Reviews of LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Inventor

Technic® XL Motor Causing Issue

(Review for iPad app)
Great app, however when I changed my MVP model to use a Technic® XL Motor for the drive motor rather than the standard medium angular motor, the remote control codes (all three of mine, one of which is for DualShock control) stopped working correctly. All three codes had worked correctly the day before the modification of the model, but now the steering point-blank refuses to work. I manually tried the steering on the model, and the motor pushed back with power, trying with all its might to keep the wheels central. Note that this was only a problem for the remote control codes. All other codes (downloadable to the hub) worked correctly. Fix this soon, please!

Great app

This app is great although I would like to request this feature: May you please add the Lego Spike Force Sensor feature in this app as well? I have the Force Sensor but I don’t have the hub which means I cannot use the Spike 3 App. I have tried Pybricks but it doesn’t work.
Also can you add this feature as well: A way in the app that allows to update the hub so that you can use it in spike 3 app?

App won't work properly…

Hello. I was taking a break from building my robot but now when I want to continue it and re-open the app to complete the robot, only the logo shows up. I cannot get instructions up. I'm also hearing rumours that this app is being continued. If that's the case, how could you…
