  • Broke my awning

    This app should be removed or Carefree should be held liable for the damage to the awning. App apparently over extended awning and burned the motor. Shame on Carefree for being so irresponsible as to keep this app active!
  • Carefree BT app

    Awesome app. I’d give it a 5 star rating if the screen background wasn’t the same colour as the lettering in the Retract/Extend fields. It’s too dark to read, doesn’t change to a yellow font until you select an option.
  • Won’t connect

    I really wanted to be able to dim the lights. I so wanted this to work. I got it to connect once, asked to update firmware and froze up. Never could connect again. I have no idea if it’s operating error or the app.
    Too bad either way…
  • Liked it until Firmware Update

    I opened the app, it asked me for a firmware update. The update stopped at 23%, turned the lights on and then disabled everything to do with the awning. I can’t more then awning in or out and can’t turn the lights off. The buttons on the inside of the RV no longer work either. Not sure what to do, kinda stuck. Worked great up till this point. Now It’s dead.

  • Used to work

    Why oh why doesn’t this app work? Very sad that the carefree folks don’t keep up with product updates. In this day, app updates are important not only for security but for safety. Please update.
  • Zero stars if I could.

    After months of no connection the app update now lets it connect! However, on ios14 with iphone 11 I can no longer close the app(by swiping up) without it causing the awning to retract. After a while, something causes the app to think I’ve turn off the light. The only workaround is to completely crash close the app to stop it randomly doing stuff. No longer trust it.

    Update 1 year later.
    Never and support from Carefree. No help at all. The app is still rubbish with the fine adjustments available sometimes and not others.
    Wouldn’t recommend carefree products on the basis of this lack of product support.

  • iPhone 12

    Cant close the app without the awning starting up and either over extending or starting to roll itself up.
    Most of the time it just simply over extends and stretches the awning.
    Needs fixing before I would recommend using it..
  • App is not working, unable to pair.

    The app keeps stating there is no awning found.
  • Please Update This App

    This app worked great before I got a new iPhone. Now the awning cannot be found. I’ve checked Bluetooth. Nothing. I noticed it’s been over a year since an app update.
  • Useless app

    This app worked the day we picked up our van and has not worked since. After repeated attempts at deleting/reloading the app, it now doesn’t even connect to our awning.

    This app is totally useless.
