Hello there Bluetiger. Thank you for reaching out and I am sorry for the trouble this has caused. As posted above I am sorry to say that you need the DJI Mimo ( https://www.dji.com/downloads/djiapp/dji-mimo ) application to activate your new DJI Action 2 and for you to be able to use the intelligent modes features of your DJI Action 2. In addition the DJI Mimo offers live HD video feeds and unique, easy-to-use intelligent modes, empowering you to shoot, edit, and share your world with endless creativity. Thank you.
That's all well and good but I suffer with eletrosensitivity, which is why I don't have a smart phone. That's why I wanted a small action camera that could shoot great footage and was easy to carry.
The fact is, you supply a USB cable because you know that most people will be downloading and editing their footage on a laptop or desktop. That being the case I don't know why you can't supply an app to run on those devices at least to get the camera set up. Gopro do it, so I'm not sure why you seem to have a problem.
I'm also disappointed to find that both the bluetooth and wifi on this camera can not be turned off. Not only is this not good for people like myself but also drains the battery unnecessarily. I'd rather have the option to shoot more footage than have the battery drained by things I won't use and don't want.
Also has DJI considered the safety implications of the fact that this product cannot be put into airplane mode? What if it were found out that some of the plane crashes over the years were caused by DJI devices interfering with the plane's electronics? What would that do for DJI's reputation?
In short, this appears to be a great product but it seems to me that privacy and safety are a low priority for DJI. Unless DJI address these issues I can't see myself buying anymore of their products.
As a new customer, I had high hopes for this camera but had I known what I know now I wouldn't have bought this product. I'm very disappointed with DJI.
