VIVITAR AEROVIEW is a APP for the VIVITAR Drone's control via WiFi protocol
1.Remote control the VIVITAR Drone's by iPhone.
2.Display the real-time video which taken by the camera on the drone,video data transmitted via 2.4G WiFi protocol.
3.Take the photo and video record on iPhone.
So at the beginning I got everything set up, and all was well. However, later I couldn’t connect with the controller. It was okay though since you can fly with the app. More time passes. Then it refused to takeoff. Another day I tried again and it failed again. Then, the next day I tried one last time, and it failed.
Don’t buy although for some people it may be good. I’d recommend the DJI Mini SE or a Tello.

Useless
Camera does not sync to the phone at all and the app is not entirely in English. I sold Vivitar products 20 years ago and they were absolute garbage but I figured they might have fixed their quality issues over the last 20 years. Guess not.

No camera, no video upload
The drone is easy to fly, but the camera doesn’t communicate with the drone. The customer service department might as well not exist. I cannot figure how to get video or pictures to show on my phone. When I press the file button on the app I have the same problem other who have reviewed this drone have. Tap the video file and the app locks and tries to tell me something in Chinese. I don’t speak Chinese. Please correct this problem and let the customers who bought this thing know!
Nplatinum,
Works fine for me!
I got the drone tonight. I’m on an iPhone X with iOS 12.1 and the app stays open each time I use it. I will say though that this drone is cheaply made. I went to land it and the legs came right off. If I decide to keep it I’m supergluing them on. Other than that, no issues!

Can’t Access Photos or Videos
When I click on the photo/video folder, I get nothing and it freezes. So I can’t see any photos or videos at all. I’ve updated the App and iOS. Anybody else having this problem? Other than that, drone and app work fine in flight.

Works good
Have to go to your WiFi setting on the phone first and Connect to the the WiFi then it works like it should video and all
Bmgheath,
Works fine
App works fine. Everything comes up. I used it on my iPhone SE. It crashed a few times when I switched to another app and came back. But came right back up.

App failure
The drone works great. Everytime I go into the app and hit start it’ll close and takes me back to my home screen. Other than not being able to use the camera the drone is great.

Doesn’t work well at all
No instructions on how app should work. Unable to flip the camera view to get a picture that is not upside down and unable to get the picture or video function working. Tried on several devices, unable to save to the phone or iPad. Sounds good on the box 360 areal view as long as you don’t need this APP to capture it.

Pretty good
This works for me. For those of you who can’t connect with the drone, you have to connect it to a different WiFi network.
