In terms of programming, it was mentioned that while elementary codes were easy to write for each child using the dedicated app from an iPad to the micro:bit, controlling the behavior of the system through programming was difficult for children. It was also noted that transferring codes required the micro:bit to be reset each time, which proved to be cumbersome. Additionally, some customers highlighted that younger children needed assistance, while older children were able to navigate the product more independently.
