About this app

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

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!!!

App is horseshit & so is Sphero! If you no longer have the rights to the legacy droids you made an enormous profit from them who does? A lot of people payed a lot of money for your product with the guarantee of app compatibility. Negative 5 star rating overall!

Good. However of late I can't connect to the original ollie even on a full charge and while the charging cord is connected. Opened it up and there aren't any broken connections. 29-07-22 shows how badly the testing scenarios have been written. I noticed that you have to click on the Bluetooth device name and then it connects. As far as the battery life is concerned it may have reduced but isn't near its end. Such sturdy toys shouldn't be just disposed. Don't go the Apple way.
