I just had this experience with the P4P PLUS!  "DJI go app not responding".  No way can the remote controller be incompatible: it's the one with the built-in screen.  I found this experience very scary.  Having to restart the remote controller while the drone is airborne is not my idea of safe use.

I've noticed my GO4 app shutting down with the phantom 4, but starting it back up does not reconnect at all, the only way it will reconnect is to restart the remote controller, and lots of times I don't want the Phantom 4 to return home, just stay where it is while I get the app reconnected.

I used to get the occasional disconnect with the message that the GO app had shut down unexpectedy, but I would restart the app and it would reconnect immediately.  Now the app screen just vanishes, no messages, no nothing. Starting the app back up just sits there like it does when you don't have the Phantom powered up.

I have the app on a Samsung S2 SM-T810, when I bought my Phantom in the middle of 2016 it was one of the recommended tablets.  I've experienced this type of crash since June 2017, it was rare and seemed to clear up when I turned off wifi, but my last couple of flights it's happening every time. I've turned off the wifi, disabled video cache etc. and any other recommendations I could find.

I'll be going back to my old flamewheel DJI quads with GoPro's and FPV ground station soon at this rate, at least it was dependable..

Same for me, the app crashes at least one time every flight. It has been going fine for a couple of months but now the problems start again.

For me it's enough now, I won't by a DJI drone anymore. I'm tired of checking this forum every time there is a problem. First there was the map problem where the red arrow wasn't centered during flight and now this again.

I will be looking at the competition like the Autel Evo or the poweregg drone.

Oh the joy of updating...
