Air Control can support streaming from any Android device.
In this case, Air Control will be installed onto the Remote Controller to stream in the background while the pilot flies in their default flight app.
Airspace, weather, LAANC, checklists, and manual flight logging will continue to function. Pilots will not hook their drones up directly to Air Control.
Find your mobile app version below:

Streaming on iOS
Note: Streaming on iOS requires Air Control to connect directly to the drone to enable a broadcast. The process looks identical to SDK4 in-app process (screen share streaming coming soon). Support is currently limited to DJI Go, Go4, and Pilot drones. For reference, the iOS process is laid out in the basic Live Streaming article.
