Leave a Review RYSE
Solid hardware, flaky software
The hardware is easy to install and of great quality. Alas the weakness of Ryse is its software. Oftentimes one or two of my three SmartShade blinds don’t react when an Home Automation event occurs. I have to reselect the same scene several times to have all the blinds cooperate. And as I’m writing this, one of the SmartShades has just disappeared from the Ryse app, while the other ones still work fine via SmartBridge. Pretty disappointing.Show lesshoot not sweat
You need a smart bridge
The recent my blinds would not connect to Alexa or Google or Siri was because you need to purchase a $50additional device from their website. Call the Smart bridge and that’ll get you to use voice commands as well as open and close them from anywhere in the world not just be a Bluetooth but through the Internet, you can be across the world and open and closer blinds yourself.
Very happy very satisfied this more system technically would cost you a lot more money if you bought it from anywhere else or people that install blinds with sell it for quadruple the price so you get a good dealShow lessEman124214
Still very buggy
Almost no improvements in two years! App is still not refreshing the shade status automatically upon opening the app (seriously..??), and it keeps forgetting random shade units (I have six, connected via their bridge) on a regular basis, so I have to re-add the affected ones and restore the automation again and again. I can see driver details, but no way to tell if they're the latest or enforce checking for updates. My window shade automation works about 90% of the time, why is it so hard to get it to be stable and reliable??Show lessApfelmaennchen
