There is no phone charging possibility anymore in the DJI Fly app 1.4.2 on IOS, please DJI, fix this.

It's quite pathetic that they don't check this type of thing before they push out an update. Ridiculous.

This „feature“ was not written in the release notes.

Their release notes are the most pathetic thing ever.  Is it too much to ask for for a detailed list of changes rather than having to figure out where a control moved to while you're flying?  I seriously doubt Garmin ever does that with their flight nav software.

Hi, Eusjan. Thanks for reaching out! Turning off charging for iOS devices has been removed in the latest version of the DJI Fly and designed to charge iOS devices automatically by default.

Do you encounter any problems with the current version of the DJI Fly? Please let us know so we can assist you better.

That's the very issue Gamora - it does NOT charge by default.
Here are others complaining about that:

Yes, it does not charge the phone on iOS. And having had the option to switch it off was also very much appreciated so as not to annoy an already full phone with charge currents.

We have already acknowledged the charging issue on iOS devices and will be fixed accordingly via an update as soon as possible. However, the option to turn off charging is currently removed on the latest version of the DJI Fly. Thank you for your great support and understanding.

Please bring back the option to turn charging on or off.  It is silly to take away an option that was already there!  Most of the time I do not want it to charge my phone!

Now with update of fly app 1.4.3 always charging no possibility to choose, with iPhone very stupid choice if my iphone is charge not stop he damage my iPhone battery (some require damage from user iphone)  and discharge my remote

We have improved the charging management function of the DJI Fly app (for iOS), and have set iOS phones to be charged by default once they are connected to the remote controller. These changes are based on the following considerations:
1. The mobile device power drains quickly when using functions such as real-time image transmission, intelligent flight mode, and intelligent shooting mode during flight.
2. The capacity of the new remote controller built-in battery is larger, so the battery life of the remote controller while charging an iOS device can be up to 3 to 4 hours.

Total disagere in i exit with not culla charged remote i dont want to fly, si not difficult put it back as previus user can choice mistery Why remove and again put in.

Hi,

While one one hand its great that the feature is back automatically and for some users this default mode is great, as it automatically charges their phone. However, some users would certainly like to choose.

Would there be any consideration for an on/off feature to be returned?

We appreciate your feedback about the recent changes. Unfortunately, there's no confirmation yet whether this option can be available again on future DJI Fly update but we'll forward this feedback to our developers. After the evaluation of the engineers, significant suggestions or requests will be implemented via the firmware update, app update, etc. For any updates, please stay tuned to the latest news on our DJI official website at www.dji.com or by checking the Release Notes specific for the DJI Fly.
