Firstly I think that they should add more buttons onto the game pad or make a mode where you can create your own gamepad. Secondly I think there should be more then just the two controllers(led controller and gamepad) such as maybe a joy stick or just a row of buttons, the a joystick would also be a great addition for the game pad maybe having different preset options for it such as arrows and buttons, two joystick and simple buttons, joystick and buttons ect. Over all very good but it could be even better with those things added. ### 4/5 — Buena Apple *2024-12-29, version 2.0.2* Good ### 4/5 — auto connect matters *2024-07-07, version 2.0.2* Very decent ble app, would be an art if the auto connect problem fixed, since the ble service are listed in reverse order… :) ### 4/5 — Good but… *2024-05-07, version 2.0.2* Dabble is good for basic arduino projects but theres no offline automation and no scripts you can run (not the devs fault automation and script don’t work on ios offline I think) ### 5/5 — Beginners bonanza *2023-06-23, version 2.0.2* It is really easy but equally interesting fir an absolute beginner like me! ### 4/5 — Works pretty well *2023-06-22, version 2.0.2* This seems to work pretty well to drive our arduino robot via an iPhone. Does seem to lag a little and sometimes the robot continues to move even if we aren’t touching the iPhone. ### 5/5 — Dabble *2023-06-06, version 2.0.2* I love it and it works very well ### 5/5 — Worked perfectly!! *2023-04-27, version 2.0.1* Make sure if you’re using the Arduino IDE and ESP32, that your library is up to date. Was getting an error with std::string, but when I used an updated version it worked beautifully. ### 5/5 — Jamarius *2023-02-15, version 2.0.1* Boles ### 3/5 — Game pad does not work *2022-11-07, version 2.0* Terrific app but after the iOS 16 update the game section is useless. The app doesn’t show the entire game pad ### 5/5 — Love this app *2022-08-26, version 2.0* Awesome app does everything I want and great documentation. ### 5/5 — Good app *2022-08-04, version 2.0* Good ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not all functions are available on iPhone *2023-07-18, version 2.0.2* Not all functions are available on iPhone ### 1/5 — Buggy app *2023-01-11, version 2.0* It’s not updated so the ui is completely messed up ### 1/5 — Terrible *2022-12-21, version 2.0* Buttons do not show for game pad. ### 1/5 — UPDATE YOUR APP *2022-12-19, version 2.0* the controller function is broken so you cant turn your robot or use the buttons. update the app so it works on iPhones without a home button at least! ### 1/5 — Gamepad doesn’t load *2022-12-05, version 2.0* I’m desperately trying to use this app, and I’ve heard a lot of good things about it. I’m using an HM-10 bluetooth chip with arduino to control a rover. I’ve tried a dozen things and the gamepad will not load properly. After selecting the gamepad module I just get 2 arrows (one pointing left and one pointing right) and then nothing on the app work, and I have to close the app to do anything. ### 1/5 — SchiencEr *2022-05-30, version 2.0* Autiblemunuchicken ### 1/5 — Horrible *2021-11-20, version 2.0* Horrible do not recommend ### 1/5 — Rip off *2019-11-17, version 1.0* I tryed it out and it didn’t work I want you to fix this right NOW 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 ### 2/5 — GPS data transfer doesn’t work reliably *2022-12-11, version 2.0* This is why I sought the app to transfer cell data to my rover. Dabble never reliably sent the info Phone sensor data is flaky and the change they made to the remote simulator was not good ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work with 16.1 update!!! *2022-12-09, version 2.0* Please fix the gamepad, it won’t turn and it only shows left and right controls. The format is way off and I need to use Dabble for my final project next week!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2026-04-26, version 2.0.2* Good/10 ### 5/5 — Can connect but gamepad doesn’t work on iOS :/ *2026-04-01, version 2.0.2* Can you fix the gamepad for iOS for esp32? I’m using a xiao esp32-c3 trying to read the joystick values and they are all blank ### 5/5 — THANK YOU DEVS!!!! *2026-02-03, version 2.0.2* I don’t know what anyone would complain about especially when it’s free. It works fantastic with my robot arm that I built. I wish I could modify the game pad controller a little bit so when I press the start or select button that I have assigned for fine step motor function a little dialogue box could pop up and give the user notes, but I’m not complaining. Five stars! Thank you guys for making this app and bringing joy to my life. I’m grateful for everyone involved in making this beautiful app ### 5/5 — Works solid and costs nothing for full utilization *2025-12-05, version 2.0.2* Just like the title says it an awesome tool with solid compatibility for esp32 board and libraries ### 5/5 — My *2025-07-24, version 2.0.2* Esp32 ### 5/5 — ⚗️ *2025-05-12, version 2.0.2* 📟 ### 5/5 — Love it! *2024-12-27, version 2.0.2* It was so easy to connect my Arduino R4 WiFi and start my project straight away. A real accelerator! Even better if you could create a sort of mapper to map the commands you see in the terminal to some virtual actions or notifications! Please keep up the amazing work! ### 5/5 — Arduino robot fun *2024-11-16, version 2.0.2* Dabble was the only part of my project that worked first time without a problem. ### 5/5 — Nice try *2024-09-02, version 2.0.2* Pk ### 5/5 — Super pratique *2024-04-22, version 2.0.2* J’adore ça simplicité --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
