ROLA

This Robot really amazed me with the cool customizations in the app and it is always nice to see my cat when I’m away. This is worth $200 US Dollars.

Not smart. Limited.

Robot is ok quality construction, but the limited software is always a problem. With the play module installed, there is no way to automate turning on or off the laser toy. My cats love the laser, but none of the automated play routines allow you to turn it on or off - so either you leave it on 24/7 or off. Stupid limitation. Also the play butterfly mechanism has a tendency to stick in a position where the laser beam is not visible to the cats. Poor design and poor software updates. After 2 years I am still waiting for better play options. Monthly subscription fee is outrageous and useless.

Nope

Cute idea but mine is perpetually lost or dead somewhere random. Paid for the subscription for the daily vlog no clue how to activate or access it… going back to my ubiquity cameras.

WiFi

Robot keeps loosing connection to WiFi. Fails to load video and have had to reset a couple times now in order to get working properly. Quite glitchy to be honest. Not overly impressed . Turning via control is also very sharp and uncontrollable if wanting to go fast, no real smooth transition for left and right turns.

Shows ads on launch

They're showing a fullscreen ad on the launch screen advertising their new product. It's dismissible, but this is extremely annoying, because if I open the app, I want to see the camera feed ASAP.

Cool idea, terrible app

We wanted to like this little robot but never got the chance to try it out. The application is atrocious in design and functionality. It was probably an afterthought that was thrown together in an afternoon by an intern. I’m not kidding it’s that bad. It’s also obvious that this app was not designed by or for English-speakers. Translations are so-so on many things within. I was never able to get the app to even generate a QR code for my robot to scan with multiple vague error messages even though I followed the instructions. We are returning this and looking for a product with a better app and UI.

It works

The app and the functionality is what holds this robot back. Things work fine, but if you are using this app, you got a “budget line” Ebo and it feels that way. Updates seem to fix some bugs bit that about it.

Missing 'Return to Charger' button

The 'Return to Charger' button is missing in the latest update

Total garbage

If you’ve already bought one of these “smart” robots and it’s too late to return them then, well, I’m sorry. You’ve been screwed.

Don’t waste your money

The Rola robot was fun until the app completely stopped responding when I tried taking it to another place. Now I can’t even sign into the app. No QR code comes up to re-register. Too many bugs and zero support.

Security concern

Just bought this and had it 5 days. The robot has been roaming around sometimes randomly and I thought it was my daughter at Uni. Just today it started and I could hear many male voices and am very worried it was hacked. ROLA need to really look at the security of online access to this…don’t buy until they respond to this security worry

The bot is not the problem (old)

So when I try to send the email to myself it says intelligent detection and then fails I try sending it over and over on different devices nothing works I am sure the bot works very well but I can’t even use the bot because the app doesn’t even let me use it. I hope this gets to the developers and so they fix this but until then I feel upset every time I see the bot on the charger doing nothing. Edit I got it working. It’s very fun to use.

爛透了

爛透了!買不到一個月,滾輪的履帶老是脫落,動都動不了;不僅如此,經常當機,畫面停滯不動,讓在遠端監控的我們心急如焚。Rola Mini 根本就是沒有經過產品測試還硬是上市銷售的詐騙商品,空有外表,使用之後遇到問題卻求助無門,誰買誰倒楣的昂貴垃圾!

EBO SE

EBO se is good but when I’m not home it just keeps lagging and I can’t even see what my beautiful cats are doing so I try switching into H264. I think it’s called it is really good anyway it returns to home really really good but it’s just a problem okay please reply anyone? Thank you bye with the new update. Please make it usable even without Wi-Fi and also make it compatible with Bluetooth as well. and also with the new update if you release one for EBO SE Make all 3 indicator stay solid and come on in every colour mode on the emotion indicator a.k.a. heart indicator and the camera icon missing when camera is not on

App does not work! Can’t even make an account

Just acquired and can not make an account on the app to get the thing working. The app is broke

Paperweight

Was quite fun at first and now suddenly I’ve been logged out of the app and when I try to log back in, it tells me that I need to read carefully the terms and conditions when I click on them to read them it still won’t let me login

App is not useable

I can’t even set up the robot to begin with because the app won’t go past the registration page. The robot itself looks cool but i guess I’ll never know. I’ve tried registering via phone number and email- neither work.
