Title: DJI drops iOS support for developers and recommends switching to Android
Post by: Redaktion on December 05, 2023, 21:52:45
DJI has now ended support for iOS development. With no alternative offered, DJi recommends iOS developers switch to Android, with Windows developers out of luck too.

Android is a bad place for developers, everything gets pirated in 3 seconds. This decision is effectively killing the quality of 3rd party projects in the long run.

What does that even mean? They were offering Android support before so this so called "Piracy" was already happening, not to mention others copying your software without permission has no effect on how said software actually performs. The matter of fact is most people do just download from official sources and never even bother sideloading, especially with stuff like this. You're just making a nothing burger statement for the purpose of hating.

It has an effect on how much money developer gets and in the end on how good the app is. Good apps are usually made for iOS first (the most lucrative market) and then ported to Android.
