What is the App Market?
The App Market enables businesses to extend the power of DroneDeploy by installing 3rd party applications built by domain experts on the DroneDeploy platform to gain deeper and more specialized insights into their business operations. These apps, tightly integrated into the DroneDeploy platform, are available on all supported devices and augment flight planning, logging, data analysis, and data syncing with common industry software.

Finding and Using Installed Apps
All apps are available for any user to install, however, to run a paid app, you will need to be a paid DroneDeploy customer with an active subscription.
Apps appear in different areas of the DroneDeploy interface depending on what they do. For example, a flight planning app will appear in the flight planning interface, whereas an export or integration app may appear in the export menu. Here is an example of an app in the flight planning interface:
