Sphero Multi Drive
Free AppAbout Sphero Multi Drive
It’s easy to become an expert Sphero driver. Control Sphero with joystick tilt, or old-school remote controls. Create challenging courses, race against friends and family, or turn out the lights and enjoy some night racing. Step on the gas with boosts, beat your buddies racing, and earn yourself bragging rights by gaining achievements.
### IMPORTANT NOTE ###
We made this app available for users that are unable to download or have trouble with performance in the main Sphero app. If you are using and newer device and are looking for the main Sphero experience, check out the "Sphero" app.
### EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE ###
This app is the first of our apps to support multiple Spheros. (This is an experimental feature and may not work on all devices.) To connect multiple balls to your device, simply select each once from the connection screen. When you have all your balls connected, press the DONE button and start driving all of them at once. To aim each ball, you can use the regular two finger rotation gesture to aim each ball individually or you can use the group calibrate button and align each ball by hand.
You need to own a Sphero Robotic Ball in order to use this application! Visit gosphero.com to get Sphero, learn more from our tutorial videos, or become part of the Sphero community.

Enjoy your first drive! We’re certain you’ll have a ball.

Used this app as the suggested Sphero 2 app wouldn't carry out firmware update. Would get through "test" procedure OK but when you go to "drive" it would force close everytime. Used SPRK Lightning Lab app instead which worked fine but took a few hours trial and error to work this out. Really should be seamless as expect a lot of upset kids come Christmas Day!

I think this is a great app and it works fine but 1 problem I think you should only have to change the direction with only one finger...because it is kind of hard for me to use two fingers and get it perfect

Has much better control. If yours crashes then it's the phone, not the app. If it works fine with me then it should work fine with you. If not, then I suggest that you get your phone fixed.

This is much better than the central app! I wasn't able to connect to my sphero thru the other app, and I tried this so as a last resort before returning it... Plz fix the order app!

I loved this app for my Sphero, especially great for simply controlling it for my dog, but just updated my phone (OnePlus 2) to the latest version and now the app crashes upon launch. I'm hoping this will be fixed in a coming update

so much better than the full app. this one is fast, simple and does exactly what it should: drive. the full app is unusably slow, hard to control and full of useless gimmickry.

The only thing wrong is there is no battery meter. All the Parrot apps have it, why not you? I will bump this up to 5 stars if it is included.

Open sphero main app and itll update sphero to make this app work. You need to use a ICS (4.0.0) or later in order to update. Then it should work for gingerbread too.

If the app.is not working, it is probably just not turning on blootuth, or he can't connect to a blootuth device or something.

Why do I do it? Why do you do it? Why do they do it? They are ultimately and finally the ones in control. So who cares if it works or not?, not them, you bought it, you got it, so there. That's why
