyone found Apple to be more compatible than Android? Looking at getting a dedicated pad for the controller. Want to determine if Apple is better suited for this than Android. Anyone have any experience with this or just get whatever and be done with it? Thanks!

The great Debate Hmmm...I will say IOS is friendlier for dji Drones I don't think its really any Better. I would say Apple is better for novice Drone users. I.M.O.

Get whichever you are more comfortable with.
The app works equally well with either.

As long as you don’t ever want to use Litchi apps an iOS device is fine. If you ever want to do more than use DJI fly, buy an Android OS device.

I would recommend IOS. Much more user friendly. I have the Tripltek tablet and it’s a PITA TO Upgrade. Only thing going for it is the bright screen.
Also I have both Litchi and Maven on my iPads.

Thanks I was leaning toward IOS but not totally convinced yet. Lol

I’m iOS user my self, but third party app (if interested in those) can support newer drones (from mini 3 ) only on android.

Yes, I can use litchi for my Mavic 1 but my mini 4 pro isn’t supported by either version of litchi. DJI haven’t released their SDK for iOS for the Mini 4 Pro so litchi can’t program for it. The drone flies well enough using DJI Fly and modern iOS devices have bright screens.

I tried the Dragon 10 tab and the screen is really tough to see in sunlight. Usually us my Galaxy s21 for the older drone.

 

[DaveH70]

That's my problem too. Can't see squat in bright sunlight. Lol

Using an iPad Mini 6, I have never had any problems.
