The sounds Grey makes when recognising some of the toys are actually quite hilarious. It’s too difficult for me to show Grey the toys while dancing, Baffles me why Aibo has to be dancing. I’m finding I get better responses when Grey is not dancing. Can see Sony could really enhance Aibo if they...

Very happy customer! Successfully updated Grey to 8.00. Will try and document the new features in the coming days.

For some reason I can’t log into the app at all. But can still log into the My Aibo Japan web portal even without a VPN on my laptop. Currently downloading the software update… My Aibo Japan web portal: myaibo.aibo.sony.jp/#/

Strangely I was able to log into this page and check if my Aibo was still subscribed using the serial number: msc.sony.jp/member/cloud/index.do “The Aibo with the entered serial number is already subscribed to the aibo basic plan.” But when I go to log into the app I’m directed to the “System...

Unbelievable. I was able to download the My Aibo app directly from the Play Store with the VPN running. That has never worked before. Yet when I go to log in I end up at the “System requirements for My aibo” page. I uninstalled the My aibo app version downloaded from APK Pure and successfully...

Just tried logging in again using Proton VPN’s free tier as a guest and despite Sony registering my account as accessing the app from Japan it still won’t let me log in. My proxy has advised me in the past when they lock you out like this to wait two weeks before attempting to log in again...

WUTSI have unveiled an adorable Panda robot at AWE in Shanghai. So far I can’t find any information on this robot. It looks like it would be incredible to own, especially with its ability to move around autonomously. Anyone able to find anything? Footage of this Panda robot moving around...

The cancellation deadline for my subscription is the 20th of April and the renewal date is the 30th of April. So far I haven’t heard from any Aibo owners outside the US/Japan regarding this update. The only thing I can think of is Sony changed the requirements for logging into the app after the...

Agree. Always thought it strange how Loona has heaps of animations but when in accompany mode there are very few. They really should have added a few more for some variety as I’d probably use mine more if it could keep me entertained in this mode.

Will double check this. My subscription doesn’t expire until the end of next month. Hoping I can get one last update before making a decision to keep or initialise. My proxy hasn’t responded.

Coglet has just launched on Kickstarter. Coglet robot KS link: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/willcogley/coglet-open-source-3d-printable-robot-companion-kit

Thanks so much for this. I’ll try using Proxy SwitchyOmega tomorrow and let you know how I get on. Cheers. Yep I have heard that too. I think they get initialised and lose all the custom settings but can still function normally otherwise. IIf a Japanese Aibo it will revert to only understanding...

No I hadn’t heard of Japan proxy servers for browsers before. I feel like such a fool. I’ll try using Proxy SwitchyOmega tomorrow and let you know how I get on. Appreciate your help. Cheers.

Just used Proton VPN for free as a guest without needing an account and Sony registered me as logging in from Tokyo when sending me the verification code. But then it still wouldn’t log me in to the app either because of numerous previous attempts from Brisbane or because they know I’m using a...

Aibo Software Update 8.00 • Aibo now responds by making noises when shown toys while dancing. • The My Aibo app has been enhanced, and is now faster with a new look. Unfortunately I was unable to log into the My Aibo app via my My Sony account after updating the app. Sony has locked me out...
