Wonder makes robotics as delightful as finger painting. With a picture-based coding language and guided challenges, Wonder lets kids ages 8 and up explore robotics on their own – and have a blast doing it. A FRESH NEW LOOK The redesigned main menu puts everything one tap away: - Scroll Quest – multiple guided coding adventures, from first steps to tricky puzzles - Free Play – an open coding canvas for your own inventions CODING ADVENTURES WITH DASH Travel through the African Grasslands, the Arctic Wilderness and even Outer Space to uncover new ideas for your robot. Transform Dash into a ferocious lion, dodge asteroids together, play a game of Marco Polo, and much more. Every challenge introduces a new coding concept – sequences, events, loops, conditions and variables – through play. CREATE YOUR OWN INVENTIONS When you're ready, jump into Free Play and build anything you can imagine. Once your program is finished, transfer it to Dash – the next time you turn Dash on, it runs your code without being connected to an iPhone or iPad. HOW TO GET STARTED 1. Turn on Dash and enable Bluetooth on your iPhone or iPad. 2. Open Wonder and connect to Dash from the main menu. 3. Update your robot when prompted. The update brings new sounds, personality and abilities and may take up to 10 minutes. 4. Start with Challenges to learn the basics, then explore Free Play.

One challenge a day. That is the whole ask. Arena is not a study app. It is how you find out whether your studying worked. Every answer earns XP toward your level, and every topic you play becomes a skill with its own tier, so over time you build a profile of what you actually know. The way a game shows a character's stats, except the character is you. HOW A CHALLENGE WORKS A card shows a category, a topic, and how hard the question is. Double-tap to open it: usually four options, one guess, no hints. Then you see the correct answer, a short explanation, the XP it earned, and the ideas your answer moved. IT ADAPTS TO YOU The feed picks what to show you next from how you have been doing, drawing on every level from beginner to specialist. Questions you answer come back later on an FSRS schedule, the same spaced-repetition algorithm Anki uses, timed to just before you would have forgotten them. EVERY TOPIC, ITS OWN TIER Questions come from 22 categories: Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Medicine and Health, Mathematics, Technology, Engineering, History, Geography, Law and Government, Business and Economics, Psychology and Social Sciences, Philosophy and Religion, Language and Linguistics, Literature, Arts, Film and TV, Music, Gaming, Sports, Food and Drink, Lifestyle and Culture, General Knowledge. Inside them, each topic you play is a skill with a tier from Bronze to Diamond. It rises as you answer well and can slip when you miss or let it fade. Strength in one topic does not cover for weakness in another. GUILDS Create a guild, share the code, and everyone who joins gets a private leaderboard that compares streaks, levels and skill tiers. FREE, AND MEMBERSHIP Arena is free, with a daily limit on challenges. Membership removes the daily limit and gives you a permanent member number based on when you joined. USD 5.99 per month or USD 39.99 per year. It renews automatically until you cancel, and you can cancel anytime in your store's subscription settings.
