A listing differentiating between the shows androids (humanoid robot or other humanoid) and robots as such can be found on the Annedroids Fandom Wiki, as of November 2024, here.[4]

The main Wikipedia article links summarizes the episodes by season and links to a "List of Annedroids episodes."[5]

The "androids" are listed in the Wikipedia article as:

Hand: "First, strongest and largest of Anne's androids, Hand is a three-legged construct with an arm ending with a large articulated clamp and a smaller one. She is able to lift a car and hold it still for a while."
Eyes: "Second, fastest and smallest of Anne's androids, Eyes is a camera equipped with a telescope, a three-objective microscope and binoculars. It moves thanks to a single wheel and has four short articulated arms to keep its balance."
Pal: "Third, most human-like and most sophisticated of Anne's androids, Pal is very agile and a fast runner. Pal always asks questions, as Pal is the only android with speech, and Pal is very friendly"
Fangs, the guard dog: "Fourth [of] Anne's android, Fangs behaves like an actual dog. Fangs is equipped with stinky spray, spikes, and an expandable body."[6]
