### 4/5 — fun, but SUPER OUTDATED. also, i have some suggestions

*2026-01-04*

tried this after getting my new custom A-LT series utility droid, but in the droid builder it didn’t have any options for that. also the naming system is pretty bad, you cant have nicknames for your droids (that i know of) and your locked to bb, r1,r2,etc. i also have some suggestions. 1. a group mode where you can connect multiple droids and have them dance or play tic tac toe or anything else together/individually. during the group mode, talking between the droids in the group are % boosted. 2. a follow mode where the droid follows your device. good for driving them around without having to constantly moving him forewards. 3. MORE TRACKS FOR THE DANCE MODE! AND MORE MOVEMENTS TOO! dance/manuever mode is really fun but it could use some more stuff. 4. and last, more 2 player games you can play with your droids.            thanks for making such a fun app, devs! please try and implement my stuff if you can!

### 5/5 — Such a fun app! More content please!

*2025-11-07*

This is one of the most fun ways to control the droids I have! All I wish it had was more content because it has been 5 months since the last update and four years since the one before that and they were bug fixes. 
Still very Very way to control my droids, just wish it had more content to play with!

### 5/5 — Question

*2025-09-07, version 2.0*

Do I Get To Keep My Own Droid Forever?

### 5/5 — Please add more

*2025-09-01*

I play with the app every now and again but I ask for you to please update it, I have three droids (R5, bucket-head, and A-LT) you should note that there is still no C unit or A-LT units on the app, it still works but there your not able to make your droids profile look like them, also a few more features for more fun could help.

PS- please read this

### 5/5 — I have a few suggestions

*2025-08-20*

I really hope you guys see this  because i have a awesome suggestions for this app.

1: Follow mode, basically your droid follows the device signal  to make it look like it’s following you instead of you having to manually drive it

2: Patrol mode, basically like other reviews it has sensors that detects where stuff is like the G1T4 M1N1 

2.5: also when you drive the droid the head should move around 

3:Commuication like the sphere droids when their on communicate mode they will communicate with one another with actions like head movement body movements etc 

Anyways this app is really good Chopper keeps on falling off the sidewalk but otherwise 5 stars

Ps: please work on these it would make the community happier

### 4/5 — Really nifty, but…

*2025-07-14, version 2.0*

Can we please get an update? Only r series and bb series are available on the profile. I’d love to actually be able to put mine on the app proper. Still connects and works fine, it’s just a nit picky thing with the profile that bugs me

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-07-07, version 2.0*

After saying the remote is off app logs out

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-06-25, version 2.0*

Do not get if you have a dorid it will not work keeps disconnecting i would rate it 0 if I could if you want this app don’t if you are reading this app sorry disney but worst app EVER!!!

### 4/5 — Update

*2025-06-15, version 2.0*

I like the idea of this app but when are you guys going to update it??? in the droid builder theres no option to build a C-unit or an A-LT because ive been thinking about finally buying a droid but i want to know what parts are available or how it looks

### 2/5 — Needs FULL update.

*2025-06-03, version 2.0*

This app needs updating. It D-O needs to be added to the droids list and it should be able to save the droids that have been synced. Not have to start from scratch all over again. (It would also be cool if you could have the app control multiple droids at once with the dance routine.)
