It's handy when I'm showing off to my friends. It also helps with my science fair. Great app.

The fact that this app works in 2022 is a minor miracle. Thanks for giving life to an old gift, and without adverts. Lovely

It worked on a Pixel 4a. Setup is slightly tricky because you have to pair the NXT using Android's bluetooth settings before launching the app. (And don't forget to turn on Bluetooth on the NXT.) The user interface is pretty basic. It's not clear which motor is connected to which control, so try them all. Some are "tank controls" which means you need to swipe up or down. There isn't a way to just turn a motor on and leave it running, so if you want to do that, you'll need a different app. Still, it's good enough to make sure the NXT works over Bluetooth.

Quite good! Certainly does the job, the range is good and the various control schemes really open up a lot of possibilities. One suggestion, when tabbed out of the app, it seems to have to reset the connection when tabbing back in.
