Description

This app requires an Astro device. Astro uses Intelligent Motion to navigate quickly and gracefully through your ever-changing space. Astro can follow you from room to room, and find you to deliver calls, reminders, alarms, and timers set with Alexa. With the Astro app, you can see a live view of your space and check in on specific rooms, people or things. During setup, Astro learns a map of your space that you can view in the app at any time. Simply tap where you want Astro to go to start a live view, then raise or lower the periscope for a better look. You can even sound a siren remotely if you see something suspicious. Key features * See a live video feed from anywhere using Astro live view. * Send Astro to specific rooms or viewpoints. * Receive activity alerts when Astro detects an unrecognized person, or detects certain sounds like glass breaking, and smoke or CO alarms, subscription required. * Pair with Ring Alarm to have Astro investigate triggered Ring Alarms, subscription required. * Turn on the siren, and Astro will sound an alarm. * Edit your map, including room borders, and rename rooms and viewpoints. * Define out of bound zones to let Astro know where not to go. * See Astro’s location in the map, then tap a specific point to send it there. * Review pictures and videos you captured in live view. * Turn on Do Not Disturb. When Do Not Disturb is on, Astro will proactively find you only to notify you of timers, alarms and reminders. By using this app, you agree to Amazon’s Conditions of Use (www.amazon.com/conditionsofuse), Privacy Notice (www.amazon.com/privacy), and all of the terms found here (www.amazon.com/amazonastro/terms).

  • Does not work

    This is supposed to provide ‘live viewing’ but for many users that does not work. This makes it a $1700 echo device. Dumb. Recall it and release it when it works.
  • Needs more work

    The voice feature is broken - despite having Astro explore the house and map it, when trying to tell Astro to go to a specific room through voice command in the app, I get “Sorry, that feature is not available until Astro explored”… does not work even after factory rebooting Astro.

    Don’t waste your time or money on this Amazon device. It’s dangerous to have in your home. It parks in front of doors and can trip a person over. It does not respond when called and the customer service is horrible. The device “Astro” has shown no real value when it comes to home protection or even entertainment purposes.
  • Somehow keeps getting worse

    The latest update promising the building to get feedback on unrecognized people is much needed, but not even an option. Live streaming doesn’t work and it can’t even tell if a door is open or closed. It’s sad because there’s so much potential, but the app and Astro just keep getting worse.
  • The Live View Does Not Work

    The live view functionality does not work with my iPhone 12. According to Amazon tech support, this is a known issue. Amazon, when are you going to fix this?

    So many of the instructions are wrong. For example, if you want to add another person’s profile, the instructions tell you to go to setup and make the selection/.. Doesn’t work. If you have Home Monitoring on, the only way that I have found to turn it off was to log out and start over. This device has lots of potential but you are constantly running into brick walls when you try something. Very frustrating. We need software updates bad!

    It used to follow me around and roam through the house but for the last week it’s been sitting on it’s base, expressionless. It’ll answer questions but it’s not the same.
  • The worst

    This is probably the worst app I have used in a long time. I’ve had Astro for over a year and the app has not improved even a little. It crashes randomly, it hangs, it needs to be force quit when manually updating the map, some parts of the map throw an error when updating, it throws random errors when trying to maneuver the robot around, videos and video feed are poor quality. It’s like an intern wrote this.
  • Task needed

    The app needs to be able to assign Astro task like check doors or return to charger. Also Astro gives up too easy when attempting to find its way around my home. The sensors need to be a little less sensitive. Price is also way too high for the very little functionality Astro has currently. I see a lot of potential with Astro and I would buy it again if it had more features. Like a better app. Now the positive. Love to live video and recording when I’m home and away modes. I went on a cruise and knew my home was safe. Love the app shows the status history of Astro along with the recording it has.
