Description
This app is the “brain” of the robotic models you build with the Robotics: Smart Machines kits. The app uses the feedback from the models’ ultrasonic sensor together with programmed commands to control the models.
App Features
• Connect to your models via Bluetooth connection.
• Remote-control mode lets you directly control the models’ two motors forward and backward.
• Remote-control mode gives you a visual display of the object distance readings from the ultrasound sensor.
• Programming mode lets you script and save programs.
• Seven programs (Programs 1-7) are preloaded to work specifically with seven of the robot models in the “Robotics: Smart Machines” kit. Eight programs (Programs 9-16) are preloaded to work specifically with eight of the robot models in the “Robotics: Smart Machines - Rovers & Vehicles Edition” kit. Eight programs (Programs 17-24) are preloaded to work specifically with eight of the robot models in the “Robotics: Smart Machines - Tracks & Treads Edition” kit.
• A simple, visual programming language lets you program motors, sounds, and pauses.
• Different program segments can be set to run upon first run and then when the ultrasound sensor detects objects at different distances from the model.
• Use the 60-page or 64-page, step-by-step illustrated manual included in either kit to learn how to use all of the programming features.

1 ★ I cant do anything. First i went into the app, it was fine... But then everything stoped working, I tryed to click bluetooth but nothing happened. Then i clicked settings... NOTHING HAPPENED and then i tryed again, everything was fine,but then,the game broke i couldnt use anything in the settings and i was stuck there. Please get this fixed or everyone with android will get mad, so please just do it. Im uninstalling it untill you get this fixed.
4 ★ The app never crashed, but in the programming section you cannot use inputs or variables, you can only use functions.
1 ★ 99% of the time doesn't connect. Crashes every 5 minutes. Half of the times the motors don't work.
1 ★ There should be a disclaimer that this product is not good for android users. Luckily I have an apple product to try so I will update this review after I try that. On android, it is completely unresponsive and the app freezes for no reason. D-
2 ★ First my robot worked beautifuly. Then, the plastic cracked twice. Then, it wouldn't connect to Bluetooth. Then, when it started working again, the motors would not work, and the app froze. I don't know what to say anymore.
1 ★ It takes 10-15 minutes to connect via bluetooth, even on my Galaxy S9. You can imagine how frustrated this makes my 11 year old. This needs to be fixed ASAP considering you can't do anything with the robotics kit without the app.
3 ★ The bluetooth wont connect unless its an iphone. I tried with an android and an ipad and it didnt connect. But when it connects its pretty cool
1 ★ Unable to connect through Bluetooth. Tried 2 phones and same result. Distance from phone to device is inches just stating that to rule out distance being the issue. Disappointed and expect better from Thames Kronos.
2 ★ Doesn't connect. Used 3 devices. Saw a YouTube review prior to use, seems alright but just a waste of time and money during to this app/toy won't connect.
2 ★ Low power and takes 1 hour to connect to bluetooth but when it does it is ok i guess it cant move very well and doesnt move at all on carpet or grass and barly any actions besides just move and i dont think the robot is worth the high price not good at all
1 ★ well it was fun building but it wouldnt connect with my phone (running android 7.0) it required a phone to at least be 4.4, so why wont it connect
1 ★ The app seems to be impossible to connect to bluetooth. I want to like it, however if the app doesnt work the whole thing is useless.
4 ★ it wouldnt connect for my packard bell tablet, even though my bluetooth is version is 7.0, but i used my brothers iphone, and the remote control mode is awesome so maybe android just plain out sucks
1 ★ Worse Christmas present for my older two boys, ever. We could have gotten more use out of a lump of coal. When they got it in December it would only connect intermittently, but now not at all.
1 ★ This app would not work on 2 devices running Android 4.4. Great idea, I guess, but no fun if you can't actually use it.
