If I could return it to get my money back I would ### 3/5 — Good hardware but software needs an overhaul *2021-09-19, version 2.4* This toy is worth the money and does keep my dog highly entertained and distracted. But the app itself is poorly designed and needs a lot of work. 1. On my iPhone 8, buttons near the top, including settings, cannot be pressed as they are slightly offscreen. 2. Most of the actions in drive mode don’t quite work as advertised, and the bone seems in capable of actually moving forward in a straight line. 3. I really want the interactive mode to keep my dog distracted, but it doesn’t. This mode needs to be completely replaced IMO. The bone is too easily obtained in this mode and often goes silent for long periods of time. I find that the only way to really get it to do what I want is just to go back to manual mode and keep hitting the “quick jump” action over and over the moment my dog starts to ignore it. So I really just want the interactive mode to do this at random intervals, or better yet, give me control over which actions it does when in this automated interactive mode. 4. The bone itself should be producing sounds to attract the dog’s attention, but instead, the app itself does this… Which is annoying. In the next version there should be some sort of built-in speaker with sounds that dogs like, and an option in the app to set the volume or turn it off. ### 3/5 — Needs update for iPhone 12 *2021-07-04, version 2.4* Cannot access settings with small bezel phone ### 4/5 — Mostly great, just one issue *2020-06-22, version 2.4* This app is great for managing the Wickedbone. The one problem is that the app is still made for iPhones with large bezels. It’s hard to hit the settings or disconnect buttons if you have an iPhone with small bezels. ### 3/5 — iPhone sehr heiß *2020-04-02, version 2.4* Bei der Nutzung wird das IPhone sehr heiß. Also voll Ausgelastet. Spielzeug selber tut was es soll. ### 2/5 — 왜연결이 안되냐구요 *2020-02-29, version 2.4* 그리고 한국에 제품 팔았으면 한국어로 변경 할 수있게 하던가 존나어렵네요ㅡㅡ ### 4/5 — Update causes app to rash. *2019-09-25, version 2.3* This is a great toy. The only problem is that I updated my phone yesterday, and now the app crashed every time I try to pair it with the bone. Please fix this ASAP. ### 4/5 — Works well, labels not descriptive *2018-12-07, version 1.6* The app connects well to the WickedBone, but the labels for the functions do not describe the resulting actions very well. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Won’t connect *2026-07-17, version 3.6* Waste of $$ ### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect. *2026-06-28, version 3.6* I have spent hours trying to connect the wicked bone to the app but it doesn’t work. I’ve followed all the instructions, but nothing. Reading the comments here and on many websites, it’s a common issue that has not been solved for many years. I feel scammed! ### 1/5 — “Too many problems” *2025-08-16, version 3.6* It breaks very easily, IVE had atleast 10 of these toys and they all have broke. Not to mention it breaks quickly, it disconnects after seconds of playing with it. Would not recommend. 😬😬😬 ### 1/5 — CCP spyware, download at your own risk *2024-12-15, version 3.6* App beams your info back to CCP headquarters. Do not download if you work for the US govt ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-12-03, version 2.4* Not connecting, tried all phones at home. Basically a scam ### 1/5 — Wicked Ball letdown *2020-10-05, version 2.4* Does nothing with the cheerble wicked ball. Big disappointment ### 1/5 — Not connecting *2020-06-12, version 2.4* Brand new $179 and doesn’t even connect on Bluetooth which is the only way to use it. Been trying all evening and was so excited to play with my doggo. Nice idea but app doesn’t connect therefore product doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — 연결이 안되냐고요 *2020-03-11, version 2.4* 연결안됨니다..쓰레기에요 ### 1/5 — Bluetooth connection crashes app *2019-09-26, version 2.3* I’ve re-downloaded the app several times but since upgrading to ios 13 the app is unable to connect with the bone without the app crashing ### 1/5 — Crash *2019-09-22, version 2.3* Crashing when trying to connect. Not able to use the product. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good product *2023-03-16, version 2.5* My dog absolutely loves this toy, no trouble setting it up works great ### 5/5 — My dog is in love!!! *2022-10-27, version 2.4* my dog litterally wants to do everything with it at this point ### 5/5 — My dog loves Wickedbone! *2021-02-14, version 2.4* This app does a great job interacting with the toy. I just noticed the settings have become more customizable since the last time we played with it! I’m happy that I’m able to make the toy more active when it’s in interactive more now. ### 5/5 — 최곱니다~ *2020-09-04, version 2.4* Interative 푹 빠져서 갖고 놀다가 Drive 한번씩 해주면 엄청 신나하네요ㅋ 진짜 잘 만들었네요 Interactive 시간만 길면 정말 좋을텐데 그게 짧아서 좀 아쉽네요 ### 5/5 — Add programmability *2020-02-22, version 2.4* Let users program how it will behave in the automatic interactive mode. For example, let us set how many seconds of inactivity will make the toy spin around to get the dog’s attention back. Or program it to run away from the dog like a mouse being chased. And the possibilities will be endless if you allow for that functionality. This will make the product more dynamic and smart. You could provide some sample programs, and let us write custom ones too. I hope you guys consider this or someone might make something similar with this functionality and beat you to the punch! Hope to hear back from you. ### 5/5 — My shi tzus love this 🐶 *2019-07-17, version 2.3* Their new favorite toy 👍🏼 ### 5/5 — Slow approach! *2019-05-07, version 2.2* At first, Our energetic Vizsla pupper was scared and ignired it, Until... I started speeding with it, Vizslas? Are hunting dogs so she started zooming after it! If it’s on interactive mode she will treat it like a piece of dust, For dogs on the Higher Energy setting can you make it more zoomy? ### 5/5 — Great toy! *2019-03-11, version 2.0* A must toy for a brainy dog. We have a Boston Terrier who destroys a new toy within minutes and then loses interest because it’s “dead”. This however, holds up to intense chewing and weeks after receiving this he is thrilled to play with it. He knows where we recharge it and will stand on the furniture barking/demanding for this bone. He loves playing with a toy that interacts with him. Order one today! You won’t be disappointed. ### 4/5 — Fun Toy for the Puppy, So Far *2023-10-09, version 2.6* My pup interacts with the toy and we have fun driving it. Haven’t done a lot with it set to interactive (automatic). One goofy thing happening to me is that if the toy is connected, and I go out of range with the phone, I have to recharge it fully in order to connect. Not only that, but once it’s fully charged, it doesn’t let me connect. I have to immediately barge it again before I connect. That is, I Chevy it to where the LEDs are green, then pull the charger, immediately plug the charger back in, and the LED’s are yellow again. After a couple of minutes they go green again, and then I can connect. I learned this and just do it. Goofy. ### 4/5 — On connecting *2021-11-30, version 2.4* Make sure you disconnect the usb cable before trying to connect with the app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
