### 1/5 — We are cooked

*2024-11-30, version 7.0*

We are cooked because we spent 6 hours on our tech fair and it. Won’t connect

### 5/5 — Does the job

*2023-07-24, version 7.0*

Used this for the Keyes mini tank robot.  It’s much easier to control using this app than writing characteristics with a generic Bluetooth app.

Other reviews seem to be about difficulty assembling the kits, the instructions were at times a little hard to grok but all the info was there.  Copying the arduino code from the PDF was a pain, wish there was a GitHub link instead.  

This review is for the app though, the app does what it’s supposed to.  My only complaint is that when I put the robot into the mode where it uses the phone accelerometer to control it stays in the mode permanently and responds to movements of my phone.  I would like to be able to disable this feature without reuploading the arduino code

### 1/5 — Super sad Emmett

*2023-06-28, version 7.0*

Emmett was crying because it did not work.

### 1/5 — IT EXPLODED!!!!!!

*2023-04-18, version 7.0*

I am a student at a school. My remote control vehicle from this business was inadequate. Did I mention I am a student at a school. When I attempted to connect my device to the vehicle, it lit on fire; did I mention that the fire was followed up by an explosion. I am also a student at a school.

### 1/5 — Developer plz read this

*2023-02-11, version 7.0*

I got my robot for my birthday and i was so exited! I got to work right away! The instuction where extremely hard to read but i finnished it and made sure everything was perfect! I put in fresh batteries and dowloaded the app. I connected the robot and then the robot shoots forward completely out of control! The buttons on my screen wouldent work and the robot nonstop charged forward! Nomatter what i did the robot would never listen to the controls. Please fix this, this made me so angry and sad. Unless its fixed this whole thing is basically a waste of time and money.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2022-01-16, version 7.0*

It doesn’t work at all I put it together according to the instructions which by the way we’re terrible and hard to understand. When I go in the app, I select my car and it says connected but whenever I tap the light just blinks. It’s sad and just a waste of time and money.

### 1/5 — Not working, please read all.

*2022-01-13, version 7.0*

After several painstaking hours at a computer trying to download the code to the computer, I found out that the hard to find instructions are outdated and are using windows 10. The computer I was using was windows 11, so I would advise maybe updating your website because I have tried everything. Finally I stumbled upon this app as a last hope so just maybe this will work, I downloaded it, tried it, and it did not work. The Bluetooth chip indicated it was connected, but was not moving. And for some reason there is a yellow light that keeps blinking. My robot is the little turtle bot. That would be really cool to see it working but after all everything is outdated. All that money wasted on something that blinks. I hope the app developer reads these and hopefully helps me out a little bit.

### 5/5 — Keyestudio HM10 Bluetooth app

*2020-06-23, version 7.0*

Works perfectly with IOS for Desktop Smart Car v3.   Make sure the BLE module is connected properly or reverse it if you are having difficulties connecting.

### 1/5 — Can not use

*2019-12-30, version 6.0*

It will not pair with my micro bit mini car.
