### 2/5 — A waste of money

*2026-06-23, version 2.0*

Not reliable enough for the price.

### 2/5 — Internet won’t connect

*2022-11-14*

I’ve had this bot ever since the original Mebo messed up. Once I got this mebo 2.0 it was fine until I tried to play with it after I found it. The internet can be found but will not connect. If you cannot fix it will I get a refund along with other people? ~Christopher

### 2/5 — What’s wrong with my bot

*2022-08-12*

I’ve had this thing for about 3 or 4years now then I stoped using it so then I found it the basement it’s still in good condition but it needs it’s own Wi-Fi so I tried connecting it and it said no internet connection so I tried restarting it and that didn’t work and it doesn’t need charging because I never used it a lot when I first got it the product is great but it’s just needs some updates.

### 1/5 — App won’t work

*2022-02-05, version 2.0*

Please update app, it used to work on iPhone now it won’t

### 1/5 — Apple WiFi protocols killed MeBo!

*2022-01-04, version 2.0*

Last year (2020) with the changes to Apples iOS and WiFi protocols with newer devices, this awesome robot simply does not work anymore. It cannot connect, even though the app is still available, but the company does not seem to have plans for an update that will fix this problem, so MeBos everywhere are getting relegated to the junkyard. Such a disappointment!

Luckily, it does still work with my old devices, so if you have this problem, track down an older iPad or iPhone and you should be able to get it going.

### 1/5 — Please update this app

*2021-10-10, version 2.0*

The developers of this app, can you please put out a update that will make the mebo2.0 useful on apple?

### 1/5 — Connection Issues

*2021-07-27, version 2.0*

My MeBo 2.0 dose not connect at all when I first got this 2 year’s ago there was no issues ever Sinai had it on a shelf it has never bin dropped or abused in any way it’s practically in mint condition

This is great, but it needs updated, as it’s no longer compatible.

### 2/5 — Only works on my oldest device

*2021-01-31, version 2.0*

Only Works on my mini iPad .. iOS 9.  All newer devices connect to mebo wifi ok but won't "find" him in the app.

### 3/5 — Cool but needs an UPDATE

*2020-12-21*

This robot is amazing but after multiple attempts to connect it the app keeps saying I’m not connected to the WiFi network, even though I clearly am. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!!!!!

This was an amazing app but after a years I forgot about and now trying to play with it again my mebo needs a password?

### 1/5 — Update the app

*2020-12-07, version 2.0*

I bought mebo about 2 years ago and i decided to use it again so i went to connect to the wifi and it just wouldent work i reset it about 5 times please update it

### 1/5 — APP IS OUT OF DATE

*2020-12-06, version 2.0*

This app needs to be updated. It has been 3 years since it has been updated. The robot does not work, because the app will not pair with the robot due to it being so old.

### 1/5 — MeBo app won’t sync with MeBo anymore

*2020-11-30, version 2.0*

Please help the MeBo 2.0 owners resolve this problem. My son has had this for two years and it’s sat packed up for one of them.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-11-16*

Why do toy makers make things so difficult. A simple hand held remote would have sufficed but they use an App that won’t connect. You people are ruining children’s love of robotic toys with your over-priced, under-performing “paper weights”

### 1/5 — It won’t connect

*2020-10-14, version 2.0*

I got it for Christmas 2 years ago and then lost interest trued to pair it and it wouldn’t pair. I see that the last time they updated the app was 2 years ago.

### 1/5 — MiAkhi

*2020-10-10*

It is a shame that this robot doesn’t work well it constantly drops off Wi-Fi they need a fix it’s been too long with same issues they need to come up with a upgrade that would make it run like other rc devices like cars or drone which also run off cellular phones

### 1/5 — Please Upgrade Use To New Phones!

*2024-05-14, version 2.0*

Dear Skyrocket, please upgrade your app to work on newer iPhone models, as nobody still uses iPhone 6 and lower 😐

### 1/5 — Wi-Fi doesn’t work

*2023-12-29*

It works then 1 year later it won’t work and says it’s not connecting it is probably worse then a temu robot when u press the help button it doesn’t help at all. Don’t buy waist of money :(

### 1/5 — Deserves -1000 Stars.........

*2023-08-18*

Such a fancy pancy you product, was so excited when I got it for my birthday, loved and played with it every single day for about a month until a motor stopped working! Contacted Skyrocket, but of course they couldn’t fix and no refunds.

WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY 💰 $_$

Never used it again, cause, duh!!! I can’t, it doesn’t work!!

If you buy this product, you are a complete moron just like me and the developers! 😡 

Plus, the thing is such a piece of LAG and whoever came up with idea had a good idea, but did the worst job implementing it. Also, if I’m not mistaken, the box and the description in this app to use him to sneak on other people. You can’t!!! The motor are so noisy, I could hear it coming from 100 miles away! 

WHAT A PIECE OF SHIP!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect

*2023-05-16, version 2.0*

When I tried to connect I didn’t no wonder it’s three stars and waste of money.

*2023-01-24*

Sinceramente dinheiro jogado fora

### 1/5 — Agree with previous person

*2022-12-11*

Found my old Mebo 2.0 in the attic, will no longer find it through the app even though I did the forced reset. Connects the Wi-Fi portion to the Mebo fine, just the app cannot find it for some reason

### 1/5 — Fix this awful app

*2022-08-24, version 2.0*

I’ve been trying to open this app and use this robot for the past 20 min. It is extremely frustrating every time I try to connect to the Wi-Fi, but  I’m ALREADY CONNECTED TO ITS WI-FI. Fix it

### 1/5 — Update the app

*2022-04-09, version 2.0*
