Does not connect to my iPhone 13max plus

Good thing I kept my android which connects every time.

Horrible

Skydio does not work with iPhone 15 Pro. And the user experience is terrible. Not only does it refuse to establish communications between the drone and the iPhone, every time you attempt to get it to work you have to re-enter Wi-Fi information. This is ridiculous. I’d rather have my data stolen by China than use this American-made monstrosity.

Create clip not working in app

Drone is great and it had been working fine, but now I cannot create a clip from the footage I just captured. I can set the start point, and set the endpoint, but cannot click next to create the video. The problem is that the blue NEXT button stays illuminated for about half of a second and then it’s grayed out, so I cannot click it.

Expensive Paperweights: DO NOT BUY!

We bought 2 Skydio2+ on recommendation from DroneDeploy. They have been nothing but problematic for the 8 months we have had them. The constant disconnection issues, inability to pair the cheap, flimsy, finicky and gimmicky controller to the drone and constant inability to use in both DroneDeploy and the native app. You have to try for 5-10 minutes each time before a flight to pair the phone and or controller to the drone and then it ends up disconnecting mid flight. Save your hard earned money and buy a drone that actually works and has the customer support that actually helps the customer. The controller is such a joke too, cheaply made but they charge $180 for it. I fixed your slogan too: ‘Skydio 2+ Fly like never before…. If it works’ Don’t buy these drones. Nothing but expensive paperweights.

Dont be a fool

The drone is total rubbish a long with the beacon! Constantly disconnecting on me! Uncontrollable behavior.

Save your money

For anyone planning on buying this drone be very cautious. Skydio promotes this drone has being exceptional and tracking and avoiding objects. I can tell you from experience and two skydio crashes thats this drone is garbage. The only way this drone works properly is in a super wide open field and with very bright lighting. Camera quality is not very good and the drone loses connection every second. While regaining connection you have absolutely no control of the drone, do there is no way of you stopping the drone from hitting a branch a powerline. DJI had been out for way longer and believe their drones are way better and actually cheaper. The skydio is $1000 just the drone. With all the accessories you are easily looking at $1600 to $1700 for the basic package. There are lots of drones out there that are less expensive and do a better job than the skydio.

Local Files

The way the opposite of, if I would like to preview a video, the Skydio app saves it locally. Then, if I’d like to access that video when I’m not connected to the drone, from Photos for example, I cannot. The video files are saved in a private directories so that I can preview them. If I try to save them locally on my phone, it takes quite a bit of time to save each clip. Why not allow users to either access the local videos from the photos app directly, or copy them from the Skydio app directories to photos quickly. Exporting new clips, takes too long.

Skydio 2 unable to update.

After updating my app, I connected it to the drone, checked for an update, but got the “software up to date” message. The drone can’t fly until I update it, but the drone won’t update after updating my app...

App works great

Very intuitive flying. App is easy to use and connect to drone wifi well. When i use the beacon, with beacon connected to drone wifi, the phone app wants to connect to beacon wifi as it should. It’s easy to hand launch and catch the drone with the app. Flying control is acceptable, certainly not as good as controller, but sufficient to set up shots and tracking. Nice job Skydio.

Amazing autonomy, (how to fix) update issues

The Skydio 2 is amazing, super easy to fly and a lot of fun (just made sure you have a fast enough SD card - their website tells you what it needs). We had a lot of frustration before the first flight trying and failing to update over WiFi, but then found how to force cellular updates and it worked perfectly. Just go to Info (bottom of the screen) -> Settings -> Cellular Updates -> Always.
