DL works with A2S on Android devices only right now, Virtual Stick method. IOS devices pending. A2S does not have onboard waypoints capability.
Here are some links.

what is Virtual Stick method. and what do you mean by does not have onboard waypoints im new to this
Virtual Stick is like having a robot operate the Remote Controller to fly the drone. So the drone is still doing what the Remote Controller commands, but instead of your fingers moving the sticks, DL is flying it for you based on the mission you create, where the drone is at and direction it is traveling.
Waypoints, is like having a robot on the drone itself. The flight path has nothing do with the Remote Controller other than transmitting images and flight data. The command of where to fly to (ie WayPoints) are uploaded to the drone itself and the drone follows that list of instructions. It simply goes to each waypoint and does what it was told to do in the list of instructions. When using waypoints, you can take over with your remote controller at which time the drone will abort the list of commands and then you fully control it with your remote controller.
I hope that helps clarify.
left out... not all drones support Waypoints. So using the Virtual Stick method is a way of running an autonomous (automated mission without human control) even though the waypoints is not supported.
