Change it back.
Since the EchoSmart app changed to Lippert OneControl the signal to my Curt BlueTooth brake controller drops signal constantly.
I had my brakes setup perfectly and all was working great then the I was forced to use the Lippert app.
I’m sorry Lippert but your app sucks and now I’m spending $1200 to have an electric brake controller installed in my truck. Thanks so much.
I will not be recommending the Curt device or the Lippert app to anyone.

They don’t have zero stars
As with the other comments .. Curt made a serious mistake and changed a good working product (Echo Bluetooth) and could not / do not revert their poorly updated app to the old app that worked last year. My brakes locked up on lowest setting, and I simply stopped using it .. just to bring it in for service in November 23. Then when I tried/hoped it would work in April .. it didn’t, and I lost *two* camping trips trying to get it work … then gave up as my family vacations and time was worth more than a new brake controller. I just *upgraded* to an Autowbrake that works waay better than the even the original Curt Echo and I didn’t have to rewire my car. I will never buy any electronics from Curt again.

Curt ECHO Wireless Break Control
This wireless brake control was very frustrating to install and set up but, once set up, it seemed to work fine for the first two trips however I found the break gain hard to dial in with poor instructions. After that it failed to work at all. The app locked up and left me with no break control while on my trip. I don’t trust it at all. This was a complete waste of money. I will get a hard wired break control, made by another company, before I tow a trailer again.

Grant Permission
I was having difficulty pressing the grant permission button on my iPhone for the app to continue. I remember that I changed my text settings awhile back. I went and changed my text settings to a smaller text and I was able to press the Grant permission button. Issues solved, I hope that this will help others.

Disappointing
The app never worked properly and always asked for location to be granted, but never gave the option. Very disappointed.
Garbage
This product has caused frustration, disappointment, anger and anxiety! We’ve spent countless hours trying to get it to work. However, we did get it working at one point for a very short period of time. We tried to reconnect but it kept sending us in a loop. We do NOT recommend this product at all!

New non-functional application / Nouvelle application non fonctionnelle
Like several other users, the application did not work.
I called “Lippert customer care”.
The lady in the “one control auto” section made me check the “display and brightness” section in my cell phone
The Bold character must be disabled and the display zoom must be disabled too.
In a few minutes, the application works as before…
Sad that the app manager didn't write this simple warning for everyone's benefit...
Comme plusieurs autres utilisateurs, l’application ne fonctionnait pas.
J’ai appellé « Lippert customer care ».
La dame de la section « one control auto » m’a fait vérifier la section « affichage et luminosité» sur mon cellulaire.
Le caractère Gras doit être désactivé et le zoom d’affichage doit être désactivé aussi.
En quelques minutes, l’application fonctionne comme avant…
Triste que le gestionnaire de l’application n’est pas rédigé cette simple mise en garde pour le bénéfice de tous…

Dangerous- do not use
I’ve been very happy with my echo controller since Jan 2021.
I forced to upgrade to this app - while driving. We pulled over, upgraded and had a working app for about an hour before it just locked the brakes. I was in a single lane construction zone in the mountains and couldn’t stop. My car starting throwing ‘check engine’ as it was working to drag the car dolly in tow.
I closed, changed the profile, and went again.
Heading down from Eisenhower tunnel it locked the brakes again. We made an emergency stop, removed the controller and hoped for the best.
My car brakes were fried on the descent.
Who make the decision to a forced release to this app? Curt/Echo need to do an internal investigation and take disciplinary action. This is a horrible failure.
I’ll be reaching out to the company directly after I’ve had a mechanic inspect my tow vehicle and car dolly.
Please roll back to the old app until you fix this one.

Useless
It blocked me from pairing my device
Garbage
Want to give negative stars. The old app worked fine, now it constantly says it loses Bluetooth connection (5 times in a 20min trip on more than 1 occasion) & when it is connected it randomly applies the brakes and keeps them on until you brake heavily & even then sometimes they are still engaged. Pile of garbage
