no one is answering in the apps section. need to know asap for the eclipse pano i am taking.

There’s no focus slider like there is in the DJI GO app. I need to set the focus to infinity for taking 360° panos and not have it change on me between shots.

also - how do I manually set the home point? There’s no easy to find ‘set the home point' button either. in the DJI GO app – I can set the point by tapping on the corresponding button, even if the P4P is on the ground.

You don't need to focus at infinity - focusing at 50 ft will be fine.
Here are some numbers to show what the depth of field is for the lens:
Here are some numbers to show what the actual effect is:
At f2.8 and focused at 50 feet - everything from 12ft - infinity is in focus
At f5.6 and focused at 50 feet - everything from 6ft - infinity is in focus
At f11 and focused at 50 feet - everything from 3ft - infinity is in focus

The Phantom sets its own home point perfectly well without any help.
If you want to reset the home point, it's here:

meta - i said *in Litchi*.
Just use autofocus on any object in the distance (50 feet or more away from the camera). I usually aim for a treeline or anything with enough contrast to get verified focus.

No need for manual focus on the p4p

Note: Under camera settings, you can enable "Focus assist" which will automatically zoom in during focusing, making it trivial to review focus even under low light.
