Further than what? Absolute range is determined by the RC (not app choice). You could be limited by distance setting. Can you be a little more specific as to what issue you are experiencing?
Also its more likely your flying in an urban area full of WiFi signal and such. Its not about what app you use. Its where you fly. I can fly out to over 3 miles in an open field but as soon as I hit an urban area I would be lucky to get 300 meters
