RoboRemote for Android
Its not working with my note 4 and the store won't give me a refund.
I was scared it wouldnt work reading all these comments.. but I read the INSTRUCTIONS and IT WORKS PERFECTLY!
Was trying it from 8 feet away and it didn't work until I realised the plug in needs to have the infra red bulb pointed directly at the robot, then it worked perfectly! Good job
Won't let me go to the app
I have a galaxy S5 with ir blaster, it works with Aircondioners, TVs, receivers anything that requires ir remote it works fine with. Im no developer but would be nice if this app could be tweaked to work with devices that already have ir transmitters built in.
It doesn't work on my Samsung s4 download the app while plug-in still doesn't work just makes 3 beeps while plugged in then unplug it off my phone still don't work the app is crap. Well the app is free no complaint on that I'll give it one star?? the person who made the app should quit his job making it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We just got a robome for my brother and my mom tried to download the app on her ipod touch and it didnt work. So i downloaded the app on my phone and tried it out and it didnt work. My whole family has android phones and only my mom has an apple device. Please make it work on all devices including android! Will rate 5 stars if it works
I have a MiP, but when I select MiP, it tells me to get MiP and directs me to the most annoying page ever. I will rate better if you fix this or give me advice that works. I heard that other people couldn't use MiP either. ITS SUPA ANNOYING!!!:'(
It worked great with my old robosapien. Also, people need to pay attention! Does it say it works with Mip? No it doesnt! This app was made long before mip was even thought of.
Okay, so I'm really mad right now. Im trying to take my MiP to school to show to my friends. Since my mom won't let me take my iPad to school, and only got me a tablet to take to school I thought this app would let me control the MiP since the "MiP App" isn't compatible with my tablet. But NO, this dumb app only leads you to the website ABOUT IT. Waste of download, do NOT get this if you have a MiP and want to control it from here.
Simply doesn't work. Just keeps directing me to a website telling me where I can buy there products!
I was scared it wouldnt work reading all these comments.. but I read the INSTRUCTIONS and IT WORKS PERFECTLY!
Love the robot its so cute but everything else as far as this app goes. Hate it
You said any android device... my sons galaxy tablet which is up to date, does not work!!?? Bull$4!t!
Look at the pics of the robots what do u see no MIP so u can use all of the other robots just not MIP so its not a bad app u need the MIP app to play with your MIP
The app does not work no matter what you try. I have tried to download with it plugged in and without and nothing works. When plugged it, it just makes loud beeps when you push a direction on the app. Worst POS I have seen in a long time.
If u can't make it work properly, dont fool people to download it.
Download on HTC1. Not working beeps 3 time after command when I shut down attaching turning on bot and lunching app
Will not work for Robo Me at all, app does not work whatsoever. I suggest the company issue an apology and refund money spent on this toy
Now I don't need to put batteries in all my remotes! However, this app has some problems. A lot of Robosapien's commands are missing. Also, all the robots' program modes are missing! The MiP icon should be removed because it's just a link to the app store. If these were fixed in an update, I would give it 5 stars. would like support for ALL the WowWee Robotics, but I understand if they need to make a second Dongle. Despite these problems, I would recommend getting a WowWee Robot!
I only bought a roboraptor not long ago. I bought it because I wanted to use an app and it said it worked with the app. I didn't want to take the huge chunky remote with me that seems to work every now and then also.
We need MIP on it plz
It doesn't work for the new mip it just takes you to some website for some reason
Made me buy a $40 accessory that's useless now, it doesn't work, please fix this. Ya know, within a year... This means in 2015
Its not working with my note 4 and the store won't give me a refund.
Came with my robosapien X . Does NOT work. Promised update. We'll see.
This doesn't work with the ROBOSAPIEN X. Please fix.
Or with my galaxy s5
My kid got a MiP for Christmas. I got it partially because he could use it with a little Samsung tablet he got from a relative. The tablet is newish and it is made for kids but the MiP app does notwork with it. You would think they would at least let you use the basic control, but no, the stupid company forces you to a website to download the MiP app that is incompatable with kids tablets. PLEASE FIX THIS!
Sad app. Developers shouldn't say it's functional on Google play, because it does not work with Evo LTE. glad we have an iPhone because app works fine there. Please fix this awful android app or remove from mip documentation-not fair that App store is light years better.
I tried the current version (June 24, 2014) on my OnePlus One, and on a Nook HD and neither of them were able to control my Robosapien using the roboremote dongle plugged into the head phone jack. If this only works on specific devices, the app developer really needs to state this clearly. I bought this dongle to control my robosapien as it looked like it would be easier to program in programmed movements than with using the remote, but now I feel like I was duped into buying a worthless product. And don't tell me to get a Apple device, I can't stand Iphones or Ipads.
I have the RoboSapien and to use the app, you'll need the accessory attachment w/3.5 mm jack included in the package. The infrared for the accessory is ON THE TOP OF THE HEAD and NOT the eyes that light up!!! So make sure the top of the head is pointing to the robot's eyes/head! I hope this helps others! Works on v4.4.2 or below, not on v5.0. I rated this app a 2 for the lack of direction in the app description of how to use it properly and no answers regarding this in the manual or support site!!!
Test the IR output: most cell phone camera's can see IR. Take your cell, put it in video camera mode and point it at the business end of your robo remote. Press a button on the robo remote. You will see light emanating from your remote when viewing through your cell. If you can see the light, then you can test the Robo dongle in the same fashion (using a second cell phone). If you do not see a light coming out of the robo IR dongle, then it isn't sending a signal. my son's robosapien X dongle doesn't work.
3 different android tablet but this posh app isn't designed for them
I've been messing with this for an hour. I have an Android that's only 4 months old and I followed ever bit of instructions. If I can find my receipt I'm taking this POS back!
It force close when I chose my robot MIP but I would like to install the MIP APP but it isn't compatible in my tablet I have the android tablet AT105 version 4.0.4 you can let me install it please
I try to use it for my mip but it keeps bringing me to this stupid website! Pleeease fix this!
Says on mips box he can be run from android. Clearly he cant. He isnt even on apps list of supported products. So nice christmas disater thanks. Thanks for not letting iphone 4 work or ipad 2. The hardware could have easily run this simple app. Woowee needs new developers that can deliver.
Bought two for my boys and does not work with samsung tab 3. Ruined our Christmas gift.

I brought one of their robots my son. He likes but the toy or app doesn't work as smoothly as advertised. Its overly ambitious and they use dates technology. Why us IR? The remote has to be pointed directly at the robots head or it won't work.
