For those having issues connecting to “Live” mode…you need to connect through Bluetooth to a different mode. You must return to Bluetooth on your phone and connect to “skeleton LIVE “ in order to use the live mode, yes, even if you’re already connected to it!On a separate note, it disconnects (and won’t reconnect without going into demo mode) if you switch to “timer/sensor” mode on the skeleton. You cannot reach this setting without turning the skeleton off momentarily. Once you do that, your phone cannot reconnect to the skeleton without going into demo mode…meaning you cannot use that setting at all and keep the phone connected. This is a major flaw in the app that must be fixed!

***Update. Finally got it to connect after further research. All is well now. But it’s a little confusing that you have to double connect to the skeleton in order to use live mode. by this I mean you have to connect to the skeleton in the app. Then go to your Bluetooth settings and connect that way as well to control it manually on live mode. I have never used a Bluetooth device before where it requires a double connection in order to use it. Might be something the developers can look into update or fixing. Maybe I misread the included instructions but this process isn’t really clear when initially setting up***Just got the 6.5ft skeleton and the app will not allow for live audio access. It keeps telling me to connect to Bluetooth but I am already connected. I have reset the device and it still doesn’t allow live audio access. This needs to be corrected.

I got the regular Bluetooth to connect to the skeleton just fine, but I cannot get the Skeleton (Live) to consistently appear, and I haven’t been able to connect to it. I honestly don’t know why there are two connections, that seems lazy on the developers part. Make it more user friendly please! These are expensive props! The whole reason I purchased this was to do the live mode.

The app has the standard features it needs to, but it would be nice to have longer audio options, text to speech, and more voice options to choose from. Also, if you dismiss a firmware update alert, there seems to be no way to get back to it, even though it says it will remind you again later. I’ve been trying to get the update to reappear for a week now.
