mBlock Blockly App not Available on my Android device


#1

Good evening.
I’m using Makeblock app with “mbot Ranger” robot.

Trying to program the robot with graphic block mode, the app suggest me to download the other app: “mBlock Blockly”, but this second app is not available for my Android mobile because “created for a former relesase of Android”.

How can I do? M-bot without block programming is useless…
Thank you for helping

@Elettrobisturi Does the online version work on your device?

What is your device info (version, play store version, etc.)?

Hi,

I think you should try to program your mBot Ranger with block programming on an Android device you can try installing an older version of the mBlock Blockly app that is compatible with your Android version from an APK mirror site. Alternatively you can use the mBlock web based platform on a computer which supports graphical block programming for the mBot Ranger.

Thanks

hi
the online version works both on my PC and on my Android mobile.
My mobile has Android 14, and Google Play 1 April 2024.

Thank you mariyaanass

I cannot use mBlock Blockly because the app is too old, not because my device is old (“Questa app non è disponibile per il tuo dispositivo” => “This app is not available for your device”).
My mobile has Android 14.
The web based platform, yes, can be a solution without the app.

@Elettrobisturi Android 14 is quite new. :slight_smile: Maybe support for it hasn’t been launched yet. Not sure. Try again in October (I believe there is a new app release then) and use the PC or web versions for now.
