You need to follow the instructions completely and listen to it when it says to download the file off google drive. ### 5/5 — Doownload the stuff *2020-10-05, version 1.01* For all those people it didnt work for you need to download the files from a computer onto tobbie ### 5/5 — Finally able to control My Tobbie II *2020-05-18, version 1.01* Im so glad they were able to port this program to iOS. Im finally able to control this robot without having to use the MakeCode app . Thank you so much!!! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2020-05-04* So fun and cool(download) this is real ### 4/5 — Works fine once set up properly *2023-07-01, version 1.2* This app will pair with the micro:bit device and control the robot but it needs extra configuration. You have to install the app-remote-control program on the micro:bit (available as a download from the Tobbie II manufacturer) as well as this app on your iOS device. It’s not made very clear here - hence the rating - but is worth the trouble to figure out! ### 3/5 — my reason’s of why *2025-12-22, version 1.2* This app does not work with the tobbie 2 no matter how you set it up, if you really want to get it to work you have to use the android way since the ios app does not support the tobbie 2, thank you for reading ### 3/5 — Good app but... *2021-08-07, version 1.2* The app keeps crashing and it is so annoying but everything works fine though --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
