What About Apple (iOS)?
Apple users can download the most recent versions of each DJI app directly from the Apple App Store instead of through the DJI download center.
DJI apps receive regular updates to fix bugs and make minor performance enhancements. To ensure that your app performs at its best, be sure to update it frequently through the app store.
How to Update Your Drone’s Firmware
Let’s look at how to obtain the most recent firmware for your drone, which DJI advises you have.
- First, ensure that your drone battery level is at least 40% and the controller 20%.
- Power on the aircraft and then on the remote controller.
- Open the DJI Fly app on your device.
- Ensure that the aircraft and the controller are successfully linked.
- A notification informing you that a new firmware version is available will show up if your phone is online. Click “update.”
- Once you are on the firmware update page, tap on ‘update’ once again.
- Wait until the app updates the drone firmware.
- Do not turn off the app. It is normal if it is taking some time to update the firmware. The aircraft might turn on and off by itself while this is happening.
- The drone will shut itself off once it has finished updating.
