According to information shared by Reuters, the initiative was announced amid increasing pressure for information transparency in the drone industry.

The app will give all smartphone owners the ability to track drones flying over near their location via Wi-Fi, displaying information such as identification number, location, altitude, speed, and direction.

The Chinese company hopes its new tool will help the lives of many users with security and peace of mind, after all, no one likes to be spied on.

Amid the constant fear of misuse of this type of device – whether for war or espionage or even causing flights to be delayed/canceled at airports and requiring the installation of costly anti-drone technologies – the novelty It will certainly be well received.

Still, according to DJI, the app should work up to 1 kilometer away for Aware Wi-Fi-enabled smartphones.
