IOS11 was released Sept 19th. Did you allow the upgrade and everything work OK? DJI says there are issues.
If it's still not working, try uninstalling the Go4 app. Then turn off the iPad and reboot, then load the Go4 app again and see if that makes any difference. I've heard others had success with that.
Well, I should have said I'm running an older version of GO4.
4.0.8. I do have the latest IOS. I'm not set for auto updates.

Cheers John. I had actually just done that before coming back on. The app has definitely stopped crashing on its own so things may be better now. Still getting the interference warnings but I am at home now and it could actually be interference.
I had checked downloads and all were up to date beforehand. Hopefully sorted, it’s such a shame you can’t suss this out without actually flying as I need to travel out before I can.
On another note
Has anyone experienced a gimbal/camera being off centre after calibration? I.e. push stick forward (only) and the Phantom crabs a bit off track in relation to the camera, same with side travel as well?
This is common. Many craft will come from the factory with a crooked camera.
See this thread, particularly post #2 that shows how to fix it.

When you are happy with the flight characteristics of your craft, STOP UPDATING! If there are no serious issues adequate to justify updating, don't be tempted to update again. You risk spending hours fixing things that don't work if you aways update. DISABLE auto update for your Go4 app! IGNORE suggestions from DJI to update firmware.
Oh yeah, make sure you turn off your tablet wifi and your cellphone wifi when flying. It seems that recent Go4 updates are more sensitive to smart devices hunting 2.4Ghz wifi band for an access point to connect with, which interferes with lightbridge when flying on 2.4Ghz band. Flying on 5.8Ghz mitigates this issue.
I have 10.5 running iOS 11.2.1. I’m testing it for my upcoming trip. I use my iPad for everything. I don’t close any app that I run unless the app has any problem. I have both DJI GO4 and GSP on my device. I have all settings turned on on GO4 to see if I get any problems. So far nothing.
I had that issues was cleared by updating the iOS as per recommendations from this forum since then it's been working great
I've read about various problems with the DJI GO 4 updates so I manually update the apps on my iPad. I haven't updated the GO 4 app in a few months. I'm still using version 4.1.12. I just checked to see what the latest version is. That is 4.1.20. Is there any reason why I shouldn't update? Everything is fine with the one I'm using.
I'm currently using IOS 11.2.5 on my iPad Pro.

Don't update Go4 or firmware unless you have a compelling reason to. If it works, don't mess with it. Especially if you have 1.3.509 firmware in the craft. That version is priceless IMO.

In the iPhone or iPad it’s - Settings - iTunes/App Store. You’ll see Automatic downloads. Turn updates off. You the. Have to manually selects apps that you want to update.
OK, got it. Auto updates were already turned off. I thot maybe there was also a setting in Go4. I see where it wants to update to 4.1.18. Just checked and I'm still at 4.1.7. Will leave it as is. 
Thanks for that.
Some good news on the latest update. Horizontal camera adjustment is available.
