Drone Assist Reviews

It’s okay

ILMEDIC on

United States

Seems to be a good app. The only issue I have is it appears to be zoomed in a small bit and cuts off the map and some of the buttons. Looks like it wants to be in landscape but I can’t find a setting to correct that so I guess some is just cut off. This would be a 4 star app if that was corrected and 5 stars if you did not need an account just to look at the app. Also need to correct some terms like “device ID” or “operator ID” and “pilot ID”. Allow us to mark recreational or part 107, maybe even a tic box per flight if you do both 107 and rec flights. The issue I have found is when you have bigger text or zoomed view the app can’t adjust so it just cuts off icons or keeps them off screen.

Can’t start a new mission. App says you must be a pilot. Please add one. I can’t find anywhere in the App where I can do that. Please help.

Can’t use without an account. No thanks.

Can’t even get into the app without creating an account. Not doing that.

Perfect

Wholegrain45 on

A genuinely useful app that is incredibly helpful when planning to fly and flying drones especially given the ability to request permission to fly in compatible/some restricted zones in app and how it shows power lines and other possible hazards, both of which are extremely helpful. The ability to submit flight plans to the operator panel and have said flight plans show on the public map to alert other drone users is also very useful. However, from the initial settings of the app it may appear that some areas are no-fly zones for drones when you are permitted to fly your drone there unless temporary restrictions have been put in place/it may not be advisable to fly in that zone. But such is clarified in the description of that restricted zone so it is not a major issue. Other than that, I have no issues - especially as the service is provided free of charge.

Scammy…

Official app itself doesn’t ask for many permissions… till you try to use any functionality and then it wants to send all data to third party… if this was legit, it would be the app itself asking for these permissions. Deleting account

Best drone app

Really helps Drone Flyers

Awahwah on

United Kingdom

This is very well put together app and certainly helps me plan my flights. Only improvement is like to see is the new restrictions that are in force for the NSA regulations that are now in place.

clunky at best

the drone lass on

United Kingdom

times out. doesn't support professionals who are working daily and as some flights are submitted to NATS and get approved but some are direct and some not actually go to the airport as airports not on the app it's perhaps a waste of time

Need to set screen zoom function

United Kingdom

This update seems to need a change of the iPhone screen zoom function or you won’t see all the functionality
