Teddy Ruxpin

I love this app and the illiop himself! I found my Teddy at an antique shop in perfect working condition(he was missing the mask though) and immediately fell in love with him. I also have an original Teddy who doesn’t fully work(the eyes and mouth don’t move) but that’s pretty normal. I think it would also be great if we had Grubby. I know that there’s the hug and sing Grubby but I mean if we had an actual Grubby to go with Teddy. I don’t really know if they would connect by the port on Teddy’s back or if they would connect by Bluetooth but I still think it would be cool to have him. One thing that I’ve noticed is the fact that there’s only been one type of Grubby made. They didn’t make one for the Playskool Teddy, the Yes Teddy, the Backpack Teddy, or Baby Teddy either(although they planned to.) I know you guys don’t make the toys but I think Wicked Cool Toys should hear this. Thank you!

I paid for new stories. They wouldn’t play on Teddy. Every time I went to the Library on the app they show as locked. I would unlock them every time and tap sync to Teddy. Nothing. I contacted customer support and they told me I would have to download the new books to a computer then sync them to teddy via usb. Which is fine but this should be explained within the app because when I purchased the previous book bundle through the app, I did not have to do this. Very confusing and caused unnecessary frustration. It may say this in the manual but considering we’ve had teddy for almost 2 years now and no books have had to be loaded this way, most people won’t have the manual anymore. Also you can’t select a specific book in the app to play. My son has his favorites and it’s annoying to have to cycle through every story to try to get to the one he wants each time.

The stories work, but anyone who complains about them not working didn’t read the manual, you have to attach teddy to the computer and manually add the stories to his database to get them to work ( only needs to be done on new stories released after teddy hit the shelf) My 1 year old absolutely loves teddy, watches the story and watches teddy, tries to give teddy her pacifier.... super cute! The only issue I have is sometimes you have to turn teddy off and reset the app to get them to sync..... mild annoyance... and the fact that you can’t fast forward or rewind the stories is another annoyance.... but besides those two issues I am happy with him I had Teddy Ruxpin when I was a kid and I am so happy I can share him with my daughter
