Very nice and working I had an old RC car and a WeMos D1 mini and had to do some changes to the code, just 4 words! As I had one motor for steering and one for acceleration (I just had to change the HIGH and LOW settings of the pins). Otherwise this code will work for SMARS and other robots who have two motors for acceleration. Very good work.

Good job! Nicely integrates ESP code and App. Extremely nice app! Only thing I had to tweak was the mapping of the direction buttons as my motors are apparently wired differently. But this is the absolute best about this whole project: It's all available on github! Great project all around! Thanks for taking the time to make the Android app available on the playstore!
