  • Not usable on an iPhone X

    It’s the first time I have ever encountered an iOS app where you can’t close or get past the “on-boarding” or initial tutorial screens. The last screen has a very small “X” in the top right corner - right under the battery level indicator - that no matter how hard you try, it cannot be accessed. My suggestion would be to Q/A this app on an iPhone X and re-submit to the App Store. As for the rest of the app, well I have no idea. Can’t get to it. C’mon Petzl ! You can do better.

  • iPhone X disaster

    Did anyone bother to test this on the iPhone X? You can't even close the onboarding slide flow because the "X" to close it is to high and falls behind the upper right signal/battery icons.

    Additionally, the you can't click between the "Petzl" and "My Profiles" tabs at the top of the Profiles page. I'm guessing this in another iPhone X isssue because the Petzl logo in the upper right is behind the signal/battery icons again.

    Come on, these issues should be caught before pushing it to the app store.

  • Will not re-pair with iPhone

    I removed the headlamp from my app and now it will not reconnect. It connected to my iPad, but will not reconnect to iPhone. Makes the headlamp a bit useless, because I can no longer change on the go (who brings an iPad where you need a headlamp).

    Hello, can you remove the headlamp from your iPhone general bluetooth settings and restart the pairing process through the app ? Best regards
  • Great app!

    Paired my petzl headlamp in about 5 seconds. The settings are easy to use and feels like a well made product. Thanks!
  • Buggy but works

    It crashes ever time I go live. When I try to create a custom profile, it frequently crashes and fails to save.

    But I was able to program my light, and I love my Reactik+.
  • Rough around the edges

    Like the concept, interface, and find the functionality basically there. But there are enough glitches to make using the app frustrating and confusing (i've only played with it for an hour so far, so maybe I'll get the hang of it with more time, but I think it shouldn't take that long for something this basic). Glitches include: when changing settings in a profile, sometimes they won't be reflected when looking at the profile again without force quitting and restarting the app; sometimes certain elements of the interface will become overlapped. More generally, there is no documentation and the differences between the beam patterns and the different profiles it's not always that obvious.
