Should improve for star-wars droids

Well the company deleted the app for BB-8 from store but never improve on this app. Very bad service after sell 😡

Does still work with BB8

Needs to connect using the ‘show other robots button’ at the bottom. Kudos to these guys for continuing to support what is arguably Disney’s responsibility.

Bb-8

Sphero edu is very very bad no good because I tried connect to bb8 and no work long time and super bad for Sphero edu!!

Does not work on IOS 26.4

Opens and shuts down immediately.

I love it

This is just a great app and I am going into big projects with my bolt plus. anyways, it’s super fun to!

Great app!

No problems with this app at all. It is amazing! I have a Sphero BOLT and the programs are easy and fun. Here is an idea for a block for block programs I had in mind: Spin 0 times a second for 0 sec. This is where a robot will spin in a circle. An example for this in a program is: Spin 2 times a second for 5 sec. Amazing app overall!!

10/10 drawing software

It was very fun drawing hatsune miku on this program! Although I would like you to add maybe a zoom option and better colour wheel.

All around amazing

It is realy good anywhere I canals figured out that you put in the numbers address not the gmail one.the sphero bolt plus is amazing everywhere I love running it at the skate park and getting my cat to chase it the only problem is when I go to the skate park I have to tether of my dads phone but otherwise it is perfect

Ideas for 3 new block types

This is an amazing app for kids to learn programming. Here are some concepts for blocks that would be nice to have in the block programming mode:

1. Run (code) and (code) together. This is a control block with 2 spaces for programs, like how the if-then-else block is shaped. This block would run both of the programs at the same time, instead of one after the other like in normal program structure. For example, "run (heading 90°) and (main LED red) together. would make the bot turn 90° and red simultaneously.

2. Color of pixel at (x,y). Sensor block for BOLT and BOLT+ that acts as whatever color the matrix pixel at that coordinate is. For example, if the (5,2) pixel is green, then “color of pixel at (5,2)” would output green.

3. if (boolean) then (number) else (number). Sensor block that acts as the first number if the boolean is true, and as the second if it’s false. Basically just a piecewise function.

Also, PLEASE add the drive motion block to all other bots.

Doesn’t open

Can’t get the app to open.

Love ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is app is so fun I can use him until his battery dies with no disconnect! You can make so many programs, take numerous coding courses and if you want to drive it around you can do that too overall this app is amazing but I wish it had support for indi.

Crashes immediately

Can’t even load the app because it immediately crashes.

Great app!

I got this after hearing about these and getting one from my local library, I have been soo into Sphero edu after that! 5 stars

Horrible

Not good , our family has got the bb-8 and 9. Today I decided to play with them because I was bored , bearing in mind when my friends came over we’d always play with them , as now I decided to , the app is no longer on the App Store and I’m not doing coding to use my droid , and they aren’t even compatible which makes is ten times worse , it’s just lazy at the fact people have had so much fun with these are they decided to take it off , horrible, now they are just for decoration which is nice but , I really wanted to use them but now I can’t.

Works with BB-8

While I’m upset that the BB-8 app is gone, my Sphero BB-8 still works with this. BB-8 can’t wander or make as many of the weird noises anymore, but this app ensures that he still has some functionality. Would be cool if they could incorporate some of those features back into this app (though I’m not sure how many BB-8s are still rolling around).
