Wasn't using an Android phone, using a Galaxy Tab 4 tablet. 8GB of memory, nearly half taken up with system files, etc. - even after "deodexing" what I reasonably could from the OS. Having only 4GB (or thereabouts) remaining, wasn't much. So, trying to have the videos/pics cached on the device didn't go too far, and didn't want the cache to self-clean, etc. Part of this due to many discussions about "drone lost", and the usefulness of having not only the log, but the video at times in finding the drone.
Had an old iPad 3 which was getting long in the tooth, and couldn't update to iOS 10, and wouldn't run DJI Go 4, so I've "jumped the shark". I wanted an updated iPad, etc. Thought about an iPad mini 4, but it's much slower in response to the iPad Pro. Best Buy had an iPad Pro 9.7 with 128GB of memory for the same price as a 64GB model - so got it. Now no memory worries. It seems that DJI is more attuned to releasing DJI Go sooner/more frequently on iOS than on Android (so far).
Some of you will be chiding me to "wait" for the new iPad release - probably early April. I've thought about it for several months, reviewed release schedules, etc., watched the rumor mills, and made my decision. I believe that the new iPad Pro 9.7 will be a "lesser" model than it is currently (lower memory/processor?), and will effectively be replaced by the Pro 10.5" instead (at current 9.7 prices). Doubt that they will change the memory storage much, so the current sale price seemed to be the better deal. And the iPad minis have a fall release schedule, so a new one probably won't appear until later this year - in time for the holidays.
So - my problem is solved for the time being. |
