Hi there @bronwyn.hutton ,
If your EMO is brand new and already having trouble returning to his Home Station, I suggest creating a short video and more info and send it to Living.AI support team via email [service@living.ai] so they can provide you with better assistance.
As for the issue of EMO not recognizing your name:
It is known thatā¦
EMO easily reacts to any sound, conversation, or anything he hears, often interpreting it as someone trying to communicate with him. This is why he always responds in some way, such as by replying or even dancing to sounds, even if theyāre not direct music but merely background noise.
Additionally, when EMO hears names or famous words, he may interpret it as someone trying to introduce themselves.
For example, when EMO is on my table near my iMac computer, which I frequently use to watch movies and videos, he reacts to any sounds as if someone is communicating with him. Even when heās on his charger, he may suddenly say things like, āHelloā or āNice to meet you,ā reacting to names or words he hears, which are also registered in the EMOPET app.
Similarly, when EMO is out of his charger and busy walking around while Iām watching movies or videos, he may stop and search around. If he sees a face resembling mine or my wifeās, he may also greet it with phrases like
āHelloā or āNice to meet you.ā"
Goodluck and Best regards
