BEWARE!! The company that makes this product must have discontinued it because the app you need to be able to code and play with the wand does not exist anymore. We followed the instructions in the box to a t, but could not use the app. The help website on the card inside does not exist and the help phone number is now a real estate company in Rhode Island.

The initial set up was a little finicky, but we finally had it up and running with success. My child wrote a few of their own codes and saved them. Fast forward to day 2, Artie could not connect to the site indicated in instructions. Which resulted in rebooting iPad and Artie in order for them to connect. All programs written & saved from prior day were gone. It does work once connected and did te K Wilson · Google
