Suggestion: Beta build number on download page
Just a quick suggestion. It would be helpful if the current beta build number were listed along with the download links on the download page. While of course the app warns when a new version is available, it would be great if a quick glance at the page would also show the current build number. Thanks!

In the Apple TestFlight app it shows the current installed version and all the older versions and builds. I believe the app for a Android is similar. It also indicates the current version in the Native app.
Yes, I noted that in my original comment above. The app warns when there is a new version. But sometimes a user may not open that app for days or longer. If they can just glance at the download web page and see the current app build version in ( ) next to the download link, that would be helpful to let them know a new build is available when they haven't been using the app for a time.
Ok. You said it warns of a new version when you open it. So if it’s open then it takes about two seconds to look. If your asking about using a browser to go into the the DL forum and help articles then that’s different. Seems a lot quicker to me to just open the DL app. It would take me about 5 seconds. You don’t even need to connect the drone. If you think it there is a better way to do it I’d post in Feature request section. Just trying to help. Good luck.
Not everyone has the device they use for Dronelink on hand all the time. Web browsers tend to be ubiquitous. Putting a version number on an app download web page is not exactly a new concept.
Ok. I’d still post in the feature thread section. That’s the is the way DL can track how many people want a new feature by looking at the amount of upvotes. Also the Web app or the Web page for downloading either IOS or Android doesn’t know what version your using with the Native App so it could not indicate what version you currently have. They are two separate systems. One for creating missions and one for flying missions. 5 seconds to check the version. Even if it was possible you will still need to have your device to open the Native app and update. Again, just trying to help and I have never seen any request like this in 2-1/2 years. I guess anything is possible but I’ll let DL staff explain from here. Good luck.
