Root Coding
The official app for the iRobot™ Root Coding Robot.
Make whimsical discoveries through coding and creation! Root is a robot that can draw, sing, and do many incredible things—launching your imagination to new heights. Develop your skills as you explore a curated library of activities, lessons, videos, and games in the app. With Root as your coding companion, you’ll discover the joys of programming, music, art, and more!
With Root’s three programming levels, learning to code has never been easier:
LEVEL 1: Graphical blocks teach the essential logic skills of coding. Problem solve and code creatively with Root before even knowing how to read.
LEVEL 2: Hybrid coding blocks give more precise control of the code. The advanced drag-and-drop language builds computational fluency and introduces new coding concepts like variables, math, and logic.
LEVEL 3: Seamlessly enter the world of full text coding. Build advanced algorithms, complex math functions, and control Roots actuators and sensors with the syntax and structure of professional coding languages like Swift.
