Lost "tap to focus" feature ...
- Thread starter Dobmatt
- Start date
There is a manual focus/auto focus Icon in the upper right side of the. If the green box is gone, you can tap on the yellow target (upper right) and the green box should come back and you are back in auto focus mode.
Then you can place the green box on any place on the screen you need.
Hope that helps!

Thank you for advice, but no success: green AF box icon changes alternatively with yellow aperture icon, but tapping on screen doesn't create target square to move around. Lens (12mm Oly) is in AF ring position, focusing mode is on AF, autofocus assistant is on ... Switched to standard RC with iPad Air 2, works just fine ... All up to date ...
Interesting, not sure I caught your drift before, when I get home, let me get mine out and check it, better than going from memeory.
Someone else may have encountered this,
Just checking - did you calibrate the lens? ( I dont think that should matter because it still should try to focus for you)

Since the issue is reported by many other CS users, it may be just a bug in recent Android Go 4 app version, who knows. Yes, all lenses are calibrated, but this is irrelevant, I believe. Thank you for confirmation in advance.

I've had the exact same thing happen w/ my I2 using the basic controller. It still happens every now and then, but seems to resolve itself without me doing anything.
Just wondering you ever figure this out? - Was going to get my android tablet out and see if I could find out how to turn that feature off, but never got around to it?

Nope. DJI forum moderator replied that disappearing Tap to Focus feature indeed seems to be bugged in Go 4 app incarnation embedded into CrystalSky OS, which is not accessible by users and can be fixed by future FW version only.
I had exactly the same problem and the tap to focus option would not work. I did solve it though!!
You say you are using the Olympus 12mm Zuiko lens. It has a ring that you can either set to manual focus or automatic focus. The ring moves in and out. If you can see the scale for focus distance then the ring is set in manual focus and the app will not work. Pull the ring to cover the distance scale and you will be back in auto focus mode.
Try the App again.
I hope this is the same problem and I hope this helps solve it - it took me ages to find the solution !!
Cheers
