Just bought my first Mavic Pro last month. Updated it through my Samsung s8, no issues -- awesome. Tried out the flight simulator with my Samsung S8 and it would fly fine then when I would press the return to home button app would crash.......hmmmm (read about this and also have done extensive and I mean extensive reviews before buying this drone so knew this may happen). Was hoping this bug would of been fixed. Maybe it will be just with the flight simulator and not when I do my maiden flight. Have not tried my Ipad mini with simulator yet but looking into it. Due to the fact the box DOES state for ipad maybe I will stick with just using my ipad for flying. I have set my drone up so if this DOES happen in any of my flights the drone with just hover in place till reconnection occurs.

That just means an iOS version of the DJI GO app exists. It doesn't mean iOS is the only supported operating system. You can find a complete list of supported devices here.

thanks msinger. I have read numerous complaints of this drone app crashing with android devices and since I own an ipad I think it may just be the safer bet to use my ipad strickly for flying instead of my supported phone platform. I have seen the list of all devices thanks again.
Welcome to the forum from a fellow Canadian.
Have been flying for a year with android devices,first a S7 and now a S9plus with absolutely no issues.
So go ahead and have fun flying.
It's certainly an issue when people use Android devices with poor specs or devices that aren't known to work well with DJI GO.
I have now over 700 flights in the air without one app drop but most of them are iOS . I only have a few with a S7 .
I like my mini4 because of the larger screen . I would think that 80% of the dji drones have zero problems . People that have grief go on line looking for help . Go out in a open space and enjoy your toy . Hope it’s not as cold where you are as what I have .
Might pick an extra battery up online in the future, depending on how much flying time I do.
