About this app

Sphero Edu is your hub to create, contribute, and learn with Sphero robots. Go beyond code by incorporating unique STEAM lessons to complete with your bot.

Designed for learner progression, Sphero Edu beginners can give robots commands by drawing a path in the app for their robot to follow. Intermediate coders can use Scratch blocks to learn more advanced logic, while pros can use text programming and write their own JavaScript.

Sphero Edu is built for makers, learners, educators, and parents. The interactive platform allows you to keep track of your class or group from one easy place. Anyone can save their progress, jump from device to device, and continue the discovery from anywhere. Preparing for the future has never been so fun.

Ratings and reviews

It works perfectly on my Samsung Galaxy 9+. I have downloaded the app and it connects to my bluetooth, but it will not connect to the app. What am I doing wrong? other then that I would give it a Rating of 5. After playing with it for 3 days it finally connected to my surface pro 6. I think it was the bluetooth after I switched it on then off. restarted the surface it started working. Thanks!!!

while I'm glad I can connect my ollie through an up to date app there's a major feature missing and thats the trick board. beyond the fun you can have with it there was a very necessary mode to get the robot unstuck from somewhere without having to pick it up and that's the ability to make the body roll very fast. it makes the bot hop up and out of areas in terrain where it's stuck and you can keep going but through this app that functionality is lost. I have to continue to use the ollie app

The issue I had previously about the overly sensitive UI seems to have been fixed. now my only problem is that i can't login anymore. I use the "Sign in with Google" button and it always returns with the message "ERROR your session has expired. Please sign in again to continue." I don't use the comnunity feature often, but I can't access it without signing in.
