  • Great app for sphero but what abt Ollie

    This is a great app to use if you want to control any of the Sphero products. However it does not seem to have a function to control the Ollie, I bought the Ollie at release and enjoyed it for a while but one day it just got put onto a shelf and left there for a couple of years. I ended up deleting the app used to control the all leave and I wanted to revisit it this year but I can’t seem to find an app that controls it.

  • Interesting app

    A good way to control Sphero robots for sure, it is not the same amount of quality as the Edu app though, some UI elements just look aesthetically off. Needs an aesthetic update to keep up with modern app design conventions. Otherwise completely functional and works great.
  • Odd glitch involving sound

    I went on sphero on my iPhone 12 and there is no sound. I turn my volume up all the way and still no sound. I turn my phone on silent mode on and off like 10 times and still no sound?! I shut down my phone and turn it back on and still no sound so I can and will rate two star
  • Kicking

    Good
  • Why no droids?

    I wish you could use the old droids as the app isn’t on the App Store anymore so I got it hoping to try out my bb9e but it didn’t work. Sphero pls add the droids into it I have a force band too.
  • Great but could use a few more features.

    It would be nice to see the app laid out more like the SpheroEDU Drive app with the controls for the lights, speed, and movement all on one page. I do prefer the Play app for my Sphero Bolt because it works with the gyroscope on my phone to ensure the Bolt is aimed properly regardless of which direction I’m facing, and it does a few fun animations on the LED Matrix whereas the SpheroEDU app does not offer these features. I would also like to see the ability added to enable the Front LED and the Back LED and adjust the color as well as controls for the LED Matrix on the Sphero Bolt. Currently these features can only be enabled and controlled by writing a program for the Bolt. I’d like to be able to display a scrolling message on the screen of the Bolt, enable the front and back LED and drive the robot manually. Currently there’s no way to do this. Hopefully we’ll see an update soon.

  • Star Wars discontinued

    Why would you ever discontinue the Star Wars robots? I paid $400 for mine just for it to be a worthless piece of junk. I was excited to because I had just found mine because I wasn’t using it for a while and I thought it might be fun to try again just to learn that it’s been discontinued. Great way to show people to not buy your products if it’s just going to be discontinued. Really disappointed with this. Maybe bring the app back for the robots that we paid for.

  • Really cool

    This is really fun and cool.
  • Option for BB-8 and other droids

    Hi I bought this app to try and see if it would work with the old BB-8 as the app for it is no longer on the App Store and noticed there was no option for the old droids and was wondering if that could become a thing?
  • Bring back the fun games!

    What happened to the fun games?
    Sharky the Beaver for example. What about some of the promised augmented reality? Why even waste time on this boring stuff that you keep crankin’ out
