For general questions about the Vector robot, you can find helpful answers here from the Vector distributors.

Usage & Security

Do I need a Vector to use this system?

Not necessarily. In order for your child to play with their friend, at least one of the children needs a Vector. If you do not have a Vector, but your child has a friend who does own a Vector, then they can still connect and play.

How do I know that my child is only connecting with other children they know?

In order to create a connection between your child and another, you have to share a password with the other person. This password must be shared outside the app, which ensures that you know the individual independently from the app. The password for your robot also changes daily, which provides an extra level of security for you and your child.
