I got so mad because I don’t have the pieces I need for it and now I would have to buy the Lego spike thing and yeah, I would be so mad because of this now now I have I have to just stick with it and wait until my birthday to get it. but there is a lot of stuff on the Internet that breaks the flaws of this so that it is compatible, which is the only good thing ### 3/5 — Malfunction? *2026-01-22, version 3.6.0* My robot was able to move and turn perfectly well when I first started coding, now it wont even move forward. No matter what code i try, or which parts i replace, or how much i charge it. My code doesn’t work. Although it is a nice app overall ### 5/5 — It’s awesome! *2026-01-05, version 3.6.0* It is a great app. I would recommend it to anyone who likes LEGOS. but you need the specific brand. And you need the app to build the items that you can build. It is an amazing app!🤩 ### 5/5 — The best *2026-01-01, version 3.6.0* Best app to have fun and build in a good way ### 5/5 — Intro to spike prime *2025-12-25, version 3.6.0* Excellent tutorials and guidance for the basics, well done Lego Education ### 4/5 — Spike *2025-12-23, version 3.6.0* I love it I just got it for my birthday but I kept trying to load the competion ready lesson and it was at 100percent downloaded but nothing happened and I kept trying multiply things EVEN CHATGPT AND NOTHING WORKED SO YEAH ### 2/5 — It says that it is newest model even though it is not *2025-12-11, version 3.6.0* I tried every thing google suggested but nothing works ### 5/5 — I like spike *2025-11-23, version 3.5.1* Dhsafgfhiqojjvhfjblfwjkbljfobfljfbbjkjbgj;hvgfj ### 5/5 — Hello *2025-11-20, version 3.5.1* İ like tenis spike ### 4/5 — Yyyy *2025-10-12, version 3.5.1* Ydfhhguytt I love this so much I love it so much I love the way you draw it and the way you do it ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-10-07, version 3.5.1* My son loves this it has been the most fun thing he has played with is a long time. ### 5/5 — Lego spike *2025-09-29, version 3.5.1* Its a grate easy app to use ### 4/5 — Can’t connect to Bluetooth *2025-09-29, version 3.5.1* Such a pain…. ### 5/5 — ej *2025-09-27, version 3.5.1* nrlk1 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Oh my pain. *2026-04-06, version 3.6.0* Why does the app take so long to load a project with like 6 code blocks? Then after it says “nO sPiKe aPp rUnIng” like bro sybau. This app is educational not crashcational. Fix your loading and Bluetooth. ### 1/5 — I want legacy back *2026-01-14, version 3.6.0* So like I heard about this iPad tilt thingy and when I programmed my brick sorter it was blasting the bricks to the wrong socket ### 1/5 — Not better then ev3 software *2025-06-05, version 3.5* It lags a lot. Half of our time in the stem class was wasted just waiting for it to start ### 1/5 — 👏😑 *2025-04-01, version 3.4.7* If you don’t use it for a long period like weeks or months it will say “this app no longer continues”!(wow nice job 😑). ### 1/5 — LEGO money vs actually caring *2025-02-10, version 3.4.5* This coding app is significantly restricted because LEGO doesn’t in fact care about the learning process but rather is more focused on profits. The Spike Prime hub is identical to the Inventor hub yet they throttle the features down because of financial implications. Please bring hub-to-hub control, RC features, and just merge the inventor app into one… instead of choosing between Prime or Essentials, add in Inventor as a third option. Hashtag, a very frustrated classroom teacher with many hubs! ### 1/5 — Yes it’s for kids, but that doesn’t excuse the terrible UX *2024-12-29, version 3.4.5* Missing basic quality of life functionality like deleting multiple blocks at the same time. That is this app in a microcosm, doing anything beyond simple toy projects is unnecessarily painful because the developers are too lazy to implement basic functionality. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on an IPad *2024-11-19, version 3.4.5* Enough said! I can download the Spike App to my iPad and it is listed as compatible but only works the first time then you just get a blank screen with no information stating that it is incompatible! ### 1/5 — Good but not good enough please answer *2024-05-15, version 3.4.3* It is hard to get in to the game please help ### 1/5 — MAD KAREN *2024-05-06, version 3.4.3* IDK I DONT LIKE IT I WANNA SPEAK TO THE MANEGER NOT RESPECTFULLY KAREN ### 1/5 — PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW *2024-03-05* This app is inconvenient and rarely gets updates. My two kids (boy & girl), love engineering and coding. But both me AND my kids think this app is inconvenient?! This is not right! Take this review as a WARNING if you are even considering buying this app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Obsessed *2026-08-03, version 3.6.1* Best Lego app ever ### 5/5 — Lego!
