I have two Samsung (Android) devices on the DJI list and they both show 'Disconnected' now. Been a fight and nothing helps. Samsung is always applying some update and then something happens with GO. When they do connect, they'll often crash to a black screen and then I need to restart them.
What I plan to do is to move my iPad Air 2 over to the second controller for the camera guy, and get myself a new iPad Pro 9.7" as it appears to crash the least out of all tablets so far. GO 4 shows it to be almost 1 GB in size (~850KB) once installed on the Air 2 so it must be a glutton for the processor and a lot out there now won't keep up it seems, especially the Androids as they seem to run a lot of background apps that get in the way. I've gotten pop-ups from some sundry free app running in the background asking if I want a free Starbucks coffee while flying in GO. Mine records other data like where I am (Maps) and how far I've walked (Samsung 'Health' and Google 'Fit' both.) actively running behind the scenes. I haven't noticed that interference with the iPad yet.
I also need the larger screen for Autopilot as it has a lot of flight data on the screen and easier to use to plan a route. I'll note that Autopilot 4 is crashing with the addition of the GO 4 screen within it too! (It's shown as a beta option.) so I went back to the older Autopilot screen. I think as GO grows with each version, Apple may be the safest investment over the Android OS. I'm tired of dealing with in-air app crashes with the Android and the need to keep buying cheap ones which end up costing more in the long run.
