User Reviews

So realistic especially having control of the sounds without a cord

Ke*****, 2023-01-22

I really like this system. My only issue is that after awhile of being out of the app and using my phone for other things, when I go back in, the train does not seem to respond to commands from the phone. Power cycling and reconnecting resolves the issue. Until this is resolved, I may just use an older device as a dedicated remote as a work around. As of right now, this does not work with Android 11 (S21 Ultra)
