iRobot
It was super fun when I got it but after a little bit the app would not work when I opened it it would stay frozen on the front page so I can’t use it any more but the robot will turn on and off.
App wont load need to reinstall
App is not loading and is stuck at home screen of irobot. Need to reinstall, happened 2nd time in a week
Good but no
App works when I delete/reinstall, but once I close it, it never opens and stuck on “iRobot” screen
Great app! Surprisingly no bugs yet.
I programmed 76 programs now! Ive been programming for 4 years and I love level 2 coding and its super easy to program! I haven’t found any bugs yet so they are great at finding and fixing bugs. Many other people say they have to re-install the app to open it again. Thats not true I can always open the app without
re-installing the app. Thanks for reading I hope you get the app!

Web browser version?
Is there a web browser version?
Response from developer
Yes! A version of the SAM Root app is available in the browser at https://root.samlabs.com/ (Please note: Web Bluetooth is required to connect to Root robots from the web app)
App has bug
Need to reinstall App in order to open again. Otherwise App is always stuck in first green iRobot loading screen.
App is not Great
I have to all the time I have to like I gotta download it on a separate device and then re-install the app stressed and you lose all your progress if you don’t have like a device that you can also have and yeah so I don’t know I have an I robotCoding robot and I really want it to work so I figured out I can do this but I don’t like this so I don’t recommend it if you have separate device so if you don’t have a separate device I don’t recommend it at all so I don’t know what’s wrong but what is anyway

App is buggy
The app won’t save programs and then will freeze requiring a reinstall which looses all progress.
App sometimes won’t open
Sometimes the app won’t open and I’m forced to reinstall it. Great robot and concept, but please fix your app. Also, why can’t I save my projects? People spend a lot of time coding and should be able to save projects to iCloud Drive or other cloud service. That’s a pretty basic requirement of any coding app. There is some type of strange sharing available, but you need a special code to retrieve. It is very strange the way this was implemented.

Pretty fun coding experience
Actually it’s pretty fun coding experience, especially if you are already a software developer and want to teach kids) For huge programs there’s also a version for PC, that runs on Chrome via JS BLE Api, it’s pretty awesome too, when web-page can communicate via Bluetooth.
Crashes the app and loses progress (iPad pro)
Was excited to try the new app and I think I can see the value of the new approach, but it’s hard to keep a kid engaged when the app crashes and progress made is lost). Not even saving a project saves progress in a multi-step task.
Needs improvement.

Cross generational coding tool!
What a well thought out and designed app - works for the whole household, enabling anyone to code a fun project no matter their previous experience. It’s nice to have this iOS option along with the browser based app! Thanks for making such an accessible app :)
