1 ★ Ad ridden app - worst I've seen. I can't say for sure if this app actually does anything constructive. An ad pops up every two taps on the screen (literally). Dev must be a greedy SOB. I'm not sure if there is an IAP to remove ads or paid ad-free version, but I won't bother looking as I'm uninstalling now. I'll try the FAA app instead as I'm sure it's more accurate anyway.
1 ★ Unfortunately I paid for the upgrade and the only thing that happened was the add disappeared no extra details at all that I can see. On top of that there is a helicopter base restricting flight at my house but this app doesnt show it when I have a free app that does. Very disappointed and not worth it. If there was an option to get my money back I would definitely have taken it and then it would be a good review due to company policy of satisfaction.
5 ★ This app is great for flying airplanes also wind speed is very accurate thank you for have such an amazing app
1 ★ I am still looking for an app that provides accurate no fly zones. Living near a uk national park where military jets fly low this app also provides no warnings about this high risk area and you would presume you are safe to fly. It's a massive issue IMHO
4 ★ Just got this app and from the little bit I've looked at seems like it's going to be a very useful tool for flying drones especially on where not to fly your drone, which is the main deal I was looking for. Only 4 stars because I was a little confused about the coloring keys on the map with the Apple application but then I also have an Android tablet so I got the app for that and it kind of looks so I'm still a little fuzzy on where exactly I can fly without hassle.
4 ★ Only limited experience but like that it brings several things together in one place. It has a sharp look but some features are an upgrade. The upgrade will probably become more valuable in the future. Right now I'm in the play stage with my drone. It is sure worth a look.
5 ★ I love the map because it make me feel comfortable flying in my area. It tells me the altitudes of flying.
4 ★ Excellent, gives you a lot of information without turning on your drone, save you alot of time relizing your in a no fly zone. Just was in Kauai, Hawaii, found out a lot of places I could not fly, saved a ton of time.
4 ★ Honestly a great app to use when I'm flying my mavic or if im feeling brave and want to fly tello outdoors. The only reason I didn't rate it higher was because I wanted to support the dev but 5 bucks every month is a bit steep for an app that just pulls from a database.
5 ★ Absolutely awesome, so useful for me amd my tinyhawk 2 freestyle. Pretty acurate, more accurate then i thought anyways. If there is a such option where you can search a location to show the status of that place, then please help me find it or if theres no such thing then please add it, it would be much more useful... Thank you-ANDR3W
5 ★ Great tool, pretty simple🔧👏👍 It's as useful as you make it.
1 ★ I paid for the upgraded version and only difference was the ads disappeared. This app lacks customization options and there are way better apps out there for FREE. Don't waste your money. Use the free version of the app if you want to use it.
1 ★ The main screen looks good. I upgraded the app to the Pro version and tryied to search a location on the search bar, the app shuts down every time as soon as I start typing. I tested it in my 2 Samsung phones, S9 and A10e both with the latests updates👎
5 ★ Enjoying every bit of it. Am going to get the full year access plan. But the one issue I found is that the color code in the maps do not match code description blues should be orange. Plz fix or that could lead sum people in big trouble. Trying to post an example...
5 ★ It helps you out very much!! Has kept me from putting my drone in the sky and losing 1400 dollars so I would say 5 stars. Wind is a really big issue when it comes to flying so thank you drone buddy I wish it were a free app.
