Owned by Patrick Dowd
Jun 20, 2022

The Kespry app’s left side menu of the home screen was redesigned in version 1.11. Many of the utility features in the previous version have been consolidated into a single “Tools” option. This new menu opens a utility view organized by application and drone-specific features. 

To access the side menu just tap on the “Hamburger” icon (three horizontal lines) at the top left of the screen. This will open the menu, from there you will be able to access Mission Data, Import data in addition to the new “Tool’s option. The Tools section can be opened by tapping  “Tools” and it will be divided into either two or three other sections depending on the service(s) you use. All users will see the Drone and App tabs. Customers that fly the DJI Phantom 4 RTK drone will also see an RTK tab at the top of the Tools home screen.
