pixel 5

[Smizerley]

Hi: I bought a Google Pixel 5 about 2 weeks ago. This morning I picked up a Mini 2. Already I'm seeing that the phone might not be compatible? Is that right? Any ideas what I can do now? I kept the Galaxy 8 but the battery life sucks on it.

Nope. I'm a complete newby.

Nope. I'm a complete newby.

Start with the full 60 page online only DJI manual for your drone. Get it here:

https://dl.djicdn.com/downloads/DJI_Mini_2/DJI_Mini_2_User_Manual+EN.pdf

Then explore the DJI site for you drone and explore the page.

I also changed recently to Pixel 5 with Mini 2. Did 4 flights with no issues. What's wrong on your side?

Well why don't you just check to see if it flies and works ok? It is not rocket science, sheesh.

This site is usually kept up to date. But guess the Pixel 5 is too new. Best Tablets and Phones for DJI GO & DJI Fly (Updated Daily) | Phantom Help

@Smizerley .... as stated above just try it.

I also have a Pixel 5 and it works perfectly; all you need to do is update the DJI app

I'm having the same issue. When I downloaded the DJI app, all went well til my screen froze when it opened...it has the academy on the upper right side with a pull down of tips...and it won't let me chose one or anything else
