Tech Will Save Us, Mover Kit | Coding for Kids, Ages 8 and Up

Easy to build and my 8 year old is excited to start coding with it!

This is a good product for young makers. Good intro to physical computing. Includes every needed for simple gadgets.

My granddaughter loves it! This gift for her was a great educational experience for her!

We have this product, and finally got some interest from the kids in using it. However, the company and the software required to use this product seem to have disappeared into thin air. How is this product still being sold if it can't actually be used? If the website, software, etc., have moved under a different name, that would be great to know. Anyone have update info?

Kids all over America will be getting learning toys this year for Christmas. This is good. It gets kids started with simple coding. This kit comes with the casing and battery case, mover boards, snapband, necklace, Velcro strap and usb cable. You will also get access to coding software. The battery is included and is rechargeable (Yay). Everyone is on the STEM bandwagon and this is where this toy comes in. After following the basic directions online, connect the mover, and start coding. After the children get more understanding of the coding and how they can make it work with the lights,, then they can find additional projects on the same site. So you get more than just a small amount of easy projects.

There isn't that much to it. It is a watch like device that lights up. It is pretty large for a child (about the size of a large Apple Watch but about twice as thick). The band is one of those snap bands that kids play with.The idea isn't bad, but really all you can do with it is make the lights work. At $60 I am not sure that it is worth the price. There are a lot of coding toys out there. It is the cool thing to do right now. There is some good logic skills that are in coding. But I think that much of the process behind the coding toys is abstracted. There is a code and response aspect to this and that is good. But once you do the initial project I am not sure that this will be a toy that gets played with much.

Can't get the software to install. Won't even download using Chrome because google says the download is unsafe. Had to use Edge. Anyway, installation doesn't work. I've tried on two separate PCs both running Windows 10. It does install something (entirely in the User/AppData folder (what?)) that just runs in the background but doesn't do anything useful.I emailed tech support and got this message back:"Tech Will Save Us is no longer Trading.Please direct any queries to the administrators at FRP Advisory"Why bother? Just going to return it. Not worth the effort.

This is a pretty simple ring of leds with a sensor that lets you customize what the lights are doing based on time/orientation. That part seems like it could be pretty fun.The software is not good. The coding website can't detect that the software is installed (I'm trying windows, maybe the mac software works better), so no apps can be programmed/installed.Linux is not supported at all.
