Then you didn't update the fly app as well.

I'm talking about the Fly app, that's been updated to version 1.6.4.

You are correct good sir. I did check earlier and it showed it was up to date however I just went back in now upon your recommendation and viola, there it was. Updating now and will report back. This will be great if it's as advertised.

Everytime I get the message to update the app it says it's downloading in background yet nothing happens. Not sure why it's doing this. You are correct that I am stuck on 1.5.1

I'm wondering If I blow the app off my phone and tried to reload it I may have better luck.

If you're using android then its probably not updating anymore and need to reinstall it directly from DJI - DJI Fly - Download Center - DJI

Yep, Android Playstore stopped with FLY App updates about the version you're currently on if I recall.
Since then you need to download direct for DJI.

You mentioned Downloading in the Background... that sounds like a Android.

On a few of my Androids, I noticed it said that... and nothing more on the screen.
If you pull down Androids status window... you can see if it's still downloading or complete. Then select the download and respond to Install.

You also have to update the FLY app.

Anyone having issues with AEB and the telephoto camera? For some reason it does not bracket for me. It just shoots 5 shots with the same exact exposure settings.

I haven't tried shooting 5, but haven't seen any issue shooting brackets of 3:

What camera settings have you been using?

Is airsense working?

my ears work better where I live.. I hear them before airsense gives me a warning besides I have NEVER seen them fly bellow 500 feet but I do see people speeding down the highway on a daily basis! LOL... way over the speed limit is the average around here! LOL

Hmmm my settings seem fine. Not sure what would cause it to shoot 5 of the same exposures. I have shutter and ISO set to manual. Also shooting RAW. Tried a 3 shot bracket and had the same problem.

Update: Alright now its working.. I had to put shutter speed in Auto mode. That seems like it should be bug to me. That's not how AEB works normally.

So, I feel like a Noob but that was my first mistake. I kinda forgot the whole DJI controlling the updates thing. I mistakenly, I thought that since the App store showed no update.......

Anyway, this presented a whole new set of issues. As DJI falls under the 'unknown app' arena Android will not let you simply download the update in the usual way.

When I was in the app I'd get the typical update message. Every time I clicked to update I'd get the usual downloading in background message. However, it wasn't. As you already posted you have to download the APK directly from DJI. However, even with that process being completed it still won't unpack due to the 'unknown app status'

Here's the weird part where I can hopefully help someone else out. Android allows for an exclusion list from all your apps so you can essentially force an update. By choosing DJI Fly it did nothing and wouldn't let me install the update.

Odd, huh?

It wasn't until I chose the actual download folder and added that to the exclusion list that it finally updated. **** glad I have extensive background on all this nonsense.

Thanks for all the help guys. Everyone is such a great resource here.

Makes me wonder how someone with just basic knowledge of that whole android stuff should be able to install Fly app updates...

Southfork1 · Jun 6, 2022

Nice. Now hopefully they'll work on improving some flight characteristics. Things are good now but easily within reach of being excellent.

I’m a newby so go easy on me. I just did the update for my M3 and now the camera zoom only goes to 7X, I think it used to go up to 28X. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Think you need to go into explorer mode to get 28x
