4 ★ This is closer to the app that wonderworkshop should have produced. An option to step through code line by line would be really nice as would and/or operators.
3 ★ This looks like a great app allowing for more control with other programming blocks however I am having trouble getting it to connect with the iPad, its sees the robot but commands are not getting to it, is there an update?
4 ★ Super-fast support ! Updates app very fast - I am looking forward to start programming. old review: Can't find the "when" function (button pushed or similar). Please update or provide help section!
5 ★ The Official Application Blocky from WonderWorkshop simply cannot be installed in my Android 5.0.1 Nexus 4. But this app here works beautifully! Connects to the robots, allows me to program them. With this app I now have robots. Before, all I had was a remote control toy. Perfect! An amazing win from the developer community! Thanks!
5 ★ The app from Wonder Workshop does not work very well and crashes all the time. Therefore this app is a better alternative and it is even more responsive, pretty fast and has more features - i.e. save your programs. Good work
5 ★ The app works well on my Samsung Galaxy S4 smart phone. Connects easily, doesn't crash, and programs well. At last, my kids are happily learning to program the robots! As a Kickstarter funder, I thought "Android support" was going to mean far more than just a few devices. None of my kids' tablets nor my smartphone made WW's cut. After months of waiting for WW to port Blockly to Android, I read lately they deem smart phones' screens "too small" for implementing Blockly and don't plan to port it. What a huge disappointment! I hope your app encourages them to reverse that decision. Blocklify works just fine on the screen of my Galaxy S4. Sure, it's not as spacious as a tablet, but the screen scrolls both ways, and my kids (ages 10, 6, and 3) have zero trouble manipulating the blockly pieces in that space while making longer programs. Great work! This early version of Blocklify lacks motor controls, and a future version with them would be awesome. WW is only sharing the API with a closed group of alpha testers presently. When they shift into open beta testing, developers should have access to the API. Keep up the great work.
4 ★ So much to like about thus app so far - easily connects, stable connection, save and load functions, run from device without pressing a button on the robot, additional commands ...several things aren't working yet like Drive commands, and I couldn't get variables to do anything, but when it's built this will be the Dash and Dot app you really want.
5 ★ Simply just works. Although you can't move dot, you can do more sophisticated code compared to original Blockly app.
5 ★ Supports more devices than any of the ww apps. Looking forward to more functionality but very pleased so far
5 ★ Man, you have saved my dash and dot from being returned to Wonder workshop...this works! Love it.
5 ★ Drive not working in moto x
5 ★ Just got a dash & dot. Official apps are nice but a little childish and too guided. This works just as well, if not better. (Tested on Samsung Note 4)
1 ★ Not supported with nexus 10
1 ★ Waste of time
