### 3/5 — Good but…

*2026-07-02*

It acts kinda weird after using it a lot and it doesn’t let you connect with the dog e and just stays in the Home Screen unless you tap no dog e.  It’s a great app tho

### 3/5 — Fun but need improvements

*2026-05-24*

I love my dog and this app. It is so good and so perfect, but the thing is it glitches often and doesn’t even let me play with my dogs sometimes please fix this and thank you for this wonderful app.

### 4/5 — Love it!!

*2025-12-15*

My friend got me the dog but when I got home from her house, she told me there was a app for it so I downloaded it the funniest thing ever I love how you could change the colors of it make it move and everything. I love it a lot!

### 2/5 — Loves The Dog-E App!

*2025-11-11, version 1.1.3*

My daughter loves playing with her dog-e the app also has a digital dog in the app!

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2025-11-11, version 1.1.3*

The dog-e himself is pretty cute and my son enjoys playing with it. The app however has been useless. It won’t pair or open on an iPhone. I’d suggest the developers update the app and create some new interactive features.

### 5/5 — The app is acting weird?

*2025-03-16*

The app won’t let me Feed, Play, Make a new persona, almost nothing? I don’t know what’s wrong with the app but could you maybe try to fix this? It’s really annoying how I can’t do anything with my Dog-E. Overall it’s a really good and fun app!

### 4/5 — Great

*2025-03-01, version 1.1.3*

Took way to long for app to load

### 5/5 — How good it is

*2025-01-06, version 1.1.3*

I was playing with my robo dog.it.made my robo dog do everything I wanted it to do.

### 3/5 — Is it the app or the dog

*2025-01-04*

So I open the app and it freezes in the screen so it won't let me feed the dog or anything is the app broken? Please fix this I will leave another review if I have to turn the dog on first so if it works so yeah

### 2/5 — iPad connectivity

*2024-12-25, version 1.1.3*

Cannot find any useful info to help with blue tooth connection.  Turned off/on the dog, iPad, Bluetooth, no connection.  Running version 18 on iPad.  Nothing.  Dog-e site does not give any detailed info.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-12-24, version 1.1.3*

I opened it and was very exited,I realised there was an app needed and rushed to get my phone . All the features were amazing and the feeding was epic.  Would definitely recommend.5/5 !

### 5/5 — :-)

*2024-12-21, version 1.1.3*

It’s a robot dog all right.;:)

### 2/5 — Really good!

*2024-12-19, version 1.1.3*

( this is a review of the app, but also of the product, as I am assuming the same people made it) So, I saw this at Harvards, and I BEGGED my mum to get it for Christmas, and I did. It was really fun, and the app adds a whole layer to it. It’s got so many cool features, but some thing that disappointed me and my mum is that you can’t train the dog, which is what she thought it was. I was really upset, because I had only wanted it because I really want a dog, but my parents say we can’t get one. So, I thought you could train it, and it would walk by itself and you didn’t need to pull it, and that it could be a bit more realistic, especially in the sounds and movement, which looks so fake. But apart from that, this is good, but I got bored of it VERY quickly, and I don’t play with it anymore.

### 4/5 — I dont know if its with the app or the dog.

*2024-12-18*

I pet the dog and  it barks and says I did not pet it?? I did it the correct way but it wont work? Same with turbo pet I did it the right way  and it wont work. Lastly, the nose boop thing delays my boops? I even counted in my head and a had more boops than it said(yes I waited till it was green!)

### 4/5 — The Dog’s Tail is nice

*2024-10-20, version 1.1.3*

### 1/5 — Just a dog

*2025-07-31, version 1.1.3*

I open the app and a dog doing nothing is this app still in beta because it acts like it

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-06-17, version 1.1.3*

Why can't I use the app

### 1/5 — App broken

*2025-05-04, version 1.1.3*

Anyone saying this app is great is fake. Most reviews state you can use the app but it doesn’t change anything on your dog. Because the app is broken. You can choose “play without dog-e”. To use the app. But if you do that nothing changes with your dog. It will not actually connect with the dog. Just a screen with a dog picture but it never connects. Devs need to fix this. I’m about to refund it back to Amazon. Half of this toy is this stupid app!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-04-24, version 1.1.3*

this app is horrible when it says press play to get to the dog to do the trick it doesn’t let you. please don’t waste your time downloading this app. It is horrible

*2024-08-05, version 1.1.3*

App doesn’t work on iPad. Won’t ask for permissions so can’t connect to pet. Highly disappointed

### 1/5 — App is being silly

*2024-07-11*

Just got the robot dog today, it’s pretty cool but I’m having trouble with the app itself. I cannot get past the loading screen, I get some cheesy message before I get sent back to some sort of title screen.

### 1/5 — The app won’t open

*2024-02-02, version 1.1.3*

I downloaded the app. It just goes to a page with a picture so a dog and won’t do anything else. There are no options or instructions.

### 1/5 — App not working!!!

*2023-12-28, version 1.1.1*

App won’t get past the intro screen. It flashes to a dog with a play button for 1 sec then back to intro screen. App is useless- please fix asap!!!

I love the dog! But on the app I’m having trouble u see I just got this dog I downloaded the app but it’s stuck on the screen where the intro is like it say dog-e and everything idk what to do any edvice??

### 5/5 — Cool robot dog

*2025-12-25, version 1.1.3*

Really want to play with that person it was really confusing when it’s and don’t allow to allow so I said don’t allow Then it said allow and I said allow and it really works. You can do many things to control the dog even with an iPad or not or I meant device. It’s really fun five star for sure. And if the items are locked, that means you just haven’t connected your robot dog to it. You have to keep it on the floor and then it will start to connect and then everything will be unlocked just saying it works really well. If people say doesn’t work they’re probably lying or not. Well it might work for some people. It might not you just need to be patient. And if you go on Amazon buy it it’s only 39 or 40 good prize for robot dog
