It works, read this! – RoboRemote - WowWee Review

Like others, I was initially very disappointed... After following the instructions given, it crashed on my son's iPod 4 and didn't work through my iPhone 4 either. BUT after reading through the reviews and following their instructions, it works. Do this: plug in and start the app (eyes only light up when you select a function), make sure volume is turned all the way up (app says 75% - wrong), point at robo and it should work. After I did this it worked on both of my devices. Good luck!
