DJI GO 4 on iPad vs. iphone

RichP · Dec 20, 2018

I have an inspire 2 and have a new issue. when I connect with the go 4 app using my iPad Pro I do not have the icon option to bring up the fpv camera view. The only way to bring up the fpv is to assign a C1 or 2 button to enlarge the fpv. When I connect using my iPhone 7 the fpv icon is there on the lower right as it used to be on the ipad. Both go 4 and iOS revs are the same on both devices.

Any ideas as to what may have happened to the icon on the iPad?

I use both the iPad mini 4 and 2-9.7” iPad 5th generation (all 128gb’s) and never have that problem. Have you tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the app?

I agree with Phil.

As I don't think it has anything to do with either your drone of your iPad it must be the app. I fact you should be able to launch the app without a drone or controller and have the fpv window come up (although without picture of course)

Exactly why I said that. It’s gotta be the app

Or possibly you haven’t updated your software on your iPad? There’s a new iOS update available

i should have thought about reinstalling the app. I was so focused on the settings thinking I must have changed something that I forgot that it just might be the app.
Thanks, I’ll do that today.

Sorry for updating this old thread, but I recently ran into this issue as well. The DJI app originally did not work on my brand new iPad Pro 12.9. When I got the iPad I just downloaded the latest backup from my iPhone and I think this caused the issue: An app that wasn't completely compatible with the iPad. Deleting and reinstalling the app for my iPad fixed it: The fpv view can be zoomed in and out without any problems now

So thank you guys a lot for this discussion and the hint!
