How to install FreeFlight Pro 5.2.7 on newer Android phones or tablets (tested on Android 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

You will be installing an .apk file and copying a folder named com.parrot.freeflight3 to the /Android/obb folder on your phone.
There are two ways to accomplish this.

Option #1 (easiest) is to copy the files from a Windows PC to your phone.
Option #2 is to use a 3rd party app to copy/move the files on your phone without a Windows PC

OPTION #1:

Download the .apk and obb folder to your computer from the site linked below.

https://apksos.com/download-app/com.parrot.freeflight3?version=1924916

It will download a .zip file. Unzip/extract the file to your computer (usually in your Downloads directory) then navigate to where you extracted the files. You will copy two items to your phone. The “com.parrot.freeflight3” directory into the /Android/obb directory and the “com.parrot.freeflight3.apk” application package into whichever directory you’d like.

Plug your phone into your computer and when prompted on your phone, select “File Transfer”. This will open up the file manager on your PC and should display “Internal Storage” or “Internal shared storage” for the phone’s storage device.

Open the phone’s “Internal Storage” and copy the “com.parrot.freeflight3.apk” application package to your Download folder (or wherever you’d like).

Next, copy the “com.parrot.freeflight3” directory from the /Android/obb directory on your computer to the /Android/obb directory on your phone.

Once the FreeFlight Pro .apk and obb folder are copied to your phone you can disconnect it from your computer.
On your phone you will next launch the FreeFlight Pro .apk to start the install.

With the file manager installed on your phone (usually called “Files”), navigate to the folder where you placed the FreeFlight Pro .apk and tap the “com.parrot.freelight3.apk” file to begin the install of FreeFlight Pro. You will be prompted to allow installation of files from unknown sources. Accept the prompt and proceed with enabling install from unknown sources.

The install will complete and now you should be able to use FreeFlight Pro.



OPTION #2:

Download the .apk and OBB folder from the site linked below.

It will download a .zip file. Unzip the file then transfer the files to your phone or download it directly to your phone and use an app like Zip Extractor to extract the files.
https://apksos.com/download-app/com.parrot.freeflight3?version=1924916

Once the files are extracted on your phone navigate to the FreeFlight Pro .apk file where you unzipped it and open it.
You will be prompted to allow installation of files from unknown sources. Accept the prompt and proceed with enabling install from unknown sources.

Download the app "Files" by "Marc apps & software" from the Google Play Store.
Its icon is blue with a white file folder in the center.

Disable your built in file manager app. If you don’t do so, then the new file manager doesn't work.
Go to Settings > Apps > See All Apps.
Find the preinstalled file manager app and tap on Disable > Disable in the confirmation prompt.

Follow the instructions on the page linked below to copy the com.parrot.freeflight3 folder to the /Android/obb/ folder.

FreeFlight Pro should now be installed & functional

When I try to extract the zip file, it says its corrupted.
 
any solution to how to unlock the Flight plan in FFPro as that feature seems to be not working when trying to do an in app purchase
 
I seemed to find a work-around to the problem. I had wiped out one of my phones when I upgraded and I tried putting freeflight pro back in but couldn't use the file mentioned above because it seems to be corrupted. I still had an older phone with a working copy of freeflight pro so from the post:

"Next, copy the “com.parrot.freeflight3” directory from the /Android/obb directory on your computer to the /Android/obb directory on your phone."

I copied the same directory from the older phone with the working copy to the other phone and now the app works. I just have to see if I can still email myself the flight data
 
Any ways to get the flight plan and follow me options for ff pro? The links for the in alp purchases are dead
 
hello, can you post a link to download the APK file? where did you get the unlocked version with flightplan? upload the APK file to a free file hosting if you can?
I modded It miself

Thank you, thank you and thank you again, everything works great. You are great!!! But first I had to uninstall the previous application and reinstall the new version, yours, and copy the obb folder as in the instructions. Everything worked immediately on Android 13, amazing, I have never tested this before, I am tempted to try it soon, but I have to replace the servo first. I have quite a lot of experience with this model, if you want to ask something, feel free to do so. Best regards.
