Disappointed
Made me download update multiple times in which each took a full hour to complete. The drone itself kept turning off. I do not recommend this app.
Update issues
I connect my Parrot Mambo just fine but when I try to fly it says I need to update. I try to update and there’s always an error. The parrot support page also wasn’t helpful at all.
Just no
I do believe that this app tried to hack my google acc bc it said that it tried to get sensitive information so it was blocked. I wouldn’t trust it just because of that. If I’m mistaken then sorry but I believe it tired to hack me.
Not supported anymore?
Won’t connect to my Xr but still works fine with my old 7. So the newer iOS doesn’t support the Bluetooth it seems, but the newbies seems to have a lot of Bluetooth issues.
Trouble with updating
I have been trying to get my parrot mambo to update for quite some time now and at around 5% it says lost connection or it simply says error downloading firmware.
Connection issues for IPhone 11
I have the Parrot Mambo and flypad. I used to fly regularly with my Samsung Galaxy S6 edge + with no issue. Drone would connect to the phone through this app and the flypad would connect after that. The drone would fly smooth and the controls were quick and responsive. The app was not perfect, there were glitches here and there but nothing that would affect the flying experience. After getting an iPhone 11 and updating the drone and app I was disappointed to find that the connection with the drone was spotty. The controls were choppy and not as responsive as before. I am not sure if it is the difference between iPhone and Samsung bluetooth connections or the updated app. I hope they can fix this, I really enjoy the easy of flying parrot mini drones.
Why remove gyro controls?
This app used to let my fly the drone with my phone’s gyro, which was super fun and intuitive. Without those controls, the drone is a lot harder to fly. Why remove a feature that worked so well?
