Robobloq

Ok, so I bought this product about 2 years ago, and I absolutely loved it! It was so cool, and I was interested in programming and I already do C++, so I’m like “this will be a good product.” And it was. I even bought Q-Tronics A to go with it, and it was a great product. Then why did I give it 1 star? Well, I eventually also bought Q-Tronics B, and before I could even use the Q-Tronics B sensors, it said that my software needed an update. So I connected it to my computer via the USB cable that came with it, and what do you know! After this update, my console won’t connect anymore, to PC or i-Phone! It turns on, blinks, no beeping like before, and then it shuts off! I’ve tried everything to fix it, but I guess there is no fix. I’m disappointed. I don’t like to say it, but I would not recommend this product. In the end, it’s a waste of money. Spend your money on Cozmo instead. He works great, and has lists and custom variables. Plus he requires no assembly or extra products! He’s much more fun!

How often do you update it?

Don’t give this to your kids. They’ll get frustrated with buggy programmable interface which will make them swear off programming forever. It’s too frustrating. I’m a software developer with fifteen years experience and I’m very surprised how poor this app is for creating the simplest program.
