I’ve become aware from the comments in other posts that a lot of people are having issues with the Furby apps (Both Furby 2012 and Furby Boom). In this post I’m going to lay out all of the known information on the apps and what devices they are compatible with. If I’ve missed something or you have any questions make sure to comment below! 🙂
Note: Keep in mind that the 2012 Furby app is not compatible with the FurbyBoom toys just as the FurbyBoom app is not compatible with the 2012 Furby toys.
Furby 2012 App
What Apple devices does the 2012 Furby App work on?
Any iOS device (iPod, iPad, & iPhone) running iOS 4.3 or later. Due to hardware limitations, the app may not have full functionality on some older Apple devices.
Which Android devices will the app work with? (Note: Some functions of the app may work on other Android devices, depending on hardware limitations)
Additional Info: While the app does work with the Kindle Fire HD, it is not compatible with the Kindle Fire (Two separate devices) because of hardware limitations. There has been a misconception that Hasbro just refuses to create a Kindle Fire version of the app, this is not true. The Kindle Fire simply isn’t a powerful enough device to run the app.

Hello, Can I change the language of Furby boom to Spanish from settings of the APP? I mean if after converting the language he begins to speak in Spanish. Thanks!
Tengo un furby boom y no conecta con la tablet samsung galaxy tab 3…..debería funcionar?
Hola. Vivo en Colombia y compramos un furby, este no se sincroniza con el ipad . Ya lo revisaron en Apple y el problema dicen que es de muñeco ya lo hemos cambiado dos veces y sigue el problema con quién podemos hablar paraque lo arreglen
Hello Lucia! Welcome to FurbyManual! 🙂 – After the Ios7 update (on Apple devices) You need to give the app access to your microphone. ) On Ipad – (Settings – Privacy – Microphone – Furby App – Select On.). The app on ipad makes a sound that humans usually don’t hear, that is how it “talks” to the Furby.

Hola Lucia! Bienvenido a FurbyManual! 🙂 – Después de la actualización Ios7 (en los dispositivos de Apple) Es necesario dar el acceso a la aplicación de su micrófono. ) El Ipad – (Configuración – Privacidad – Micrófono – Furby App -. Seleccionar On ). La aplicación en el iPad hace un sonido que los humanos normalmente no escuchan, que es como se “habla” con el Furby.
Hola Lucia, lo que pasa es que la aplicacion que necesita tu Furby es la Furby Boom App y no esta disponible en Latinoamerica. Nos han engañado! Esto no lo advierten antes de comprarlo.
Hola, a mi me funciona en la kindle HD. Hasta donde se, es en la unica tablet en Colombia donde se puede bajar la app Furby boom
Hola. Tengo un Furby Boom y una tablet nexus 7 y funciona perfecto
Great news for all of you Nexus 7 Tablet users! Thanks for sharing Diego!
Thanks for your above info. We have another problem, however. We updated the furby boom app today to version 1.4, along with other apps on a Samsung galaxy tab2 and now the furby boom app won’t load. It freezes in the purple start screen. Any ideas? We are hoping to avoid deleting and reinstalling the app as dont want to loose progress. Hope you can help.
Try completely shutting down the app, also reset your device. Once it reboots, and you reload the app, it may start working properly.
Thanks for the info. If you change iPads, will Furby boom change as well because of the move?
Nope, changing devices won’t affect your Furby’s personality. Using the app with your Furby for a while can change its personality over time though.
Hvilke lande er furby booms ny app til rådighed i ?
“Which countries are furby booms new app available?”
Anyone have the answer to this one? :o) I admit that I have no idea. Hasbro has posted what countries the original Furby app are available but to my knowledge they haven’t posted where the FurbyBOOM app is available.
I have downloaded the android furby boom app, but when scanning it won’t connect to furby boom
I have a google slate android tablet
Model Number LG-V909
Android Version 3.1
It will not communicate with my furby boom need help. I have searched the internet with no luck. Can someone please tell me the problem?
I have downloaded this app but it will not communicate with my furby. I have a t mobile g slate running android version 3.1. Please help. What device have people used and actually got the app to work before I go out and get a new one?
My daughter has the Samsung galaxy tab 3 7inch will the woodwork with this??
Furbies don’t have hands, so they aren’t very good wood workers. ;o) The App should work fine with Samsung Galaxy Tab 3!
Hi Can you please confirm if the app does indeed work with Samsung TAB 3 – I am about to purchase one to go along with Furby boom for my daughters Christmas.
Thanks,
The FurbyBoom App is confirmed to work with Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Although it doesn’t specifically say “Tab 3”. I’m betting it will work fine. To all visitors: Has anyone tried the Tab 3 yet?
I have tried the Boom app with the Galaxy Tab 3 7 inch and there are problems. We had problems with the initial communication and there are a lot of problems starting the app. When the title starts to spin it tends to crash. I normally have to restart the tablet and wait for it to complete loading before running it. There are always problems running the app if YouTube was used prior to running Furby Boom.
*Will the app ……predictive text
The new one will next year. ;o)
My daughters Furby 2012 has not been out of its box for 6 months, I have replaced the batteries and it is moving and eyes are alight, its mouth moves but no sound comes out? I have reset using the little reset button where the batteries go in but still no sound?? Any ideas??
Try all of the steps above and make sure the new batteries match (not two different brands). It may take a few tries sometimes, but it should work.
I am having a similar problem getting boom android app to work. I can’t believe the nook hd + is not supported especially since it’s as strong as the kindle fire hd spec wise and not as locked down a device. I feel like I have been defrauded by Hasbro and I hav told them so. I doubt I’ll hear back though.
I understand your frustration James, Hasbro really should expand on the devices the app will run on!
I second that.
Buenas noches, estoy buscando informacion acerca de como hacer para que el Furby de mi hija tenga sonido, mueve los ojos y se mueve pero no se escucha su voz, tiene solo 4 dias con mi hija y no sabemos que paso, me podrian ayudar gracias
Gloria – Medelli-Colombia
Hola Gloria! A veces esto sucede, asegúrese de que las baterías están siendo fuertes y restablecer el furby (las instrucciones se encuentran en el artículo “Cómo solucionar problemas de Furby“. El restablecimiento debería solucionar su problema. Si el restablecimiento no está arreglando el problema, debe cambiar el Furby en el almacenar o llamar a atención al cliente de Hasbro y ver si lo intercambian para usted. Gracias por la escritura y la buena suerte!
Hola buen dia, excelente página web. Seia posible que me comente el procedimiento para entender el nombre del Furby. Mi hijo tiene el Furby Boom, y entiendo que se hace desde la aplicación Furby Boom. Gracias adelantadas
Hola.
Tengo un samsung galaxy xcover version android 2.3.6, tambien una tablet XPX version android 4.2.2 alguno de stos dispositivos es compatible con el furby?
Can I play my furby with surface microsof tablet?
I have a iPad and and iPod touch and 1 Furby Boom. Can I switch between the 2 devices with the same Furby?
I am also wondering about this. We were able to connect to the ipod 4, but Furby won’t connect to the ipad now. Can 1 Furby connect to 2 devices?
Im pretty sure you can connect your Furby to as many devices that you want, they will just keep separate info (like eggs, games etc). One device can have up to 3 Furbies attached at any time. You can delete a Furby from the app too, to make room if you ever need to.
Do I understand that there isn’t any way of syncing all the data between devices, so that each device has the same eggs, furblings etc. ?
Hi Mark, I don’t believe there is a way to sync up furby data between other furbies. Unless you have a way to backup/restore your tablet.
I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 brand new. I hope these work with the furby boom and the app. If someone knows can they please tell me?
My furby boom will not communicate with my samsung galaxy tab 3 either. Can some please help me maybe make a tutorial?
Laura, Please keep us posted of your progress if any with the Galaxy Tab 3. I just ordered 2 for my daughters along with 2 Furby Booms. Honestly if the app isn’t going to work with the tablets. I’ll return the Furby Booms as the app was the main draw for wanting the new Furby’s. How fun are the Furby Booms vs. Furby in your opinion with out the use of the app?
You shouldn’t have any problems with your Galaxy Tab 3, The software is where compatibility issues arise, as long as your device runs on Apple (iOS) or Google (Android) It is supposed to work fine! 🙂
I’ve tried 2 Furby Booms on my Samsung Galaxy Tab3 7in. The app loads fine but the Furby’s only scan intermittently. My children are very upset and I’ve advised them that they are not compatible. I’ve also tried to scan the Furby’s with my Asus Transformer Pad. Though the app loads they won’t scan at all. I’m convinced that buying the Furby Booms were a very poor investment since they are obviously incompatible with many tabs out there. Poor form Hasbro.
I have heard there are ways to get the golden egg without the furby boom can someone tell me how please?????
I could be wrong, but I think you need the interaction of a FurbyBoom to find the golden egg. 🙂
I have the kindle fire hd will the app work it is the 8.9 screen one??
Yes. It works fine with mine. Still trying to get it to work with my ipod 5 though. Won’t sync.
Is the Furby Boom app available in Sweden? If not, when Will it be? Reason i’m asking is because I recently bought two furby boom as christmas presents for my kids when i was in USA.
The furby boom works on my iphone 3 with iOS 6 update
Which versions of Kindle Fire will work with Furby Boom app? Will it work with Kurio tablets? Does the device need to have a camera for the app to work?
Hasbro’s website says the “Kindle Fire HD” is compatible, but the regular Kindle Fire is not. I don’t believe a camera is needed for the app to work.
Do you know if there’s any way to scan a code if you’re playing on a device with no camera? for instance, taking a picture of the code and importing it somehow? My kids are playing on an old iPad without one.
Will the app work with Kurio or Tabeo e2 tablets?
Only if they use Apple or Android operating system 🙂
Hi there, I bought a Furby Boom in the US. My Apple account is set up in Spain. I cannot download (i cannot even find!) the Furby Boom app from the App Store. I can only download the Furby 2012 app. Is it because I am in the Spanish app store? should i set up an American account then?
Im not sure if you need an American account, it seems like the apps should be available to all? Try downloading from here –>
If given out this link a few times recently, someone let me know if this works for you! Thanks! ;O)
I have a furby boom from America , but I can’t download the app from the Google Play store .
When I try to download it I keep getting the message its nog availeble in my country . I live in the Netherlands . I have a samusung galaxy tab 3 7 inch.
Can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong ?
Are you able to download it from this link ———–> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hasbro.FurbyBoom&hl=en
Hello,
I purchased the FurbyBoom a couple weeks ago and only after realized that I cannot download the app on my iphone as it is not available in my country store (Trinidad and Tobago).
My question is: is there any way around that? How can I get the app?
Please help.
Thank You!
Are you using an Android device? If so, can you access the Google-play store? —> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hasbro.FurbyBoom&hl=en
My device just wont connect to the furby. Is Galaxy note 2 able to connect? Please advise. Thanks
Well according to Hasbro, the below Android devices are compatible. Are you running OS 2.3.3 or newer?
★Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 & Galaxy Note 2
★Amazon Kindle Fire HD
★Google/Asus Nexus 7
★Motorola Droid RAZR Maxx HD (except model XT926)
★Toys R Us Tabeo
NOTE: Device must be running Android OS 2.3.3 or later
I have two furbys: one teal and one magic black. I got the teal one to work with the app on Samsung tab 2 but I can’t get the black one to work. I also tried with the app on Samsung note 3 and still did not work. Any advise? Thank you.
Both of those devices should be able to run the App, it seems to be hit or miss sometimes with the Android devices. The only tips Hasbro has to offer are:
1. Make sure you are using the correct app – Furby Boom.
2. Make sure Furby is not talking while you are attempting to communicate with your mobile device.
3. Make sure the volume is set to its maximum on the mobile device.
4. If you have a case on your device, make sure the speakers are not blocked. Try removing your case and try again.
5. Place your mobile device 3-5 inches from Furby for best results.
6. Make sure there is minimal background noise, Furby focuses best in a quiet environment.
7. Place your Furby on a flat surface, handling it makes it hard to communicate..
Good Luck!
Hi! I just bought the furby party rockers and I can’t seem to do anything with it. Does the Furby app work with it? I also cannot turn it on after putting the batteries in. I have an IPod 5th gen and was wondering if this device works with the app.
Hey Alex! Theres no on/off switch, just put in batteries and it should just come to life. Party Rockers mouths don’t move like the larger Furbies so the only way to feed them is using the app. Even if you never feed them, they will be ok. You’ll want to use the FurbyBoom app with Party Rockers. The app will work with the IPod 4th generation and newer, so you shouldn’t have any problems! 🙂 Enjoy your Party Rocker!
Hola, comprè para mi hija un furby boom, mi cuenta esta radicada en Colombia y para este pais esta disponible la app Furby, que no funciona para todas las aplicaciones del FurbyBoom, la app FurbyBoom! està disponible en USA. Si mi cuenta es de Colombia, como puedo obtener la app FurbyBoom!???

My daughter changed the language in the Furby Boom app to Japanese, how do I change it back to English?
Hi Dad Jesse, when you open the FurbyBoom app, there is a little Gear icon on the bottom left of the screen, click that, then click Advanced Settings, Then on Change Language. Hope that helps! 🙂
Hola admin, gracias por la respuesta. El link de Apple funciona solo para cuentas de USA. Mi cuenta es de Colombia, luego no me la deja descargar. Que debo hacer??
My wife just purchase a Furby Boom and was going through collecting and hatching eggs and playing the games but it seems like every time she hatches an egg for the Gold room with the Rollercoaster all of the Furbys end up in the bottom left window and she cannot click on any of them. When she only had 1 she could tap on it and it would show her the Furby but now that she has 3-4 in the same window nothing happens when she taps. – Is there a fix for this?
Has anyone run into this before?
Any advise?
Thank you.
FYI she is using an iPad

Yes! It sure does! 🙂
Hi, I want to know if I can change my Furbys language from english to spanish. Thanks!
You can change the language in the FurbyBoom app, when you open the FurbyBoom app, there is a little Gear icon on the bottom left of the screen, click that, then click Advanced Settings, Then on Change Language.
Dear all
We have bought a FurbyBoom on the internet but in Colombia it is not possible to download the FurbyBoom app for Apple device. How and where we can find the apps for Apple device ?
dear admin,
we’re from Belgium and we bought a furby boom via Amazon US. Unfortunaltely, no app for the furby boom in the apple store is available in our country. only the “general” furby app. Any suggestions please?
KR,
Karen
Unfortunately the Boom app is not available in all Countries. Hopefully they will be available in more places soon. I’m researching a way to import the US app to devices in other countries. I will post an article once I get it figured out.
Minha filha ganhou hoje um furby boom, tenho o aplicativo furby boom em um aparelho motorola razr d1 que a principio esta funcionando normalmente, sendo que não consigo de forma alguma escanear o furby já tentei de varias maneiras, estamos decepcionadas, pois, ela esperou tanto, por ele só que não escanea e não tem como brincar….alguém sabe me dizer o que fazer…obrigada
Hi Danubia, Hasbro says the app will work on the “Motorola Droid RAZR Maxx HD (except model XT926)”. Make sure your Razr is the “Max HD”. If it is, then follow the instructions I posted for Joel and it should work. Thanks!

I am so upset: furby boom app is not available in Israel and I have already bought my furby for xmas. Will furby boom interact with the old furby app?:((
Hi,
I received a Furby from a familymember of the Netherlands.
But we live in Spain. Reading from the box it says that it talks Furbies and Dutch.
Is this so? Or if we speak Spanish to it it will start learning Spanish?
Or is there a way to reset/confugur it so it will talk Spanish?
There must be a way to resetthe language and select a new one! Or would Hasbro be the first company tom ake toys for each country???
Please advice/help
Kr,
David
Hi David, I’m actually not sure if a Furbys language can be changed. If there’s a way, I’ve never been able to find information on it. Does anyone know if this is possible?
Hello, We have bought a Furby Boom from Amazon.com and now have it in Spain. I can’t seem to download the app here. I know this is a repeat of previous questions but can anyone help, Christmas is just around the corner!!!!
The furby boom app is NOT compatible with the New kindle fire HD. There is no mic on this.
I’m using a Nextbook will that work??
So I guess if you download the game and the screen stays black its not compatible with the phone??
I have an app star tablet on android 4.0 and when I open the app it says it needs to download another file and fails every time, any ideas on this?
Hi Dan, I’m not sure if the AppStar tablet is compatible, although its not listed as a compatible device with Hasbro (You’re the first to bring this one up!). Does your tablet have a microphone? (it would need one) If there’s no mic, the software that drives a mic could cause issues.
I have a Kurio7. I downloaded the app but then it says it needs to download a file and says try again or home. When I press try again it says ‘download failed could not find resources’ any idea what could be wrong?
Hi Heather, I don’t think the Kurio is compatible with the Furby App. 🙁
Hola, en Peru (America del Sur) la app Furby Boom, no esta disponible. Agradecere me indiquen que solucion tengo y si es posible que se pueda descargar en una Galaxy Note8.
Felices fiestas.
Can I switch ipads with furby boom. My son paired my daughters boom to his ipad. Want to switch boom to her ipad. Is this possible?
He’ll need to pair with his ipad and start over with any games/eggs etc that hes played. Theres not a way to transfer the info. He can just give the Furby the same name he gave it on the other pad.
Santa sent a furby boom, we have downloaded the app and it tells us to go to Settings – Privacy – Microphone – Furby App – Select On. Only problem is that the Furby App doesnt display there to turn it on 🙁
Its probably telling you to go activate your microphone in your iPhone/iPad settings so that it can pair with your Furby.
Hi Greer, i am having problems connecting the ipod touch 4th gen to a furby boom. I am sure it is a 4th gen and so should be compatible. I also saw people recomending to go to iphone settings but i think that only applies to ios 7 and later. Up until that version you didnt have to give permission for apps to use the microphone.
Anybody any other tips? I have tried the hasbro check list, the check list on this site but it still doesnt connect.
I just realised on the 4th gen ipod touch the microphone is actually next to the camera on the back (not the screen side). You can see a very small hole next to it. I imagine that the problem is the app expects the mic to be at the bottom with the speaker. Ill have another go but try some different angles rather than the one the app tells you to try.
Anybody else had any luck with Ipod touch?
Santa just brought a Furby Boom & we now realise that our Go Clever tablet may not be compatible. AARRGGHH!!! We have downloaded the Furby Boom App successfully but like many other users, it will not scan. Tried all morning. Attached up speakers to tablet & still won’t work. What can we do? Is it just not compatible????
I had problems with the Samsung tab 3. App wouldn’t run. Got it working by going into applications – force stop and then clear all the data. Then restart app. Hope it helps ..
I was right – definatley would not recomend using an ipod 4th gen with a furby. You have to hold the phone vertical so the mic on the back picks up the furby sound and so the furby can hear the sound from the ipod speaker… my daughter soon got arm ache and got bored of that..
I got a furby boom for christmas, but it wont scan! on my ipod 4 i have tried everything
I can confirm the app does not work on the galaxy tab 3 7″ , i want my (expletive deleted) money back asap
Hello, I have bought the new Furby, however it is still not possible to download an FurbyBoom app even at AppStore nor at GooglePlay. It seems that the App is not available in our country (the Czech Republic). We hope that you will make available the App on Christmas, unfortunately that was not the case… Please, could you tell us WHEN the App will be available in Czech Republic??!!
As we have an older Furby (with the older App…), there is not so much fun with a new Furby without the App 🙁
Thank you very much,
Nitram
Hi Nitram, I don’t work for Hasbro, so I dont know when the app may be available in the Czech Republic. I have read that Hasbro is working on expanding the app to other countries but I dont know a time frame. Wish I could be more help! 🙁

Hola, mi hijo está Navidad le trajo un Furby boom, tenemos una tabla Samsung Tab 3 y no logro sincronizar el Furby con la app, ya realice los pasos q indican no hable, no haya ruido la distancia y sigue igual, q otra cosa puedo hacer gracias
Hello!
We purchased the Furby Boom and Angry Birds Telepods for Christmas but didn’t realize that we needed a certain tablet. We’re looking for a tablet.
I see that the Asus Google Nexus 7 tablet is compatible for the Furby Boom and Telepods apps. Is this both the first and second generation Google Nexus 7
tablets? Since the Google Nexus 10 is basically the same as the Nexus 7 (except larger), will the Nexus 10 tablet work?
Thanks!
Hi. Purchased 2 Furby Booms for my girls, one works ok, the other keeps emitiing a high pitched beep (definately not Furby talk) every 60 seconds or so.
Have replaced the batteries, and even swapped with the batteries from the functional Furby.
The one that beeps does kinda work, but seems to go to sleep fairly quickly.
Any ideas folks? Refreshed many times, still no joy.
Why can’t I download the furby boom app in malta ? If there a way I can get it ?
I downloaded the app, but every time I try to use the toilet part, or play the football game it freezes and I have to restart my phone
Hi Allyssa, if you are using a phone that isnt on the “compatible” list with Hasbro, it may only partly function the way its supposed to. You could try shutting down the app (so its not open in the background) then reopen it and try again. This may help!
Hi, We brought our daughter a furby boom for xmas and downloaded the app and got it going yesterday for her. When the app turns on it says play and you push play and it goes straight to the shower and when you push home it goes straight to the 1st page where you choose which furby to use.. We can’t get it to go to the home page to chose to play or feed or shower. Is there something we’re doing wrong or something wrong with the app?? Very new to this 🙂
Hi Jaquara, go into the app and delete your Furby’s profile from it, then delete the app itself. Re-install it and start over. It sounds like something has gone wrong. Presuming your device is compatible with the app, this should help.
Thanks will try that 🙂
Bought two furby booms, and two identical tablet devices for xmas. Got one to scan a furby, which is linked up and beig played with, but the other wont scan. App works fine, on its own. Had to hold tablet up a bit on scanning the first, as microphone is at bottom rear, doing same on the next furby with no avail. No covers over microphone. Tried everything. Is there a spot on the furby that has a high volume receiver that I could aim tablets mic at? Put volume to max on tablet too. I know Im doing something right as it worked on other! Please reply, via e mail if possible….or on here if you cant by e mail. JUST REPLY SOON! Pulling hair out on Boxing Day….
Hey Kate! Don’t pull out your hair! Wigs aren’t cheap! 😉
You want the Mic end of your device pointed at the lower belly area of the Furby. Try resetting that pesky Furby (and the app too, totally shut it down so its not running in the background, then reload it and try again.
I downloaded the app today at my work. My three oldest have received a Furby Boom for Christmas. Can all three use the same app? Of course I can’t download the same app multiple times. Just trying to figure out if I need to prepare for a fight when I get home.
The app downloaded fine, just couldn’t post a question in the forum I was reading earlier.
Hi MorherOf5! Yes! In The Furby Boom app can have up to 3 Furbies synced to it. Works out perfect 🙂
hola, mi hija recibio de obsequio de navidad un furby, yo descargue una aplicacion en play store sin ningun problema pero intento descargar furby boom app y me dice q no es compatible con mi pais… como hago para descargarla??? soy de venezuela
Hi Luis, Since the app is not yet available in your country, the only thing you can do is try to “sideload” the app onto your device (see my article about Side-Loading HERE)
Hi I need urgent help!!! I got my daughter a Furby Boom for christmas. I attempted to search for the app at the app store and nothing comes up (she has an iPad mini)…I tried getting it on my S4 and it says the app isn’t available for my country (Trinidad & Tobago) What can I do????? Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated!
Hi Anjee, Since the app is not yet available in your country, the only thing you can do is try to “sideload” the app onto your device (see my article about Side-Loading HERE)
My furby boom was connected to the furby boom app, worked fine yesterday but today is saying that my furby is not bee-toh .. It is, what can I do? Seems like a waste of money if I now cannot connect to the app 🙁
Hi Sophie, there are all kinds of crazy things happening with the Furby app. Theres not much that can be done other than to completely shutdown the app and reload it, delete it and re-install it and /or Reset your Furby.
Hello! My family brought me one of the new furby booms from london to south africa for christmas… they got me the pink, black and blue triangle one…loved it!! But now I am very disappointed… when I went to google play store to download the new furby boom app it said that the app isnt available in my country??? Its the internet, why wouldn’t it be available in south africa…? Please could you guys fix this? I cannot leave a comment in play store without downloading the app.. and i cant download the app because its not available in my country…. please help!
Hi Joey, Since the app is not yet available in your country, the only thing you can do is try to “sideload” the app onto your device (see my article about Side-Loading HERE)
Hopefully Hasbro will be making the app available to more countries soon!
Hello Furby, even you did not respond to my question (maybe you still try to find out where the Czech Republic is :-)) I tried the “sideloading” you recommend in a few answers after my question. Finally I found the .apk file, download it and successfully installed the new Furby application! However, when I run the App, it runs and tells me that I can not download some additional files since I did not purchased the App (“Download failed because you may not have purchased this application”)… I tried to download some other versions of the .apk file available at internet but with the same result 🙁
Do you have some other solutions?
Thank you,
Nitram
I bought a furby boom for my daughter for Christmas, her great aunt kindly at expense payed for a samsung gallaxy tab 3 tablet, can anyone please tell me why it won’t work, the app just freezes on loading!!!! It works ok my sony experia t. ?.. Not happy !!!
The app is “supposed” to work with the Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 & Galaxy Note 2. It seems only natural that it should work on the Tab3 even though Hasbro doesn’t list it. I think the Tab3 came out after the FurbyBoom app (thats why its not listed). The hardware seems to have everything needed to work with the app. Have you tried deleting and re-installing it?
We also gave a Furby and a Samsung Tab 3 for Christmas. Work OK for a couple of hours, but now hangs — black screen little egg at the bottom. Reset the app and the data as suggested, which got us a little further — to the launch video, but hen hung at the same black screen. This is frustrating. OS level is 4.1.2. Any tips — it was a real fav when it worked.
Hi Mom, I’ve had several users tell me that they are having the same problem with their Tab 3’s. I’m not entirely sure that the Tab 3 is compatible, but I would try the “Force shutdown” of the app (so that its not running in the background). Then restart it and see if it works right. If not, completely delete the app and re-install it and see if it works.
Yup — did all that — no success. Sigh. Have one disappointed child.
I have a galaxy s3 mini when will I be able to use the app for my furby boom
Hi Danielle, I wish I had an answer for you!
I have tried everything to get the Furby Boom to scan on my daughters iphone 4 and ipod 5. I have pointed the mic to its tummy, shut it all down, turned up volume, all suggestions made do not work. Can someone tell me what to do??
It was suggested by one of our visitors to turn the phone backwards and point the microphone end at Furby instead of the speaker end. This has apparently had some success with some people.
I live in bogota colombia. I need your help I got 2 furbys boom fir my twins daughters and is not possible to get the app. Is there any way that you can help us to get it. I contact hasbro and they said that the app is not available here and may never be!! How can we get it? I’m very disappointed and sad with this, specially after spending so much money. Pls your help will be very much appreciated! Thks
The only solution I can come up with is for you to try SideLoading the app. I wrote an article on this ->>Click here
I am trying to get the boom app to work on my Samsung tab 3 and nothing, we also tried on my daughters kindle fire, any advice? It does download on the Samsung but not on the kindle, but it won’t run on the Samsung
Hi Nessa, The Tab 3 and the Kindle Fire are both not supported by the Furby app. 🙁 I’m not sure why, but I hope Hasbro is able to make those devices compatible in the near future!
Hi, if asus nexus7 works, other asus devices should work but having issues connecting to me173x (memo pad hd7) what do we do, it connects to htc one phone.. any advise would be appreciated
The Furby Boom App cannot be downloaded in Malta. Can you please advise when the application will be available? Thanks
The furby boom app does not work with nextbook8″ tablet all you get is a small bubble with the pic of your furby in it and the rest of the screen in black. also the app doen not work on the galaxy tab 3 7″ will not even take you to the start screen gets stuck even before it starts. Installed and uninstalled many times will not work
Boom App installs and runs fine on ASUS MeMo Pad HD 7 that my daughter got for Christmas with her Furby Boom, but the thing will NOT scan it. Just keeps saying to retry. I feel like we’ve tried all of the tricks and suggestions (out of case, slightly elevate w/ speaker pointed at belly, varying distances, forced App shutdown, volume maxed, furby reset, latest system update for tablet). don’t know what else to do…are the App developers working on ay fixes?
Have you tried pointing the microphone end towards the Furby instead of the speaker end? Some members have had luck doing that! 🙂
HI! I have a festive sweater furby boom and the eyes don’t always match the things she is saying. Should I be worried about this?
Hola quiciera ayuda, le compre a mi hija un furby en este AÑO EL 2013 y tengo un ipad 2, bajamos la aplicacion pero no funcionan todas las cosas.
lo principal el traductor no funcuiona, no calibra con el furby y algunasw cosas no funcionan, como algunas comidas y bebidas aaahh y el cambiador de voz taMPOCO
Hello Mauricio Duran, Reboot your iPad and try it, if it still isnt working correctly then Delete the app from your iPad and re-install it. It seems like something did not install properly. Lastly You need to give the app access to your microphone. (Settings – Privacy – Microphone – Furby Boom App – Select On)
We bought our furby boom in Hong Kong. We’re from the Philippines and we’re not sure if the language is furbish or mandarin. We chose English language in the furby boom app. Will it automatically speak in English?tnx
Im not sure if the Furby will speak English, but the writing in the app will.
My daughters got Furby booms and The Tablet pc by Chromo which uses android 4.1.1. The furby worked for a while and is working for one of my daughters the other one can get hers to scan but then the app gets stuck with a little circle at the top and a picture of her Furby. We have deleted that app and reloaded it a couple of times but the same things keep happening. Any advice?
I have two upset children after getting furby books
For Christmas and thinking they could use them where their new asus memo pad tablets, to find
That they’re not compatible. It doesn’t say anywhere on the box what tablets can be used it only states the
App can be downloaded from the google
Play store. I am not too
Happy either as my children cannot play with them
Properly and the shop won’t take
Them back because they’ve had batteries installed.
Can you tell me if/when they’ll be supported by other tablets. I really wouldn’t recommend
Them at all right now. They’re a lot of money when they can’t be used properly
I cant seem to find the furby boom app for my ipad. I type furby boom in the searchbar but nothing Appears . Can you pleasehelp me.
In which countries is the furby boom app available? I’m from El Salvador
I’ve never seen a list from Hasbro of which Countries can get the app. It is something they should post though for sure!
My daughter got a furby for Christmas and tried to scan to her Samsung tab 2 but it doesn’t connect. Why is this happening when I am following all the correct things that have been said on this link. And if this is Been happening a lot why hasnt Hasbro done something about this problem??
I have a Motorola RAZR M with Android version 4.1.2 The Furby Boom connects as I can see the picture come up, but the rest of the screen is black, and just stays that way. Could that be because the Motorola RAZR Maxx is supported and not the RAZR M? I have tried stopping and restarting the app. I have also uninstalled and re-installed the app.
Hi Karen, You are exactly right, there is support for the RAZR Maxx HD, but not for the RAZR M. ;(
Hi my daughter has a Sony Xperia micro model number ST23i running android 4.0.4.
We have downloaded the app which starts fine and loads ect even scans Furby Boom but then wont do anything else as the pixels ect break up can anyone help please?
Thanks
Hey Ange! The version of Android you are running is good, but the device is not compatible. A lot of times there are devices that can install the app and will will even work (a little) then crashes.
When i try to open my Furby Boom app it says another device needs to be downloaded and when i click continue it says : The additional file for Furby Boom could not be downloaded. Press retry to try again or cancel to exit program. it says it can’t find the resources.
Howdy Linzi, That message usually means that the phone/tablet you are using is not compatible.
I bought my daughter a furby, tried installing the app only to find out it doesn’t work in the Caribbean. Would this be changing any time soon? There should have been a listing of the countries able to use the app at the various sales outlets. I just bounced up your site trying to find out what to do next.
Thanks
Hi Dee, You’re right, there should be a list of countries that have support for the Furby apps. To my knowledge, Hasbro has not made any announcements yet about extending the apps to other countries, but were all hoping its soon!
I am completely disgusted by hasbro and their lack of information when purchasing a furby boom!!! i was under the impression if the android tablet supported the app it would work with the furby but obviously not! 2 very disappointed girls on christmas day!! number 1 present! number one rip off more like!!!!
I have a samsung galaxy 3 tablet. Downloaded the furby boom app on Dec. 25th and succesfully used it twice that day. However, the app will no longer open. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the app several times. Also restarted the tablet as well. Any suggestions?
Hi Donna, its possible that some files remain behind when you remove the app. Delete it again and make sure it is not running the the background (force shut down). After its gone, shut down your device , wait about 30-45 seconds at least then turn it back on and try the re-install.
I have a Samsung Galaxy 4. I cannot connect our furby boom. 🙁 My husband connected his iPhone 4 once….after that, nothing. We are very sad. We also tried resetting. That wasn’t successful. Any ideas?
I’m not sure why but the Galaxy 4 isn’t in the list of compatible devices for the Furby App. There have been a lot of issues with many devices being incompatible for use with the app, it’s a super bummer and I truly hope Hasbro develops compatible apps for more devices soon.
I have a Lenovo tablet, so it wont work with this device?
Some tablets seem to work with the Furby app, even when they aren’t listed on the Hasbro “Compatible list”. The only way to know for sure is to try it out. Install it on your tablet and see if it installs and runs properly. If you haven’t purchased a Furby yet, take your tablet to a toy store and try to sync with it. Maybe one of our visitors have tried this particular tablet and can tell us if it worked?
Ok so looking through this, I see one other comment about a high pitched sound coming from the tablet. My daughter has the Nabi 2 tablet now running 4.1.1 through their update. I also have a Asus Transformer which both do the same thing with the high pitch sound. I can fix the sound problem by going into the settings when the app first starts up and adjusting the communications setting all the way down, however doing so I can not seem to get the furby to recognize the app now. The Nabi’s microphone is on the bottom as the Asus’s microphone is on the side (well top when rotated) I know these are not on the compatibility list, but is there any word on if there will be an update to allow more devices?? If not anyway to actually contact Hasbro themselves (like this will probably not resolve anything either) Any ideas or suggestions I definitely welcome them as the sound is annoying…. Thanks in advance
Thank you!
I am trying to connect my daughters new furby boom to the furby boom app and when my iPhone and iPad try scanning the furby it can not find the furby. We have tried deleting the app and reinstalling it, taking the batteries out of furby, resetting furby… Everything we can think of. When we are attempting to connect we are in a completely quiet room, the devices volume is at the highest setting, I checked to make sure the microphone on the iOS devices is one, we leave furby on a flat surface And have literally tried connecting with our iPhone and iPad on every possible place on the furby, and have tried hundreds of times with the iPad/iPhone between 1-10 inches away and can not get any connection what so ever!!!! Please help!
the furby boom app will scan my sisters fury boom, but not mine!
Hi i cant seem to get the furby boom app on the kurio 7 to work. Is it compatible.
I just today purchaced a leveno A1000L it runs the android OS the app downloaded fine, darn furby boom wont scan?? My daughter and I am beyond upset!!! It wont work on my husbands ipad either?? Any help would be appreciated!!
hey my daughter had a furby boom for her birthday yesterday and her aunty set it up to her iphone, my daughter has a samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 and the furby will not connect at all I told her aunty to uninstall the furby app to see if that will work it hasn’t, is the furby compatable with my daughters device please help!
My GS3 seems to only work with the Furby if it is turned sideways which makes for playing difficult. Also it seems to just be a black screen on my Nextbook 8, does that mean it is an unsupported device? The personality keeps changing from male to female, a lot, is that normal? I really hope these issues are something that can be fixed so my 5yo won’t be disappointed in her Christmas toy. When did Bluetooth come out? Think maybe that would have worked better?
Hope someone can give me a better understanding as to WHY the furby boom app is working fine on an old HTC phone that has android compatibility but will not work on a new Nextbook tablet with android compatibility. Any suggestions??
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I cannot scan the Furby Boom. Any suggestions?
Hola. Tengo un Furby boom que compré en Estados Unidos. Ya instale la aplicación con una cuenta de iTunes de EUA. La aplicación está en español. Será posible cambiar el idioma del Furby también a español? Cómo lo hago?
De antemano muchas gracias y esperó su respuesta.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.70 and it will not scan new furby boom, any suggestions?
I bought furby boom! ehrn was in usa. Now cant install in my local country Lithuania from Playstore. If i follow manually link i find the app but Error: This item cannot be installed in your device country. On daughter galaxy tab 10.1 error: not compatible device.
Furby boom is mute. Lights work and motion, but no sound. WE took off fur and no broken wires. Help!
Hi, I have the same problem, furby boom is mute….what to do?
Hi, i was wondering if Hasbro will let some other countries, download the Furby Boom App. My daughter can´t play with it because it won´t let us download it.
Una verdadera lástima que no se pueda usar el furby boom en Latinoamérica, ojalá entiendan que ya muchos niños desean jugar con el muñequito y necesitan las app. Primero lo comercial, como siempre, un fiasco!!!
have the samsung galaxy 3 cell phone and the app works about 1 out of 10 times.says needs to be 10 cm it missed.do they not work good with cell phones
Hi I got my daughter a furby boom she has a Samsung tab2 7″ the app has downloaded but can’t find it when we scan do you know if this tablet works thanks .
Hi just an update . I’ve done it yes you read that right I’ve DONE it yay it’s only taken me a week . Samsung tab 2 does work its just finding the right spot to point the tablet at. Its even hard when you play the game just try and keep the furby and tablet 10cm apart . Good look guys x 🙂
Jezr, Hasbro says only the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is compatible, the Tab 2 7″ isn’t on their list.
Hi just seen your comment back that it only works on samsung tab 2 10.1 this is wrong as I said my daughter has a 7″ and works fine x
ive done everything ive read to do and still this thing is not connecting to my iphone5 i have about given up with it . why do they make such a bad toy that kids want? what else could i do to make this thing work
?
Hi Marcusf03, It should work without a hitch on the Iphone 5. Make sure the microphone end of the phone is pointed at the Furby not the speaker end and try again!
We got a Furby boom from a friend who was bored of it and we download the furby boom app from Google Play store to my Tablet (Lenovo,idea A2107AF with Android version 4.0.3) but we found that the tablet is unable to scann the furby, we had tried all the recommendations we found in this page but still we have no positive results. Do you please have some suggestions?
Thanks
The Lenovo pad apparently isn’t compatible with the Furby App.
We downloaded it it scanned but when it loads all I get is a black screen with a circle in the left hand side that has my furby in it but wont let me see anything in the app. Then says my furby is not close enough but its sitting right next to it… please help:(
Hi Ashley, it sounds like you’re using a tablet or phone that isn’t compatible with the Furby app.
My daughter has the nextbook 8 tablet
Does the app work on her Nextbook 8 tablet?
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7″ P3100 ( 3g) and I can get the Furby boom app to work on it, however my friend has got the P3110 ( wifi only) and the app doesn’t. Mine is running android 4.0.3 and hers is 4.1.1 . It keeps saying the app is not available in her country yet . I am in the UK and she is in Tenerife (Spain). The list says the app is available in Spain. Any advice is greatfully recieved
Hi Marc, The app is available in the UK but not in Spain. Hopefully Hasbro will make it available in Spain in the near future.
Hi,
Yesterday my son got Furby 2012 for the NY. Please tell us the solution for getting the application for Iphone or Ipad as we live in Macedonia and the app is not available in our country. He is crying all the time and is very dissapointed.
Thanks for the response
Hi Biljana, I’m sorry to say that Hasbro has not made the app available in Macedonia yet. At this time they have not released any information about when it might be available there.
Hi!
We’re about to purchase a tablet and it should be co-operating with my daughter’s new Furby. So I’m wondering if Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 will work with it? Or some other android-tablet, for example Fujitsu ST M532 Tab with Android 4.0? I wouldn’t like to purchase a tablet NOT compatible with Furby.
If we get a new phone for my daughter, is Samsung Galaxy Trend going to be OK with Furby?
Hi Robe, heres a list of Android devices that Hasbro says are compatible with the Apps:
* Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 & Galaxy Note 2
* Amazon Kindle Fire HD Gen 1 and 2 (Gen 3 is NOT compatible because it lacks a microphone)
* Google/Asus Nexus 7
* Motorola Droid RAZR Maxx HD (except model XT926)
* Toys R Us Tabeo
NOTE: Device must be running Android OS 2.3.3 or later
My sister recieved a furby for Christmas and started using the app on my mums phone then we downloaded the app on the family iPad so she didn’t have to use my mums phone. The only thing was there was no camera on the iPad so we used my mums phone to scan a code to receive a egg. But is there a way to update the furby app so we can have the egg on the iPad?
Emily, as far as we can tell, the data saved on one device for Furby Boom cannot be transferred to another device. You must start collecting all over again. My daughter has a large egg collection on my iPhone4 and has started a second collection on her IPhone 3 now that we downloaded the app there.
HI, I have a Samsung Galaxy tab 2 7.0, the app appears to work fine on the device but no matter what I try it will not connect. Other devices contect to it fine Just mine that wont.. any advice or help please…. Heidi BOO HOO 🙁
Hi Heidi Boo Boo, Hasbro says the app is only supported on the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 but no other Galaxy tabs for some reason.
Hi I’ve had the same thing as you for a week . make sure you are using the Mic at the top of tablet not the speakers on bottom . Room need to be quite and hold about 10cm away but it does work . We too was on a Samsung tab 2 7″ x
The Furby Boom App cannot be downloaded in Malta. Can you please advise when the application will be available? Thanks!
Hi Simon, I wish I could, Hasbro hasn’t released any information on when they may be adding support for the furby apps in any other countries.
Hi! I have connected my Furby (Bee-Boo) to the app and everything had been OK, till it changed into a “man”. Now it’s back to another personality, but since this change, it does not connect to Furby Boom. Whenever I try to connect to the saved game, it says “this furby is not BeeBoo!” What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
Hallo,
versuche die App auf unser iPod zu laden. Leider ohne Erfolg. Es heißt immer: es ist eine neuere iPod Software erforderlich. Laut iTunes sind wir aber auf dem neuesten Stand. Hilfe !!!!!
Furby wird für meine Tochter langweilig.
My daughters has a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. She got a Furby Boom for Christmas. She downloaded the Furby Boom app from Google Play. Since she downloaded the app (Christmas day), she has only been able to get it to open twice. Every other time it locks up about 6 seconds into opening. We have “force stopped” the app, restarted the tablet, etc… Nothing seems to work. Is there an update coming out to fix this problem?
How I can change the langue English to Spanish , I would like to Furby talk in Spanish… thanks
My daughter has a brand new Nextbook 4gb that runs on Android OS 4.1. For some reason we are having problems trying to get it to download the furby boom app, keeps coming up with an error. Help please !!! we are in New Zealand.

Is Furby Boom Compatible with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS
Hi. I have connected my furby boom to my iPhone since my purchase. I really hope to switch it to my IPad as I has been draining my phone’s battery fast. Wonder is it possible to retain the data after I switch devices?
Hi, I don’t know what happened but furby boom is not talking anymore 🙁 he is reacting, his lips move, everything is normal……except that he can’t talk…….. Pls advise what to do
My cousin bought from the Philippines a Furby Boom for me last October 2013. She was able to give it to me in Australia last Christmas 2013. I was able to download the Furby Boom App in an IPad & IPad Mini but both would not scan my Furby Boom. I tried un-installing & re-installing in both devices but both would still not Scan. My Furby Boom has not been fed, bathed and is unhappy. Please help.
Hi my son has the furby boom app on his tablet (hp slate)and its working fine however its his birthday on 30th jan and he would love a furby boom ive seen then for £65 in argos. I wanted to know if I got him the furby boom it would definitely work with the app because I know he would be gutted if it didn’t work with the app.
It would be risky because the HP Slate isn’t listed as compatible with Hasbro. It may work, but there’s also a good chance it wont.
My daughter got the Furby Boom for Christmas and had loaded the app onto her Samsung Galaxy tab2 7.0. She was using it fine till a week ago it would not scan the furby. I tried reloading the app with no success. My question is why could she get it and then all a sudden it not work.??
My daughter got a Kindle Fire HD for Christmas and a Furby Boom for her Birthday just last Saturday. The App downloaded just fine, but, the sound is totally messed up. About every 10 seconds or so, it snaps loud and soft, loud and soft for a couple seconds, then it stops. This is ongoing. Anything I can do to get this to stop?
Mandy mine is the same. It has come up with ‘this is not day boo! please rescan or skip’ but if you skip you can still connect and feed etc but unable to hatch or create eggs. Very fustrating as it was working fine. I have even pressed the green refresh button underneath but no luck please help!!
My furby won’t scan,what should I do
Bonjour,
J ai fait venir du Canada un furby boom pour ma fille car il parlait français . Malheureusement je n arrive pas à télécharger l’application sur apple pourtant j’ai un ipad touch 4 avec iOS 7 mais je n’arrive même pas a voir l appli sur apple store ! Qu’est ce que je peux faire pour le télécharger ? Est tout simplement possible pour la France ?
Merci de votre aide
cant believe it works with my cheap Chinese teclast tablet p85 but does not work with my asus transformer 201 ….thats a joke
We bought two Furby Booms for my daughters. One linked up to the Samsung Tab 2 tablet but the other wouldn’t. I then download the software again….and now neither of them work. Scanned over 50 times and no luck. I then called Customer Services and they tell me that it’s only compaitble with the 10inch not the 7inch tablets. Why?! She told me that I should have checked before buying it….it says in small print on the box that I should have! Anyway, looking at it’s website it says it is compatible but not which size! Hasbro – you need to get your facts right on the website!
Hi! My daughter accidentally changed the language of our Furby Boom app for iphone. She switched it to Spanish and now I can’t figure out how to change it back to English. Could I get some help please?
hi, i have a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini tab, i have downloaded the furby boom app but it crashes instantly on start-up. Is this because it is not compatible with the mini tab?
My ipad broke and the furby app was on it. Can I get my stuff back on my new one
Only if you had your ipad backed up on iTunes.
My daughter has a furby. My husband shook it and I refreshed it and fixed it back. Now it will not be recognized as the correct furby by the app. It has eggs but I can’t get them because the app says it’s the wrong furby when it’s the correct furby. How can I fix it?
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help… We have a furby boom bought for my 7year old daughter,but every time ii try and scan it from my ipad mini it won’t find it. I have tried over 100times don’t know what to do now.
Hi. Here’s hoping you can help! My daughter has been busily building up her Furbling city. She had about 35 and…she came to me today to show me that they’d all disappeared. Granted, she has some learning difficulties and cannot read but is there anything she could have pressed to do this? If so, can we get them back? Fingers crossed as she is distraught!
Thank you.
Hi, my Furby Boom won’t connect to the app. It did before, and I don’t know what to do anymore. It hasn’t connected for maybe… 2 or 3 months now. Any recommendations on what to do? ( I could always try re-scanning and starting over, but I don’t really want to, though… ) Thanks a bunch!
I found a simple solution for the ‘ Furby Boom app not available in your country’ Android problem:
Download ‘Psiphon’ in the Google Play store, install it and open it, choose browser mode and go to Google Play website and search and install Furby Boom app, it may prompt for your phonenumber to verify identity, because it believes you are located in the USA now 😉 Good luck, and oh yes, if you fail to scan the furby in the boom app, try holding the tablet or phone mic close to the furby boom and tickle it to make sound, while scanning..
Thank you for the Tips Koen!

Hello, I tried scanning my Furby Boom on the app.
I didn’t get far…I’m still trying to get it to learn it’s name. I have tried everything like doing the 10 cm thing, hovering it over the device, putting it in the air, Everything…
I have tried at least about 50-60 times.
It’s just not picking up!
Could someone please help me?
Thanks.

Buenas tardes: mi hija compro un furby de los pequeños estamos en Colombia, y despues de bajar la aplicacion en un iphone4 en un 5 y en un ipad mini… No lo puedo scanear y no consigo un contacto de servicio al cliente de hasbro en colombia. Alguien me puede ayudar?
If anyone needs the app but is not in the US a simple work around is to change your location in iTunes and remove your credit card. Use any US address with zip code and you can now access the US store. Usually you need a US based credit card but as the Furby Boom App is free this doesn’t pose any problems. When you’re done just edit your iTunes details back.
Thank you for sharing!!

How can change language on furby
I have bought a furbling and am trying to scan it with my iPhone 4 after numerous attempts in a silent room following tips to hold device up etc still no joy.
Can you help?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 and it connects to both of my furby booms just fine. That is when the program actually loads. I have found placing the furby and the device on a flat surface like a table helps and do not put the device to close to the furby keep it about 2 inches away. In case anyone is wondering I have the peacock pattern and the christmas pattern.
El furby boom es compatible con cualquier tablet?
La mia es Android 4.4.2 Kit kat pero no funciona a la app. Que sucede???
Bought the Furby Boom in England last year, live in Switzerland and app only became available here this month! Was already disappointed about this, now found out it doesn’t work with HP slate 7. App loads and starts fine (Android 4.1.1), just won’t connect when scanning. Have tried everything suggested numerous times. Works fine on my Galaxy S2 but I can’t leave this with my daughter!!
Come on Hasbro, you expect to sell millions of these for the upcoming Christmas so sort out the issue with the Android/iOS supported devices.
Furby Boom won’t scan. Looked up and tried every suggestion. Our Furby Boom is a year old. Right after getting it we got the app on my android tablet. Since then got an IPad, which we used it on too. Hatched lots of eggs, got furblings, last thing it said was something about a golden egg. IPad cracked screen – recently got fixed. Furby was not scanning with cracked/broken screen. So now, all fixed up screen and it still will not scan no matter where I put it, how I hold it up slightly, or whatever. I deleted and reinstalled the app. No help there. Hit reset button on little Furby. Nope. I DO have Furby Boom and it DID work before, just not now. Any ideas? Oh and YES we did make sure microphone was set to on under settings/privacy tab with the Furby App. So – please tell me something new to try? TY in advance!
My daughters Sony tablet will not work with the furby boom any ideas

My daughter had a furby for her birthday, we added it to the ipad app and my son then had one which we also added to the app. My daughters has now cloned with my sons, it has taken the same name etc. We can not get eggs now from my daughters as it thinks it is toto not Lau- dah. Can you help??
They are the new furby crystal series.
My daughter is now very upset.
Hi Charmian, I’ve heard of this happening, but I’ve never had this happen to me before. You may be able to go into the settings in the game and change the “user” back. Or at least change the Furbys name. Check out this video for an example –> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctPHQBtgvbU start at 2:00. Hope this helps!
Hola mi hijo tiene el furby boom ( favorito blue special edition) y quiero saber: se le puede bajar el volumen?
Estaré atenta a sus respuestas.
Hello! Unfortunately for a lot of parents, there is no volume control on Furbies, You can only hope that your child plays with Furby in another room! lol
We have the app on an ipad. Since we have done the recent update to the app and the ipad software update, all the eggs and furblings have disappeared. Is there any way to get them back?
Hi! Could you tell me if Asus memopad HD 7 is compatible with Furby Boom? We purchased one a week ago but it won’t scan Furby Boom. The app is running fine but we would like to play with Furby. We tried every suggested method to make it work, but it just won’t scan. At Google Play they say they expanded the list of compatible devices. Asus runs the latest version of Android. Is there any chance we could make it scan our Furby? Thanks!

My daughter’s egg carton is full. When I hit the “Tap here for more ways to get eggs,” A message pops up stating “Your egg carton is full!” Underneath it says “Tap here to get an egg from a virtual friend.” When I go to click “Ok”, nothing happens….the music continues but there is no advancement on the screen, like it’s frozen or something? What should happen and is there a way to resolve this? I tried restarting the Galaxy Tablet, with no success. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
