My friend just started bridge and is being taught under SAYC. I showed her BBO's Robot rental which she loved BUT she doesn't understand the 2/1 bidding system and is unable to complete the bidding process. I CAN'T FIND WHERE TO CHANGE HER ROBOT FROM 2/1 TO SAYAC. Please help me help her continue to use BBO.

I suspect it is not possible, but probably that is just as well.
I would not recommend anyone starting bridge to play with a Robot rather than with a human teacher or mentor.
But above all, SAYC is a weird version of the obsolete and mediocre Standard American system, why on earth should anyone teach it in 2025?
Even GiB 2/1 is outdated (and too difficult for a beginner) but at least it works reasonably well overall.

I think if you join BBO+ you can select different robot systems when you open a table.
