Unable to select a subject for tracking (Android)

  1. Skydio
  2. Skydio 2/2+
  3. Flying Skydio 2/2+

Skydio App or Skydio Enterprise app (Android Only): If you have display Accessibility or Magnification settings enabled on your Android device, you may not be able to select any of the tracking icons subjectSelect.pngcarSelect.png to select a subject for Motion Tracking.

The drone performs as expected in every other capacity. Tracking icons are available, but you are unable to select them.

How to resolve it

This is a known software compatibility issue with the Android platform and the Skydio App and Skydio Enterprise App that our team is working to resolve.

In the meantime, check your device for any display Accessibility or Magnification settings to ensure those are turned off:

  1. Open your device's Settings app.
  2. Tap Accessibility, then tap Magnification.
  3. Turn off the Magnification shortcut. See this article for more details.

    NOTE: Some of these steps work only on Android 11.0 and up.

Once turned off, the Skydio App should perform as expected and allow you to select a subject for Motion Tracking.
