    "Omni 2" created and downloads and attaches fine.
    What I was trying to do can't actually be done at the moment.  I can see a this being very useful, so could you please look into adding it:
    I have a moc with 4 wheels, each wheel has a motor therefore each wheel is connected to a port on the brick.  I wanted to add another slider that would be attached to all ports, in effect a very simple forwards and backwards moving all 4 wheels in one direction.  In the app at present you can only assign a single port to a single control.  Would it be better to look at this from the other direction and assign a port to a control?  Or multiple ports to a control?  Yes, you can set all ports on the brick to a single control, but then you can't do anything else.
    I realise you could potentiallly end up with opposing commands on a port so there would have to be some logic to make sure this couldn't happen.
    Please let me know what you think.  less

    Hi folks, one for the development team here.
    Earlier today I created a profile with 4 sliders.  I downloaded and tested with complete success.
    I then wanted to add another slider, I made the changes on the site and saved the changes, I then downloaded 'Updated' the profile on my phone, at which point the app crashed.
    I repeatedly tried to attach the updated profile to the moc with the same results, crashed every time.  I deleted the moc and tried to attach the profile with the same results.  So there must be a bug somewhere with the app reading the profile.  I have left the profile in place so you can have a look at it.  "Omni Wheels".  I will try to create another.
    There is one other things that I think is wrong.  You can name the controls in the designer, but you don't see the names in the brick setup on the phone.
    I'm using an up to date Iphone 6 with the latest released sbrick app, I still haven't had a link to the test flight release.
    Thanks.  less

    I have looked at the Kinect 2 which could be very interesting, but still need to have a control API in the look somewhere.  Could be extremely useful for me in time.

    Outside in a completely open space I can get around 14 meters with an iPhone 6.
    Now obvioulsy this is BLE which will have a lower range.  So, what would one do to increase this range?  One thing I really want to get working is moving targets down the garden, this is impossible in a wheelchair, I would love to manage 30 meters which is the distance I target shoot.  less

    Just an idea...
    Most apps, especially on iOS, give you one way only to navigate to settings or data input pages.  Rather than the form for Firmware/sbrick and name etc -sometimes- showing when you add a brick to a model, just remove that possibility and only allow basic brick setup from a main menu button which is already on the main screen.
    Also the order in which things have to be done seems odd to me.  I've been a software developer for 20 years, PC's and portable devices.  My main objective when I take on any project is to ensure the algorythm for the user is intuitive and simple.  I do find the sbrick app confusing.  (I do also try to write an application that does what the customer wants!)
    First you have to name a model and assign a picture, that makes sense, but then you have to assign a profile before you've added a brick, this makes setting up a model with 2+ bricks even more complicated.  Once a brick is associated with a model you then have to go into the brick...    less

    So, I don't know if this has been addressed already, when selecting an sbrick for a profile you always see Update Firmware! if the brick has the latest version or not.  A check of the firmware version would be a good idea, with multiple bricks this would save a lot of potential issues.

    You have a good point about the dongle, it's not that old but I will have to check the version.
    Do you know if there are any plans to release an API for developers?  I've been looking recently at a lot of the NXT competitions, while I would never want to see an end to on board problem solving, I can see a different logic path to having an 'intelligent' wifi connection to a moc.  less
