WHAT'S NEW IN SPIKE App 3?
Faster Hub Wireless Connection

Easy wireless connection means students can start working on lessons faster allowing them to spend more time engaging and learning. Wireless connections through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) are more straightforward and faster and available for all platforms and SPIKE sets. This includes wireless connection for SPIKE Prime for web app users!

Enhanced Model Movement Prediction

Improved motor precision increases the predictability of the model movement. The motor movement blocks improve motor regulation resulting in more precise motor behavior.

Improved Firmware Upgrade

Updating firmware is now much faster for SPIKE Prime. Students can continue to work their coding during the upgrade.

Support for bigger User Programs

More Hub memory supports bigger user programs. This allows advanced users and competition teams to string longer code together to solve missions more effectively.

Simplified Motor and Movement Blocks

Simplified palette of motor and movement blocks makes coding more intuitive and empower students to test, debug and optimize their designs.

SPIKE 2 Project compatibility and Python

For advanced users or those on a competition team who reuse/revisit saved programs, it may be best to wait to upgrade as your programs will not be compatible with SPIKE App 3.

If you have LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime / LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Essential then you need to download and install the SPIKE App or use the web version. The SPIKE App Includes lessons, getting started tutorials, building instructions and help section.

Please Note

  • The Python API is part of a coming update to the SPIKE App.If you are coding in Python, we recommend you stay on the Spike Legacy App until this update is available.
  • SPIKE App 2 projects are not currently compatible with the SPIKE App 3 and vice versa.If you have saved user programs that you want to run, please use the Legacy App.
