### 4/5 — Good to have, Control you Lego Boost

*2020-10-29, version 1.9.0*

Great app for lego boost control. Easy to connect app and move-hub.  Please explain what reactive C button does?

### 4/5 — Great but a few improvements

*2020-07-30, version 1.9.0*

I was looking for a way to control mo move hub with the LEGO boost app but I couldn’t find a model that controlled the individual motors but then I found this one.
It works great and does what is it supposed to, but it would be better if they added color sensors

### 4/5 — Buona l’idea ma...

*2020-05-16*

Il principio non è male, ma io avrei preferito un pulsante a ruota come quello che regola il volume negli impianti stereo.
Mancano le funzionalità di suoni come nell’app originale. E manca uno stop.

### 5/5 — This is a life saver for iOS LEGO user

*2019-09-09, version 1.8.6*

Best app hands down if you want to control the LEGO boost hub. I’d be awesome if you could add servo / normal options to the c and d ports.  This thing rocks. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2019-07-12, version 1.8.4*

I highly recommend this App Because It Would Be Awsome If You Built Vernie Or M.T.R.4 I Have Installed this App

### 4/5 — GREAT

*2019-06-09, version 1.8.2*

This app is fantastic! It controls my LEGO boost robot with ease and there is no interruption at all. I highly recommend this if you have ERNIE the robot. It would be better if you could move the arms and other parts. Right now it can move around and turn his head.

### 5/5 — It works!

*2019-01-13, version 1.8.2*

Good

### 4/5 — Works as intended, source code available

*2019-01-12, version 1.8.2*

I found this via GitHub, where the source code is available. The app is very simple but correctly connects to the Lego boost hub and allows you to control it. Looking forward to building and tinkering with this.

Thank you for making this!

### 4/5 — It does work

*2018-12-26, version 1.8.2*

Works as expected, you can move it around, just be careful not to move the head around too fast, a piece of the head can snap off

### 5/5 — Quick and easy way to bring Lego to life

*2018-12-25, version 1.8.2*

Just got the Lego Boost 17101 set and wanted a quick way to get the motors going, this app is perfect.  Clean and simple interface with a nice joystick to control movement.  Got my first little robot whizzing around the house in 5 minutes.

### 5/5 — This is the best

*2018-07-29, version 1.7.0*

In the real game you have to code and this is better then coding

### 5/5 — super

*2018-02-10*

better than the lego „joystick“ remote! our neighbors are having the boost (robot) as well. so for a neighborhood hockey championship (training) this app is a must have!
the middle slider for the head could have a limit to activate. otherwise heavy neck fracture...but doctor can fix lego fractures easily...

### 1/5 — Нет подключения

*2024-11-24, version 1.9.3*

Не подглючается

### 1/5 — Не работает!

*2024-06-08, version 1.9.3*

Не подключается ни к чему!

### 1/5 — Нет подключения

*2024-02-28, version 1.9.3*

Не работает. Бесконечно подключается. Хотя пару создала с Ев3

### 1/5 — Unable to pair

*2024-01-11, version 1.9.3*

The app worked initially, but now won’t connect and flashes a purple light instead. Tech support not very strong for this app!

### 1/5 — Complete crapshoot

*2018-01-19, version 1.1.1*

Turned on my Lego boost move hub and went into the app. Nothing happened. Then I realized that it’s a non official ripoff. Don’t waste your devices storage.

### 1/5 — Doesn't do anything at all

*2017-12-27, version 1.1.0*

Me hates

**Developer response:** Thank you for reporting. Could you please try the following step?
1. Turn on Bluetooth on your iOS device
2. Push the connector button on this app
3. Push the green button on your Move Hub

### 2/5 — The app won’t work 😡

*2025-01-18, version 1.9.3*

I bought the AImubot version of the product. (Just vernie) I don’t understand why it won’t work if it’s the same product but different brands. I’m disappointed that the LEGO boost app won’t work because I think it’s a cute kid friendly app but developers please adjust this so other people can connect their OKK-( wich is the brand I got Vernie from) products! I think the app is 3 stars because if it were to work, it’s a handy app. Please fix this issue and thank you thank you thank you soooo much if you do!😊

### 3/5 — How do you operate it

*2023-11-20, version 1.9.3*

How

### 3/5 — It won’t let me connect so I’ll give it 3 stars until I figure out how to do this

*2020-06-13, version 1.9.0*

When I push the green button and the connect button it won’t sync

### 3/5 — Speed controls?

*2018-08-12, version 1.7.0*

This works, but it goes so fast.

### 5/5 — a great app!

*2023-06-22, version 1.9.3*

after a few years of being on a shelf, i wanted to see if my lego boost still worked, i was lucky it did and i realised there was no remote control mode!
i looked it up and i found this app, clean joystick and head moving controls and fast connection, great app!

### 5/5 — Beste App!!!

*2021-12-18*

Richtig gut!

### 5/5 — Просто гениально

*2021-08-21, version 1.9.2*

Гениально просто! Спасибо.

### 5/5 — Yes! Something easy Lego should learn from!

*2021-03-31*

Yeah, this is so beautifully easy 🥰 thank you! Would be nice to have a light switch, maybe this is implementable?

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-01-01, version 1.9.2*

Got a new Lego set and I wanted to use the motors to make my own models and this was perfect for just that. Amazing app, Thanks.

### 5/5 — Impeccable ! Merci!

*2020-11-17*

Pure créativité! Marche très très bien et bonne qualité Bluetooth!

### 5/5 — Very handy

*2020-05-02*

Hey all users of boost I recommend to you to download this app the other one is not fun to use but this one is very fun

### 5/5 — Perfect App

*2020-03-18*

Thanks for this app! I would like to control 2 duplo trains simultaneously. Is it possible to do so? Could it be possible to use also the trains horn and light?
Is it possible to pay for this app and future development?

### 5/5 — Funktioniert gut

*2020-01-04*

Währe toll wenn man Achse c und d feststellen könnte dann muss man dies nicht immer halten.

### 5/5 — Perfect control feature for boost creations

*2019-10-01, version 1.8.6*

I wanted an app like this to drive my robot around plus control 2 extra motors, and it does this just perfect. It allows for joystick control or 2 level style control, allows for change of sensitivity in settings, its easy to connect. The actual lego boost app forces you to build their models, but this app lets you drive your own creations without having to create the official builds first. Sure, this app does not support the complex inputs of light color, distance or programming but thats not what problem this app is designed to fix. This app is designed to allow you to drive your robot like a radio controlled car, and for this purpose this app is perfect. I dont write app reviews but I had to for this app because I was so impressed.
