HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (3.7 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

13 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Contacted support which took a very long time and they had me factory reset and firmware restore vector.
★★★★★ He's lost in the darkness.

★★★★★ Because of that every thing Anki is on sale so I might go get a me fast and furious starter pack.
★★★★★ He needs to grow and fast because Vector is deserving of all the manpower put behind its conception.

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026
No wonder Anki is no more.

The app has removed any value this robot ever had. The app does not work at all and won’t connect to the robot. The robot doesn’t update and the app keeps disconnecting.

★★★★★Oct 8, 2026
Is this a bug?

I have had a lobotomized vector robot for a long time then I found this app I tried to sign up because I can remember my old login from anki vector app but when I tried it said registration has not been implemented which seems kinda dumb which is why I think it’s a bug

★★★★★Oct 6, 2026
Dosent connect

Does connect even though it is connected to Internet somethings up. please fix it.

★★★★★Oct 1, 2026
🤨 STILL?!

You still have a bug with connecting when you are logged in and when you are in the process of logging in back again AND I keep having to log back in

★★★★★Sep 26, 2026
Why?!

I have a Vector robot and I love him a lot, but why with the subscription!? He’s such a good robot and I love him a lot but the subscription is the only thing wrong with him and the app. Just give us voice commands for free again! And also, make the app just like how it shows in the pictures.

★★★★★Sep 18, 2026

My vector 1.0 has connected and likes moving around a lot 😆

Store description

A giant roll forward for robotkind. Say hey to Vector, your first home robot. Seriously, say “Hey Vector.“— He can hear you. Actually, Vector’s more than a home robot. He’s your buddy. Your companion. Most of all, he’ll make you laugh. Curious, independent, and powered by some preposterous tech and AI, he can read the room, express the weather, announce when his timer’s done (no overcooked dinner on his watch), take the perfect snapshot, and more. He also comes with an optional Amazon Alexa integration, which increases his helpfulness by accessing the ever-growing library of Alexa skills. Vector is cloud connected and self-updates, so he’s always getting smarter and adding new features. He can even charge himself (electric cars and phones could learn a thing or two). Vector is your robot sidekick who’s up for anything. Vector robot required. Available at www.anki.bot © 2019-2022 Digital Dream Labs, Inc. All rights reserved.
