## Review summary

Users find PIX4Dcapture Pro very useful and easy to use for DJI drones. However, common issues include poor compatibility with newer drone models, frequent mission start failures across devices, inability to import kml/kmz flight plan files, and missing photos during flights due to connectivity needs. Many users recommend purchasing the pro version for better features, while the free version is seen as limited.

### Pros

- Works perfectly with DJI drones for drone flight missions.
- The app has an easy and visually pleasant workflow.
- It's a very useful app for drone flight planning and capture.

### Cons

- Lack of support for newer DJI drones such as DJI Air 2S and Mini 3 Pro.
- Frequent mission start failures across multiple devices (Android and iOS).
- Missing features like importing kml/kmz files for flight plans.
- Free version is considered pointless; pro version is required for full usability.
- Requirement for constant connection to a device makes reliability and missed photos a major issue.
