ABOUT ROBOTICS: SMART MACHINES - HOVERBOTS
The HoverBots kit allows you to build and program six amazing robots that balance on two wheels! With this app installed on a supported Bluetooth-enabled device, you can remotely control, program, and adjust the balance settings of your robots.
HOW TO USE:
Position the balancing robot model with its wheels on a smooth floor in an open area.
Turn on the switch and hold the model upright with its weight on the floor until you feel its motors turning. Then the model will start balancing on its own.
Open the app on your device.
Establish a Bluetooth connection between the app and the robotic base unit.
There are three different modes: Remote Control, Balance Settings, and Programming. Refer to the product manual for more details.

I could not connect via bluetooth but found a forum post that explained it. 1) Do not pair using the usual Android settings functionality. Only use the app. 2) For some reason, I had to turn on location/GPS first in order to connect. After this, I was able to fully connect and my son is having a blast. I'm not sure why these steps were omitted from the otherwise impressive documentation (at least for a toy), but the product is quite impressive after getting beyond this initial hurdle with Bluetooth connection issues.

Nothing worked. My son received a bot for Christmas and I built it. Once I turned it on, however, the app refused to show anything. Nothing registered. I am pretty good with technology, having worked in the field, and even I can't figure it out. Not terribly impressed with this product.

It's as good as you can get for a control app, but the robot however is amazing, the controls are great and I feel they are sturdy and work great! I have the waiter bot equipped right now! It's really good!
