Hi, I bought a first-generation Mavic Pro used a couple of years ago. I then got distracted with another project and never flew it yet. My wife just bought me the mini 4 K, and after having so much fun with it I remembered the Mavic Pro. I tried to add it to the DJI app, but the first gen is no longer compatible. The Mavic flies great, but without any camera or flight info. Does anyone know where I can find the earlier app?

Thank you,
Craig

Yes, DJI GO 4 is still available here.

You will need the GO4 app from here. You can also use Litchi in addition.

DJI Fly. I use it with my mini 4K. When I tried adding the Mavic Pro, it said it was no longer supported for the first generation.
Per above, you must use DJI GO 4.
 
I use that one with my mini 4K. When I try to add the Mavic Pro, it says it is no longer supported for the first generation. There was an update a few months ago. I'm looking for an earlier version or an aftermarket app that works.
DJI Fly is the correct app for your Mini 4K.
DJI Go 4 is the correct app for your original Mavic Pro and there's no need for an earlier version.

Litchi is, in my opinion, a solid app that I have been using for years with my MP.

It's not free, but it's not expensive either.

You’ve been given the answer already. I just wanted to reiterate. They are 2 seperate apps. DJI Go is the app used for older drones like the original mavic and phantoms. DJI moved newer drones like your mini 4K to the DJI fly app. 2 drone series and 2 different apps

DJI Go 4 DEFINITELY works with Mavic Pro…I use it without problem with mine !
Also using Maven..

(Don’t forget though Remote ID..which is so far not mandatory here in Australia)

Ditto. Dirt cheap at $27, and I can't imagine how it's possible to get so much technology for so little money. I bought it to fly pre-programmed missions for a consulting job, but I also prefer it over DJI GO4 for recreational flying.

The joysticks, map, and video feed are pretty much the same as DJI GO so you can just pick it up and fly your drone. The rest, however is a better approach to drone operation, and doesn't give the impression of having been "dumbed down" for the masses.
 
DJI Go 4 is the app to use. I use it (the latest version) with my Mavic Pro ("1st edition").
