Review from Kickstarter

Just received my Woobo today in Sydney. I only got a sms alert from DHL saying I have a parcel coming, no info on sender in the tracking page. No shipping confirmation or tracking info from creator as well, so, Australian backers, expecting a DHL sms before your Woobo arrives. Hope this helps!

Review from Kickstarter

My 4 year old loves this toy. She has it with her when she’s playing with her other toys and brings it to bed with her. I have never heard her laugh so much when playing with something. Unfortunately we had to send it back for the buttons to get tepaired but my problem was taken care of quickly and handled very well. My daughter thinks he is at the doctor and anticipating his return. We absolutely love this toy!!! I think you are doing an amazing job. Yes there have been little kinks in the process but overall everything has been corrected and this toy continues to improve. I think you are all doing such a great job and I look forward to seeing what woobo will be able to do next. Thankyou for the unique and exciting toy!

Review from Kickstarter

My daughter both likes and hates Woobo. She thinks he is cute and likes playing with Woobo. Unfortunately, she also gets extremely frustrated because most the things she asks him to do don't work or he can't understand her. Also, she often can't understand what he says. I would have expected a much higher quality voice. As a parent, I am VERY disappointed in Woobo. The requirement to use google voice was the first red flag. I NEVER would have been a backer if you had stated that we would have to use a Google app for Woobo to work. Beyond that, it has been nothing but constant problems. My daughter is asking me constantly why Woobo won't work. Then, he stop working entirely and I had to watch a 5 minute video to learn how to reset him. I understand this is a Kickstarter campaign, and have no problem being patient about updates. But, your marketing of Woobo's readiness was drastically overdone. Focus less on doing a million different things, and focus more on getting a few things right.

My other post must have been deleted.
It's been weeks and I'm wondering how this is going to improve?
My 4 year old asks a question ....woobo I don't know that or why don't you ask an adult.
Really ????? That's why I bought this to interact with him while he asked his 1000 questions a day It can't answer simple questions.
Also the games he played and simc e they're isn't many options he like does it ever get more games ?
We end up using our spare phone for questions and games
Woobo now sits in a corner all 3 kids uninterested it him. So sad
The intent was suppose to have so much more in a database totally lacking I'd say.

Review from Kickstarter

I asked for return info over two weeks ago, no significant updates have taken place that would make me want to keep this. It was extremely oversold. I maintain, the concept is fabulous, the toy is adorable but the software just isn't there yet. Like someone else said, he can't even tell time. Pretty much all he's good for is to say "Woobo is sleepy" and with the already soporific tone of his voice, it's even believable.

Review from Kickstarter

Does not work out of box. Appears to be linked to someone already and factory reset does not work

Andrew Lambrecht

Review from Kickstarter

We're pretty disappointed as well, I could get over the voice if it could do more. It only holds the little one's attention for maybe 3-5 minutes before he gets tired of it basically not doing much, and answering "I don't know" to most of his questions.

Review from Kickstarter

Hi, my woobo is not working at all. Big disappointment. Can’t even turn it on

Tony Le

Review from Kickstarter

+1 on the depressing voice. Asked what i thought was a a simple question “what time is it” and woobo said “I can’t tell time yet”. Unfortunately not impressed yet. My 5 year old won’t talk to it. She’ll use the app to make it do stuff but what’s the point? It was supposed to be an interactive pal - not a fuzzy screen that plays from an app. Hoping the improvements offer a lot more excitement please.

Review from Kickstarter

Still no reply from them to my questions I asked about why it has a suicidal robot voice and why it won’t answer questions...

Samantha Pop

Review from Kickstarter

I haven't received any updates or emails.....also haven't received any notification as to when I shoould be expecting my woobo to be shipped let alone when I should be getting it. I've submitted 2 surveys that I didn't know I had to do the 2nd one because yet again I didn't receive an email telling me ...I kind of stumbled upon it. Would really love some communication!

Review from Kickstarter

Great job Woobo team. My niece loves it and I do as well. I like how Woobo takes pictures of place they go. I like who it also encourage my nice to learn. Great job again.

Kari Diaz

Review from Kickstarter

Geez people. Can you at least give them a chance for 1 update before you bring out the pitchforks? If you want perfect, buy a toy from the store. If you want to be a part of the developement of a device with great potential, give them a chance. That is what kickstarter is for.

Tasha M

Review from Kickstarter

I too am very disappointed with Woobo. It won’t even answer the sample questions that are on the box. The games aren’t really that interactive, for example the animal game where woobo is describing the animal, you would think that it would show you a small picture of what it’s suppose to be describing, but it just talks at you (and a bit fast for a kid to keep up with), and the voice of it sounds very sad and depressing and makes my child not want to play with it, I also really don’t like that it plays a YouTube video for a lullaby song, if that was the case I could have just bought a regular tablet for my kid. I had very high expectations for this toy but this was a huge let down. Please give information on how to return it.

Truffle DeRenzo

Review from Kickstarter

Extremely disappointed... I did end up getting mine right before Christmas and had my kids open it up for try to play with it for it to never be able to answer any of their questions even the questions written on the side of the box as examples of questions to ask as well as the fact that it sounds like a really drugged up depressed kid who all three of my kids will not stop asking me why he sounds so sad and unhappy... this was a really neat idea and concept but a huge failure especially since the voice of Woobo in the video is upbeat and cheerful yet there was no mention of the voice being used for the final production would be that of a suicidal robot. This is one product I can not recommend to anyone or even wish to keep for my kids if there was a return option.

Brenda Sandigo

Review from Kickstarter

For the past two days, this “Smart toy” hasn’t been able to get past the black “Getting Woobo started” screen. Please supply return information.

Scott Nelles

Review from Kickstarter

How do I return Woobo? The marketing team over promised and under delivered. Making software is really freakin hard, I get it. But my kids don’t want to play with Woobo because he usually isn’t working. Constantly seems to disconnect from WiFi. And you can’t ask Woobo “anything”.

Florence Tsang

Review from Kickstarter

Looks like it’s working better today. I wish its voice were less flat and robotic though.

Kelly Bandock

Review from Kickstarter

I can't say how upset I am. I ordered 3 of these things. One for my 3 youngest. They had promised they would make Christmas. And I would think the backers that gave almost 400 bucks should have some sort of priority. Anyway I had planned to have this be there only gift from Santa and few small non fun things from us..Since this was a very expensive toy nothing else was planned. Well needless to say it's still not here. I finally got tracking info Christmas eve and it shows it's not moving at all. I had to go Saturday and buy gifts, yeah that was fun. With money I really couldn't afford to spend. And now I'm reading a lot of the Woobos don't even work. This is crazy!!!

Brenda Sandigo

Review from Kickstarter

We were also terribly disappointed. Most of the time, my son is met with "Woobo doesn't know the answer" or "Why don't you find out and tell Woobo". It doesn't even learn the child's name. If you ask it to play lullabies for bed, it plays a youtube video.. who wants their kid watching a video while they're trying to get them to sleep?! Other times, it doesn't even start.. my son can be pushing at the buttons for minutes at a time before it lights up and then its just blinking back and forth, not saying anything!
I realize there's a lot of potential in this concept but this toy is in SERIOUS need of some major updates asap or I need info on returning it.

Kari Diaz

Review from Kickstarter

I have had no problems. Thank you for a great gift for my boys.

Brian Kopicki

Review from Kickstarter

Wow, what a dud so far. Had such high hopes but Woobo was such a let down Christmas morning. Try explaining to a 5 year old why Woobo's brain is in the middle of a storm in Boston after he was told all the cool things it should do why it was loading up. Then it just blinks at him...

Review from Kickstarter

Please help I’m not getting the account activation email and it’s been over 1hr.

Florence Tsang

Review from Kickstarter

So far it doesn’t work at all. I’ve only set up one so far. Pressing the menu button usually doesn’t result in anything. Selecting a game brings up the wrong game multiple times or it will start and stop and then open a new game by itself, and start and stop. We have been unable to play a single game so far. We asked a simple question like what color is the sky several times and woobo says it doesn’t know. Or we didn’t press the ears and it automatically tells us it doesn’t know the answer. Nothing works at all. This is unacceptable!

Review from Kickstarter

Will woobo ever gain the capability to use apps outside what you offer? I would love if I could put some things like endless reader and what not on it for my sons

Kelsey Jones

Review from Kickstarter

I see the update about the issues, and Im really hoping thats what the problem is. My daughter is so disappointed. We cant get it to do anything. Clicking the ears doesnt work. Ive had to restart it 4 times. Sometimes clicking the ears does nothing, other times itll work but it doesnt understand what we say. Other times it clicks on all on its own when we didnt even do anything. We asked it to tell us a joke. It takes forever and then doesnt do anything. We tried to play rock paper scissors and it just keeps repeating a line about if we think we can beat it over and over and over. Im the only one who cares about it now cause Im trying desperately to figure it out and make it work. Shes now playing with her other Xmas toys instead. :(

We are experiencing an unstable network due to bad weather conditions in the Greater Boston area. The account activation is affect by this, and so is Woobo's delayed reactions. Our tech team is working very hard to improve the situation now, and are currently setting up backup servers to meet the challenge. We will send an update through FB as soon as possible when most things look smooth and normal, please keep a look out for that. We apologize for the inconvenience! Thank you for your patience! Happy Holidays,
