Works well!

Good idea.

Appbot Riley

This will NOT connect to my network. I've tried iPhone 6,7plus and iPad Pro all with the latest software. Too bad could be cool.

Awesome little robot

Pros-
surprisingly quick response with controls

Good camera quality

Night vision is great

Docking easy with one push of a button

If Riley falls over, easy one button push to put right side up

Good two way communication option

Battery life seems to be at least an hour with continuous use

Controlling Riley while on docking station is a nice option

Easily navigated carpet to hard wood flooring

Cons-

In app camera quality resets to low automatically after exiting app

Mic is either too sensitive or quality issue, but puts out a loud humming noise when activated

Notifications have significant lag when motion is detected

Riley bot is loud when controlling

I have no idea what the facial recognition does and little guidance with instructions

Does not have fingerprint password option

When moving forward with bot, there is a slight pull to the left which causes you to stop forward motion and correct direction by turning to the right

Does not have an option to set up an unmanned patrol path

Night vision should automatically activate in low light environment

Does not work on Cellular

I will say, with the exception of a few snags, it works great when connected to any wifi.

However, on cellular - of which I have T-Mobile 4G LTE - it does not work at all. It won't even get me to the camera.

So with that said, it deserves 2 stars because the intended purpose is to be able to check your home when you are on the go.

I hope they fix this.

No connection

New updates will not allow app to connect to robot. This renders the $200 unit useless. Tech support will not return calls.

Would be amazing if it worked.

T-Mobile issue with iOS update connectivity bug was not fixed on last two updates. This needs to be fixed.

It doesn't work on ios 10.2

It doesn't work on ios 10.2. With the internet of the cel just with the wifi.

App doesn't work

It doesn't work on t-mobile. It's also has a lot of lag on the internet. I would hesitate to buy this product until they had a better app.

Broken. Do not buy!!!

Never let's you connect. App just hangs. Will contact my credit card company and dispute charge as it's useless.

No longer works

Before the update I would occasionally get "Cannot find robot", but when I would try it again it would immediately work. After the recent update to apparently correct "network connectivity", the app can now NEVER find the robot.
