I've read it's not possible for iOS, but it is possible to control more than 1 ball at a time for android. But nothing about using 2 or more balls with 2 or more devices in the same area.

We'd love to use 3-5 of them in the same area with 3-5 android devices controlling 1 ball apiece.

I take it, if you had 3 different versions of your app, one on each device, will they conflict with one another? I doubt you could see a character on each of the other balls you aren't controlling. But if they'd still work in the same space we might still go for it.

Yes, it is possible. Are you trying to do something like the game Tag?

  • Epic guys, thanks! We're looking to make more of a racing/obstacle competition with half a dozen+ at large events. With a course and stuff. – user1108224 Aug 14 '13 at 22:50
  • If you're looking for a good multiplayer library, we used PlayPhone for our Tag game. The multiplayer game in TwoPhonesOneBall isn't as stable as PlayPhone's. It will work though. – Michael DePhillips Aug 28 '13 at 21:25

Look though the SDK and you'll come across: https://github.com/orbotix/Sphero-Android-SDK/tree/master/samples/TwoPhonesOneBall
