I have not used the OTG cable with my iphone  but I used to have a lot of app crashes.. Now, I make sure to close all other apps that may be running before launching DJIGo .. have not had a crash since I have started doing that.

What iOS are you running ? I've found mine is rock solid when using the app and my 2 year old iPhone 6s+

In general when it comes to DJI go app I follow the following pre-flight check list for my phone.
Reboot the device, close most apps that require background modes (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter).
Turn off bluetooth from setting app (not the control centre if you are using iOS 11).

If you get frequent app crashes (not limited to DJI) I would suggest a full backup and restore via iTunes. This often will give your device a fresh install so to speak.
Its most likely not related to the App but some type of configuration on your iPhone thats causing the crash.

I tested it last night without any issues.  I'm using IOS 11.1 on iPhone 6s.  I've not had a crash or issues with any app including GO4.

Might want to restart your phone .. this will refresh any background apps running and clear your cache.

Hope this works.

I just got back from a 1 1/2 hour drive to Lake Fontana to capture sunset. DJIGo crashed many many times. It was maddening. No error messages. I’m running iOS 11.03 on an iPad Mini 3, 64GB and flying a Phantom 4 Pro. I’ll try uninstalling and reinstalling. Hope I’m as lucky as you.

Can confirm having issues as well.

Yesterday I was flying multiple times without a single crash or problem. I was running the app on my iPhone 6 on iOS 10.x something. After gotten home I saw I had an update to iOS 11.0.3 and did the update.

Today I was out flying and during all three flights I had the app lose connection and hang/crash on me. Sometimes I lose visibility sometimes the app just goes gray and no info. One time it lost visual and asked if it should engage RTH.

I manage to recover by closing down the app and restarting it, with the result that the flight tracking is lost - as well as giving me stress about not being able to see where my drone is going properly.

Clearly there's some weirdness related to the 11.0.3 update in my case. I have now uninstalled the app and reinstall it and will give it some more flights later today hopefully.

I have 120+ flights with various drones and can only recall losing video feed like this once before. So getting three in a row after an update feels sketchy.

Update: After uninstalling and reinstalling the app, I flew two batteries worth without a single problem, hopefully that solved the issue.

And to add, I got these problems flying my Mavic rather than the Spark. However both the Mavic and Spark flies ok after the reinstall (so far).

I have two completely different setups that I use commercially. The first one is the M600, IPAD Pro 13", FLIR XT camera. The second one is the Mavic Pro, IPAD Mini both with different cables. SO there are two completely different system and equipment flying at two different locations about 200 miles apart. Both the GO App and GO 4 have constant crashes. The bird never loses connection with the radio after the app crashes and while in the air, the app quickly reconnects when launched again. I have tried installing the apps again, clearing video caches, turning wifi and Bluetooth off. Even uninstalling other apps to test whether they could be interfering. Every piece of software I am using is the current version although it looks like Apple just released version 11.2. I found this info on a site discussing IOS crash issues. Hopefully, the 11.2 update will stop the DJI app crashes.
