Just take me to the DJI Fly download page
Our readers have been sharing delivery news of their Mavic Mini drones (ours arrives tomorrow) and just in time DJI has also released the full version of the DJI Fly app here.
Unlike other DJI products that share the DJI GO or DJI GO4 App for aircraft management,the Mavic Mini has it’s own dedicated app.
The list of supported devices is also a little different than you’re accustomed to as well.
Gone are the tablets (for now) so those of you intending to fly the Mavic Mini will be out of like, at least at the start. Like the Osmo Pocket, however, we were able to contol it using an iPad and an iPad mini even though they weren’t supported at the time.
We’ll be putting the Mavic Mini through it’s paces this weekend, and will provide a full report.
If you’re uncertain whether to buy the Mavic Mini drone, playing around with the DJI Fly app might help you get a feel for the features.
For now, here’s the list of supported devices:
iOS V10.0 or above:
iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11, iPhone XS Max, iPhone XS, iPhone XR, iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone 8, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6.
Android 6.0 or above:
Samsung Galaxy S10+, Samsung Galaxy S10, Samsung Galaxy S9+, Samsung Galaxy S9 , Samsung Galaxy S8+, Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, Samsung Galaxy S7, Samsung Galaxy S6, Samsung Galaxy Note9, Samsung Galaxy Note8, HUAWEI P30 Pro, HUAWEI P30, HUAWEI P20, HUAWEI P10, HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro, HUAWEI Mate 10, HUAWEI nova 5, HUAWEI nova 4, HUAWEI nova 3e, HUAWEI nova 2, Honor 8X, Honor V10, Honor 9, Honor 20 Pro, Honor Magic 2, Mi 8, Mi MIX 2S, Mi MIX 2, Redmi Note 5, OPPO Find X, OPPO R15, vivo NEX, vivo X27, vivo X21, vivo X20A, OnePlus 7, OnePlus 6T, OnePlus 5, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 2, Pixel, LG V20, LG G6.
The smaller brain of the Mavic Mini means certain flight modes, and more sophisticated camera controls aren’t available.
But stay tuned to future firmware updates to see what features eventually become available.
We can already tell you that when using the Mavic Mini quickshots (like Circle) the software does “track” you if you start moving around…..so it’s very possible that an active track mode could theoretically be possible.
But because the Mavic Mini lacks forward vision sensors, if ActiveTrack becomes available you’ll definitely want to have your propeller guards on!
