The left panel sets both the robot's gaits and directions and send combined command, such as "walk left" and "trot forward". The robot will only move if an initial gait and direction are selected. The "step" has no direction, and "backward" has left and right directions. The pause button "||" will pause the robot's motion and turn off the servos, so that you can rotate the joints to any angle. The "Turbo" button ( ) turns on/off the gyro, a sensor to detect the robot's body orientation. Turning it on will make the robot keep adjusting to body angles, and will know when it's upside down. Turning it off will reduce calculation and make it walk faster and more stable.
The built-in postures and behaviors can be triggered by pressing the buttons. Don't press the button too frequently and repeatedly. Allow some time for the robot to finish its current tasks.
Press and hold the button and drag to change the button position.

You can send the skill file to your phone using Messenger or email and open the file on the phone using the Petoi App. A button will be created for the new skill; you can see it when you open the control panel.
The SkillLibrary folder in Github contains new skills for the OpenCat robot, which can be used for your reference. You can use your mobile browser to access the GitHub page of the OpenCat project, open the skill file (such as Bittle_Fold.md), select the "Code" tab, and share it with Petoi Mobile App(make sure the mobile app is connected to your Petoi robot first), as shown in the figures below. Then you can execute this skill by pressing the newly created command button.
You are welcome to create your new skills(using the Skill Composer or Modifying the source code) and share them by sending merge requests to this folder.
The group command feature lets you chain multiple commands together and play them in sequence.
After pressing the Create Group Command button, you can see the following interface:
