Did you try doing that after taking off?

It wont bring up the modes unless the P3 is flying.

no i haven't tried taking off . I was worried there might be some kind of problem which would bring my drone down.....do you suggest I try to fly then toggle over to F atti while in flight ??

That is the only way the Intelligent Control controls work in the app, you have to be flying.

You also need to be at least 10 meters off the ground.

Turn on the controller, load the app-- turn on the P3-- Does the app connect to the aircraft.

If it does and and you get the green status bar in the app-- take off-- fly out about 100 feet and up about 50 ft. Switch the mode switch to F and the IOC screen should pop up.
