How To Transfer Dji Video To Iphone

Download videos from Mavic Air 2/Mavic Mini/DJI Mini 2 to your Mac, PC, iPad, or other mobile device is not a daunting task, but it may take a long time and a lot of effort if you have a lot of videos to download, e.g., 10GB videos may take more than 20 minutes to download. This post will show you both the normal way and the fastest way to transfer your Mavic Air 2 or Mavic Mini footage to your computer or mobile device.

Tips:

Don't quit the DJI Fly app
It's better to do this right after you finish flying, or you will need to power on the drone, mount your mobile device and connect the remote controller all over again
Make sure your drone, remote controller, and mobile device have enough power.

If you only have a few files and want to edit with the DJI Fly app, this is probably the easiest way to do. But If you have a lot of 4K videos and high-quality photos, the downloading process will take quite a long time, and your phone or tablet may not have enough storage. e.g. it takes more than 3 minutes to download a 1GB video, the duration varies from device to device. Your drone will also heat up during the process because it sits idle and there is no airflow!

Please Note: DJI Mini 2 has a new transmission feature called QuickTRansfer, check this guide to learn how to fast download using Quicktransfer.
