Activation of DJI Care insurance after 48 hours - verification video - new rules
DJI Care Refresh insurance is normally activated within 48 hours of activating the drone. However, it happens that we miss the moment to assign insurance to our device or buy an uninsured drone second-hand. Until now, in order to get the opportunity to use DJI Care, you had to send a recording showing in detail the drone and the maneuvers performed with it, as we described in the article here. Then the manufacturer would send a reply within 3 days with the decision.

DJI's proprietary insurance must be growing in popularity - not only that the manufacturer enabled its extension for another year presenting the option DJI Care Refresh +, it has definitely simplified the procedure of assigning DJI Care after 48 hours of clicking ACTIVATE in the DJI GO 4 / DJI Fly app.

Watch the video or read the instructions below to learn how to prepare a verification video to activate DJI Care Refresh after 48 hours.

The main improvement introduced by DJI is that now all you need is a screen recording on your smartphone! Turn on subtitles to see the translation.
