Pairing Evo by Ozobot with your computer opens up a larger workspace for coding and controlling your robot without hunting for your phone. The app connects to your physical Evo robot via Bluetooth, letting you drive it, run OzoBlockly programs, and chat with friends using Ozojis: custom emojis that your Evo acts out. Keep the app open on your desktop alongside other windows, sign in once, and manage your robot's LED lights, sounds, and movement from a full keyboard and mouse setup.
Running Evo by Ozobot on a PC gives you room to explore the robot's coding tools and social features without switching devices. Whether you're sending your Evo on slingshot-style missions or teaching it new tricks through color codes, the desktop experience keeps everything in one place.
Controlling Evo from Your Desktop
The app's Drive mode lets you steer your Evo's speed, sounds, and LED lights directly from your computer. OzoLaunch sends the robot hurtling from target to target using slingshot controls: a mechanic that feels more natural with a mouse than on a small screen. If you own an Avenger Action Skin for Evo, you can unlock Marvel's Avengers content and complete Stark Academy missions, all launched from the same desktop window.
Building Programs with OzoBlockly
OzoBlockly is Evo by Ozobot's visual programming environment, and it works well when you can see the full canvas. You write code blocks on your computer, then run the programs directly on your robot. Color-code designs also sync through the app, letting you draw patterns on paper and have Evo follow them. The larger screen real estate makes it easier to piece together logic and test behaviors without constantly zooming or scrolling.
Staying Connected in One Place
Once you pair Evo by Ozobot on your PC, you stay signed in across sessions. Chat with friends using Ozojis (custom emojis that your Evo acts out) and view notifications without picking up your phone. You can explore Evo creations shared by the #OzoSquad and upload your own builds. A desktop setup keeps the app in the background while you work, so collaboration and discovery happen alongside other tasks.
Experience Packs and Progression
The app's Experience Packs unlock color-coding features and let you collect stars as you learn. Completing packs teaches you new ways to control Evo. Voice and Sounds lets you explore all of your Evo's audio options: another feature that benefits from a dedicated screen you can leave open during play sessions.
