From the Litchi manual (as of April 25, 2018 ) ... RE-check your steps.
Connecting Litchi to your drone (from: https://flylitchi.com/help)
First, ensure you are using the latest DJI firmwares on both your aircraft and remote controller if you are using one. You can update the firmware using DJI Go, or for some of the older aircraft models download them from dji.com. Then, depending on your platform, follow the steps below.
Android
For remote controllers with a USB connection (Mavic Air/Pro, Phantom 3 Advanced/Professional, Phantom 4 Standard/Advanced/Pro, Inspire 1, Inspire 2), follow these steps:
-Make sure no DJI-based apps (including DJI Go, Litchi and other third party DJI drone/osmo apps) are running in the background. If there are any, force kill them
-If you have another app (such as DJI Go) set as the default for the remote controller USB connection, you will need to clear the defaults for that app in your mobile device (Settings - Apps - DJI Go (or other app name) - Clear Defaults). Please note that with Android 6+, some devices automatically set the app you start as default, so this step needs to be done everytime you want to switch app (for example from DJI Go to Litchi and vice versa)
-Start your aircraft and remote controller, and let them initialize for a few seconds
-Plug the remote controller into the mobile device
-You will see a popup asking which app to start, select Litchi in the popup to initiate connection
Info: Make sure to watch this video tutorial. (video available at: https://flylitchi.com/help)
EXCEPTION to the matter of having Go 4 along side Litchi: Known issue For Samsung Galaxy S5, Xiaomi Mi5 and LG G4 devices running Android 6+, connecting to Litchi with any aircraft model except the P3Standard/P34K/Spark will only work if Litchi is the only DJI-based app installed on the device (DJI Go, or other third party DJI apps must not be installed on the same device).
-For drones with a Wi-Fi connection (Phantom 3 Standard, Phantom 3 4K, Spark), follow these steps:
-Make sure no DJI-based apps (including DJI Go, Litchi and other third party DJI drone/osmo apps) are running in the background. If there are any, force kill them
-Force close all DJI-based apps (including DJI Go and other third party DJI drone/osmo apps). Please note step 1 is not enough. To force close an app, go to your mobile device Settings - Apps - DJI Go (or other app name) - Force close
-Start your aircraft and remote controller if you are using one, and let them initialize for a few seconds
-Connect to the Wi-Fi network of the aircraft
-Start Litchi
