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…

Any update on the App?

It would be great to keep it up to date though...

Thanks

The best only game I play I do not have a Mindstorm but the game is good

Amazing stuff

Hey guys Helmet from Lego life here. I really enjoy this even though I’m not even 10 lol. Guess I’m a little brainy for my age. Besides that, the current bot my MINDSTORMS is in is blast. Btw can you add a camera extension sometime. It’s my goal to become a very good YouTuber and having like a GoPro or something that has a camera that can attach itself to things would be amazing. I hope you get this Lego. Bye!

Two missing parts that are on the robot

So there are two parts that are needed but are on the robot. Lego you need to have more of them in the box.

Let's get you back to coding! Request the missing pieces for free at LEGO.build/BricksPieces-Apple and we'll send them your way as soon as possible. 🤖 - Sonia, LEGO® Customer Service

I want some more things

Hi LEGO, your app is good but i want you to add some more things 1. Line and Bar graphs: i want to have line and bar graphs in the robot inventor app too. It’s unfair if spike prime only has the bar and line graphs. please add the bar and line graphs to robot inventor please 2. Time sensing block: I want you to add a time sensing block that can be configured to use 12 hour or 24 hour clock. and it’ll use data from your device’s clock: add the hours and minutes because this extra sensing block will be helpful for people who made clocks out there.
3. Fix some bugs:
i have experienced some bugs: when i stop a program sometimes the motors don’t stop and also it randomly disconnects. I want you to fix these bugs please.
Anyway thanks for
reading my review LEGO. kind regards Riley

Thanks for reaching out and sharing your suggestions. We'll pass them on to our developers. Regarding the issues you're experiencing, a firmware update might help. You can update the hub through USB or Bluetooth. First, connect it with the app and make sure it’s also connected to a power source. Start the firmware update by selecting ‘Update Hub OS’ on screen. The hub will restart when the update is complete! - Nelson, LEGO® Customer Service

This app HADn’t failed me

I was using this app with my powered up motors to control my train
But recently my audio announcements stoped playing from my iPad I tried restarting the app and the whole iPad and even that didn’t help

Apart from this my experience has been fine

Takes so long to work

Good programming though.
