LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Inventor for Negative User Reviews

This app doesn't load on my macIt just stuck at the init mindstorm screen without loading anything or continue to anything. Also other actions like new project, or open... won't start anything and just remain stucking at the loading screen.Version: 1.0.3

What about the EV3?What I want to know is there an actual way to code the ev3 off my phone? Otherwise I think this app is a bit of a scam, because you would need the newer version of the robot to actually code anything. Please make it so I can code the ev3 off my phone..Version: 10.5.0

The txt is tiny!!I really want to enjoy this app but I can’t seem to adjust the txt size anywhere..Version: 10.3.1

Won’t work on other MINDSTORMSIt doesn’t work on nxt so I can’t program it..Version: 10.5.0

I’m on an iPhone and it won’t let me connectIt’s not letting me connect to the hub I tried videos need it fixed if possible. Also fallowed all steps to connect via Bluetooth because it’s on phone not laptop so if you can fix the Bluetooth option on iPhone that would be awesome..Version: 10.3.1

Takes so long to workGood programming though..Version: 10.5.0

How to startI started but I do not now how to code so 3 of 5.Version: 10.3.0

Really cool app!My hub doesn’t disconnect, and everything runs smoothly. I already made all the main creations and extensions, and they were really cool! I also made a few community creations, and some of my own. One thing though, and I know this review won’t really be heard by customer service once I say this. Why are you discontinuing the app and the set so quickly? I’ve only started building with it now. I should’ve used it a year ago, when I bought it. Now I only have two years until the app gets discontinued! After two years, this set is completely useless, unless you somehow connect the hub to Python or Scratch. I’m really disappointed, as I paid a lot of money for this, and then realising that this set is soon going to be useless. The bricks last forever, but not the software. I don’t think I’m going to buy any electronic LEGO toy that requires an app, unless I know that the app isn’t going to get discontinued so quickly. Disappointed about how fast the app is going to get discontinued. However, it’s a good set overall..Version: 10.4.2

Big Fail by LEGOThe app is a mess! We’ve tried on 4 different devices to get this to work. It either won’t stay connected or crashes while updating firmware. It’s probably getting returned. Don’t make the same $360 mistake Santa did!.Version: 1.0.3

App won't work properly…Hello. I was taking a break from building my robot but now when I want to continue it and re-open the app to complete the robot, only the logo shows up. I cannot get instructions up. I'm also hearing rumours that this app is being continued. If that's the case, how could you….Version: 10.5.0

HDeeez nuuuttttsss.Version: 10.3.1

Motor pairing doesn’t work???Each time I try to pair the Lego hub it doesn’t do anything I just see connect and when I press it nothing happens and I carefully followed the instructions.Version: 10.3.1

Any update on the App?It would be great to keep it up to date though....Version: 10.5.0

I cant build itFor tricky when you do penalty kick, the instructions are sooo annoying; the steps just go by so quickly, steps just disappear or it just stays on 1 step and doesn't change the step.Version: 10.3.0

Not connectedIt will not stay connected.Version: 1.0.3

Can't downloadWhen I click the download button I get an error message "Canceled"..Version: 1.0.3

Newly Installed App Hangs on Launch10.3 hangs on the black Lego Mindstorms logo screen on my mid-2015 MacBook Pro running Catalina 10.15.7. Works perfectly fine on a 2012 Mini running the same OS version with half the RAM. Unfortunately there is next to zero documentation online, just a drop-box form at //lego.build/service-apple. Safe booting without extensions does not fix the problem either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.Version: 10.3.0

Buggy messThis app was very unstable and the controller just did not work.Version: 10.5.0

Something is wrongThe "Getting Started Lessons" won't let me drag in components. When I create a project from scratch, there's no problem. I'm on OSX Mojave.Version: 10.3.0

Two missing parts that are on the robotSo there are two parts that are needed but are on the robot. Lego you need to have more of them in the box..Version: 10.5.0

Shame on LEGOShame on LEGO for abandoning support for previous Mindstorms.Version: 1.0.1

Great…when it loads.Great but all too frustratingly frequently my son opens the app…and just gets a blanks screen…and nothing…nothing…until we delete, restore, then have to recreate his programs..Version: 10.3.0

CoderThis dosent even download!!! It says purchase cancelled and I dont know how to solve it pls help if u can.Version: 1.0.3

Good badG.Version: 10.3.1

EV3 lostI got EV3 but when I went to this app, EV3 wasn’t there so Lego tell me why he wasn’t there because I was so disappointed and gave up on it.please send feedback.Version: 10.5.0

CrashesThe app is unusable and has made for an unbelievably disappointing Christmas gift. My kid is crushed this doesn’t work. It crashes every time we try to connect the hub and constantly says it needs an update despite doing it 4 times already..Version: 1.0.3

Un-downloadableIt just won't let me download >:( how do i fix this problem?!.Version: 1.0.3

LEGO pretends there was no Mindstorms before Robot InventorIt is sad that LEGO not just abandoned (understandably) previous generation of Mindstorms, but is trying to hide the fact the NXT and especially EV3 made LEGO robotics so popular: the official resources and apps for EV3 have mainly disappeared on the Web. To my question to LEGO support: “Is there any way to connect/control Mindstorms EV3 from iPhone?” the reply was “We currently have the LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Inventor app available for iPhone”. To my mind, restricting access to resources for the previously sold popular products, and stripping compatibility in order to boost sales for the new ones, only leads to supporters’ frustration and limits trust into the brand. If you have made Robot Inventor superior over EV3 you wouldn’t have a need for this marketing tricks..Version: 10.5.0

Poor backward compatibilityThe app works fairly well on the latest iOS devices, however will not load on older iPads. The device compatibility is is very poorly documented in the App Store, which states: “Requires iOS 11 or later”, whereas their developers tell me it in fact requires iOS 13 or later...Version: 10.2.0

RobotI really like this app but it keeps freezing on me..Version: 10.3.1

I think it’s good but mine doesn’t work.It is fun to be creative with the LEGO mindstorm, but every 15 seconds mine shuts off. I tried one of the designs and double checked every step but it still just tries breaking itself. It is worth the 3 start rating..Version: 1.0.3
