User reviews

Software is terrible

Looking at the reviews from 2,3,4,6 yrs ago don’t you think they would have enough passion to fix the software. I’ve tried several times to download new images, the support email address is invalid and the link in the app description is broken.

App/Connectivity

Device is great but the app and how it connects needs a better interface and ease of use to connect.

Worst app ever!

Connects to my table MAYBE 1 in 10 attempts. When it does, it’s fine but never finds my table. I’ve had my table for two years. Been like this from go.

Terrible

The app doesn’t connect with the table, rendering a very expensive table completely useless. I’ve updated the app, reset the table. Nothing works. Don’t waste your money.

Fantastic device and app is fine

I haven’t rated anything on the app store before but am surprised by the relatively low ratings. I have had the large table since the Kickstarter many years ago and it still works fantastically well. Also, they update the app with issues when they arise, and new features. When things go wrong with my table, they ship me new parts…. and most importantly, there is nothing in the world like this table.

Is this iPhone application as smooth as Spotify or Apple Music or Bank Of America? No. But who cares if it’s slick. It does the job of loading images you want and setting the brightness of the light and the speed of the ball and everything else you need to run this thing. You should not be in the app very much because the app is only meant to keep the table running how you wanted to run. It is a simple but powerful app, and it works very well.

I cannot recommend this company and this table enough. They do a fantastic job and if I ever go to Minneapolis and visit them I’m going to tell them what a great job they’re doing.
