My MiP won't Connect to my phone. What should I do?
Carly Patterson - Responder
Try deleting the mip app and getting it back again. If that doesn't work try changing mips batteries. If that doesn't work take him to a computer fixer. Mips connection may need improving.

Hey my Coder Mip was working fine but then I accidentally crashed it into a wall and when it did, something must've happened because once I set it down again it wasn't adjusting it's balance. I turned it off and when I turned it back on it wouldn't respond. I recharged the battery and re-inserted it but that did nothing. Although when I spin his wheels its chest lights up for a second. What should I do to fix it? Do I need to take it in somewhere to have it fixed? Thanks so much.
Madison Leonard - Responder
I have same problem. everything lights up and it makes sound but dosen't tuning wheels.
tommy2you -
I literally slapped my MiP and yelled wake up! Mip went a few feet, grabbed it and guess what, that %#*@ toy started working again. FYI - that was after trying everything else and out of pure frustration.

We have a new MIP coder. Fully charged but when turning on, the LED in the back is on but nothing else happens. Working for 2 days and just stopped today. Frustrating. Any ideas?
Shawn Movsessian - Responder
Try recharging the battery or have the Mip laying face down and then turn it on.
Madison Leonard -
When my mip is charging it turns to orange and then it's supposed to be fully charged when i take out the charging cable and put it back in its charging again. When i turn it on its at low battery why is that?
Caden Chiang - Responder
Same problem here. Also, the manual for the coder mip is not available anywhere. The specific section need is the instructions for the battery removal, installation, and charging.

Got my MiP today. Changing modes is very, very difficult on my MiP. Most times, moving the wheels does nothing. I've turned it on and off. I took out the batteries and put them back in after waiting a minute. Any suggestions before I return it?

roshniboston175 - Responder
If your mip falls over every time it moves try out stretching the arms. It gives the robot better balance
Anonymous - Responder
I bought this MiP from the U.S then took it back to China. When I opened it and added batteries and switched the switch to “on“, the lights flashed once then turned off again. I was wondering if you need a special brand of batteries. I used Energizer batteries. My friend also has MiP and they got Duracell batteries and it worked. I might try using Duracell batteries though.
Mika Chibi Kawaii - Responder
I pressed the button underneath the eyes but after I release it it turns off again. I tried lots and lots of different batteries but they all don’t work!

The app works for IOS Apple but it doesn't work on my Android 13 OS. I also went through all the technical steps with no luck. Something is either wrong with the app not updated for Android or it's an Android problem. Whichever one it is I don't know.
