App is very good when you get the firmware updated, which the app refuses to do. Fortunately another review noted the firmware could be updated via the lego powered up app, simply start a new project and it autodetected the kit, when it was on, and updated the firmware. This app then worked fine. I have to say I'm disappointed if you are still selling this great toy the app needs supporting properly, its clear lots of people are getting this bug.

I was really happy with the app on my device (Samsung Galaxy Tab A) but today after the system update it is shown as a non compatible device in playstore. Even though it is listed as a standard compatible device on LEGO page - unfortunately no details and reason WHY it is not running anymore. Using Android 11 with security patch level July 2022. If the lego now "bricked"? Sad, initial experience was good.
