Can't connect to spark without disconnecting from another WiFi source first.

[therefore]

When I start my spark up and I connect to its Wi-Fi using my phone I can connect just fine. But in the DJI go 4 app the option for "go fly" is not enabled until I switch to a different Wi-Fi network and then back to my spark. If I only have my Sparks Wi-Fi to connect to I cannot make the DJI Go app show the go fly button. This was especially frustrating when I was trying to fly it in the middle of nowhere and did not have a Wi-Fi signal to switch off of. Does anybody else experience this or is there a simple way to allow it to connect to the spark first time without a hotspot?

Edit: I don't have an RC. I only use my phone.

Are you switching between flying with just the device sometimes, and using the remote control?

I don't have a remote control.

Are you using a compatible device?

I'm using the original Google pixel. When I get connected to the spark it works great.

That might not be a compatible device -- it's not on this list.

Try a different device that is on that list.

Have you tried opening the app first, and then connecting to the AC? Or possibly turning AP mode on and off?

I have done it both ways. Spark first and phone first and it's the same outcome. What is AP mode?

Airplane mode
