First, I am a tech savvy person and this took me about 20 minutes to set up. Problems galore connecting to WiFi. Setup should be easier but it’s not. On top of it they make you create an account to set this all up, another 5 minutes. Why do I need an account to check the charge on my battery using phone. I should be able to link the charger to the app and view my battery. Sounds easy, right? Finally after getting it up and running it works.....OK. The app overlaps itself at the bottom of the screen (Words over Icons) constantly disconnects from the Internet when I pull the app back up after closing it. Keeps saying having trouble connecting ....blah blah...if you’re connected to corporate network...blah blah. The app won’t refresh the % charged unless you back up to the main screen and renter the charger status. Why can’t I swipe down on the screen to refresh like EVERY other app does?
I will give you some setup pointers.
Do it near your router, make sure your phone is on 2.4 bandwidth. This unit will not pickup on 5 ghz, don’t connect the battery until after your connected to WiFi. I paid $69.98 for my unit because I want to monitor a vehicle I don’t drive very often. For that price the unit should work correctly. Unfortunately I don’t think this unit is worth that price with the current issues. I will probably return it and just buy a battery tender for $20. I thought this would a cool thing to have and be handy but for me it doesn’t meet my expectations.
