Android Apps Release Notes - 2026.1

Version Numbering Update

Starting with this release, DroneSense will transition from date-based version numbers (for example, 2025.12.10) to a year-based sequential format (for example, 2026.1, 2026.2, 2026.3). This change makes it easier to identify the latest release moving forward.

Bug Fixes

• The Parrot ANAFI UKR will now display the storage amount when an SD card is inserted.
  • Previously, internal storage was not shown.
  • Firmware version 8.3 enables internal storage when an SD card is not plugged in.
  • User Tip: An SD card is still required for Auto Tracking.

• The DJI Matrice 4 series will now save the LEDs During Shooting setting.
  • Disabled = Front LEDs turn off when taking a picture or recording a video. The rear LEDs remain active, and the auxiliary light and top beacon stay on if enabled.
  • Enabled = Front and Rear LEDs will stay on and the bottom auxiliary light and top beacon will remain active based on user settings.
    
    Switch to the Camera view and tap on Settings (1) and LEDs During Shooting (2).
  • User Tip: LEDs During Shooting is set to Disabled by default and we recommend changing it to Enabled for visibility.

• Resolved a crash when selecting Streaming & Tracking - Open CoPilot App in the Pilot app mission selector.
