As per the Title,
Litchi now has a Beta delivering actual Tracking and Follow Me!
Needs some refining, but Bloody Hell!
DJI has offered the tools to finally make it happen via 3rd Party! - Marveous!

Not yet too excited.  Sketchy "Beta" performance on Android and nothing on iOS.  While some of the tracking seems to work, some of the other functions that Litchi exists for, don't.  I agree, though... nice to see that the other great and efficient flight software company is giving a go.

Great!. Thanks for the video.  Do you know if Litchi allows the Mini to Shoot in RAW?

It did a great job, but I'm too scared to used it for my drone since I do not want to loose it if something happen.

It is not too bad for some nice intersting footage. Not perfect but workable

It's still in beta, so i'm sure will get smoothed out.

Does anyone know if the iOS version will eventually also have follow-me?

No need for me personally for such a buggy Follow Function. Maybe in the future, but pretty nice that they actually work on it.
RAW would still be my Nr. 1 wish-feature. Would be a perfect addition to my new DSLM.

There was no follow me function on iOS version and it is unlikely to be (I think this is due to OS limitations). For android, this function has been around for a long time, for iOS they do not add it.

But for iOS, panoramas can be stitchhed on a smartphone, but not for android.

Hi. Thank you for reaching out to DJI Forum. With regards to using a third party application. Since the Litchi application is not tested by the DJI, we cannot guarantee the stability and performance of the said application during flight. Please use the recommended application which is the DJI Fly to ensure stability and compatibility during flight. Thank you.

That's a shame. I think I'll just wait and see what solution Dronelink comes up with as I already have that app.
