Really good
My kid is so educated Cody He love the robot
Looks like a roomba for kids
It works well enough, but I can't seem to copy/paste code. I'm using a small screen as well, which makes pressing buttons very difficult. I used an algorithm to generate code that I believed I could just paste and get the robot moving, but then I realized I would have to use my big fingers to place over a hundred lines. I know there are more clever methods I could have used, but this just isn't worth the time. Might as well play with turtle graphics and show kids real Python.
Can't get the robot to connect to the app on certain types of tablets. The robot is useless without the working app. I made sure location permission was given. Bluetooth can see the robot but the app cannot. This is the same result across both of my new tablets.
I've had this app for a long time, but now when I try to pair Root, it keeps saying: "app needed" I am not sure who has the responsibility of it, but I am 80% positive it was the app. Just in case it was my phone, 4 stars (it is a good app when it works, again, it might just be my phone)
Will not connect to galaxy s21 ultra from app.
