My friend Teddy (US English) for Android
The information you put in does not connect with teddy at all and randomly crashes while trying to do anything with the app. There is no point in having this app might as well just push the button on Teddy's tummy.... Glad my son is under one and didn't have to be disappointed in this app not working properly.
Once you figurel out the app you can customize everything!!! I love it knows me my son's dad and many other family members by name and title (example I'm Mommy Miranda ) definitely worth the money
idk9 hat3 it worthless
My son loves teddy, app works great, no loss of connection. Great toy!!
Just bought the pink my friend Teddy. Thought it was a great idea as my daughter had Cora the cub and loved it, and this is like a slightly more grown up version. Only to download the app and not be able to input any personalized info? She is NOT happy is there a fix, or at least one in the near future?
I have read the negative reveiws. I decided to attempt to set it up anyhow. On my note 4 i was able to personalize it completely, including adding info about mom and dad without any issues. I connected and tested since it will be a christmas present. Very talkative and friendly little bear. I approve and will be giving it to my daughter.
I have same issue as everyone else! It wont let me enter info. It lets you click on the box and type it in but then there is no way to hit enter or next. Fix please ASAP!
This thing is so cheesy. I'm shocked to see people paid $30+ for it... Walmart has it for sale for $9 (I understand why now). My son likes it, but thinks it's weird it has a woman's voice.. Even the "male" bear. Rather than think it's an amazing toy, we mostly joke around with it. Connect Bluetooth, then find a fart sound joke app. Put Weirdo Bear on the couch when company is over and let the funniness begin. Seriously though, I'm glad I only spent $9 on this thing. A good idea in theory but it's a derp.
Well merry christmas ..now my child has the equivalent of an overpriced stuffie because the ap won't even open
When I get to the screen to fill in my son's information, I can't close the box and save what I typed.
I can't scan that's my problem
Just finished setting it up and my son is going to LOVE this bear. If you know how to follow simple directions, set up is a no brainer. It could really use an update so it can have a voice option to give it a boy voice and voice clarity could be better.
App won't maintain a Bluetooth connection for more than a couple of minutes, force closes when trying to get the bear to talk, and has other issues as well. It is about as poorly executed as the bear itself is.
But won't let me put in the child's info needed for setting.

Not compatible with my Galaxy 4. Won't open at all. If something requires an app. to work the thing then the manufacturer should make sure the have an app that is compatible with all or most phones. Very disappointed. At this point KY daughter is too you to notice and still lives her bear, but as a parent I would have loved it to do what it advertises.
I like the idea of adding things personally. Granted I know it is nothing new. This is great for children that have their own device that is compatible with this. However I would like to just add personal messages to this without having to keep my phone running. This app is glitching out and barley responsive when it is in use. Needs updated.
Cant enter information on the app on my LG Stylo. Box says its compatible with most phones but as you can see by these reviews its not. Pretty ridiculous that youre using the trusted teddy ruxbin name and selling crap.
It's an awesome idea.....if it worked. Paid $20+ for the bear and the app I downloaded will not allow me to add my daughter's info. So, I now have a pink teddy bear I can't use. Very disappointed!
I was able to download the app on my LG G5 but when I go to type in the name of my daughter or her favorite color it won't save the name or word in the box after I type it. When I hit the back button the name goes away so I am unable to personalize it.
Bought this for my daughter for Christmas, was excited to set it up only to find out the android app isn't working or doesn't support my device (LG G4) nothing worse than seeing a sad child on Christmas morning.
What a waste of money. The app won't work on my device because it does not conform to the size of my phone. Cannot see the accept or enter button for to enter my child's name. Great job developers. Will be sure to let everyone know not to waste their money on this toy.
I got the pink one for my daughter and I am very impressed with how much things it can do. Talk in Eng, Sp, or Fre, listens & respond to answers, record family members voices, play games, read stories, etc. My only two complaints is that the voice is quite robot sounding and that they blocked the word "Bible". If they didn't want to say any religious words I should have the option to record my voice saying the words I want her to learn and have the bear say. Strange since the apps comp name is Genesis Ind.
I have same issue as everyone else! It wont let me enter info. It lets you click on the box and type it in but then there is no way to hit enter or next. Fix please ASAP!
Worst thing ever pretty much a paper weight or a regular stuffed animal. I have a driod trubo I can install the app but can't enter my child's info. The only thing I can do is a birthday and how old she is because it's already there I can click on stuff but w.e $40 down the drain that I'll be getting back tomorrow. Not downing the company but violet is so much better!
The app will not let me input and edit info. There is no way for me to hit enter. Fix this and I will raise rating.
Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is not compatible. Never mind what the person before said. 1 star. Fix please! I'd like to actually use the toy the correct way..
Not sure why this is getting negative feedback. I just got a pink teddy for my daughter for Christmas. This app is incredibly easy to use and simple to sync to your device's Bluetooth. My daughter loves her bear and it knows all about her favorite things!
Some of the people complaining should buy new phones 2016 and higher lol. What you expect for 20.everything works as expected

App doesn't enter info. When selecting spot to enter info you type info and hit enter it just adds another line of writing. If you back out it does not save what you wrote. Impossible to enter any of requested info. Tried multiple phones
It doesn't let Mr type anythig about my child in except her birthday and age. The company is trying to so it's my phone. I should of never bought this.
I'm 33 Years old and can remember the original teddy ruxbin they had. It worked so good. I still have this toy and gave it to my daughter last year and she loves it, but just a hair out of date. So I bought this pink teddy for her for Christmas and it's junk. The quality for sound is horrible and this app doesn't do anything accept crap. I hate technology, I will never purchase anything that requires me to use my phone or her tablet to operate a toy. Don't buy this toy, or waist time on this application
I can't get it to know everything about my son on my Sony experia that's fully current. On the plus side it still does read stories and works as a blue tooth speaker to pay songs for him.
I had problems at first trying to edit the profile such as his name and favorite things but I downloaded a keyboard and it worked just fine
Well merry christmas ..now my child has the equivalent of an overpriced stuffie because the ap won't even open

No point in having the physical toy without the app. Doll is a boring bear.

My bear keeps making this clicking sound. My phone says it's connected but the bear isn't doing anything. I'm ready to throw the damn bear. So stupid. Messed with the bear and app for an hour. Damn clicking sound was pissing me off. Pissed off that it doesn't work. It doesn't even talk.
