Wickedbone

My pup interacts with the toy and we have fun driving it. Haven’t done a lot with it set to interactive (automatic). One goofy thing happening to me is that if the toy is connected, and I go out of range with the phone, I have to recharge it fully in order to connect. Not only that, but once it’s fully charged, it doesn’t let me connect. I have to immediately barge it again before I connect. That is, I Chevy it to where the LEDs are green, then pull the charger, immediately plug the charger back in, and the LED’s are yellow again. After a couple of minutes they go green again, and then I can connect. I learned this and just do it. Goofy.

Cannot see anything under settings

my dog litterally wants to do everything with it at this point

App doesn’t work consistently and I’m very disappointed!! If I could return it to get my money back I would

This toy is worth the money and does keep my dog highly entertained and distracted. But the app itself is poorly designed and needs a lot of work. 1. On my iPhone 8, buttons near the top, including settings, cannot be pressed as they are slightly offscreen. 2. Most of the actions in drive mode don’t quite work as advertised, and the bone seems in capable of actually moving forward in a straight line. 3. I really want the interactive mode to keep my dog distracted, but it doesn’t. This mode needs to be completely replaced IMO. The bone is too easily obtained in this mode and often goes silent for long periods of time. I find that the only way to really get it to do what I want is just to go back to manual mode and keep hitting the “quick jump” action over and over the moment my dog starts to ignore it. So I really just want the interactive mode to do this at random intervals, or better yet, give me control over which actions it does when in this automated interactive mode. 4. The bone itself should be producing sounds to attract the dog’s attention, but instead, the app itself does this… Which is annoying. In the next version there should be some sort of built-in speaker with sounds that dogs like, and an option in the app to set the volume or turn it off.

Cannot access settings with small bezel phone

This app does a great job interacting with the toy. I just noticed the settings have become more customizable since the last time we played with it! I’m happy that I’m able to make the toy more active when it’s in interactive more now.

This app is great for managing the Wickedbone. The one problem is that the app is still made for iPhones with large bezels. It’s hard to hit the settings or disconnect buttons if you have an iPhone with small bezels.

Let users program how it will behave in the automatic interactive mode. For example, let us set how many seconds of inactivity will make the toy spin around to get the dog’s attention back. Or program it to run away from the dog like a mouse being chased. And the possibilities will be endless if you allow for that functionality. This will make the product more dynamic and smart. You could provide some sample programs, and let us write custom ones too. I hope you guys consider this or someone might make something similar with this functionality and beat you to the punch! Hope to hear back from you.

I’ve re-downloaded the app several times but since upgrading to ios 13 the app is unable to connect with the bone without the app crashing
