No wifi – no fan

It's actually that stupid. When the wifi connection is lost, the bathroom fan starts flashing the light and disables the fan. The main function it's supposedly designed to perform. Your internet provider is now responsible for your bathroom humidity.
Not even mentioning the fan won't start working out of the box unless you install the app. It's extremely annoying, never again will I buy their product

App does not work

The most unintuitive useless app. I have used in a very long time! I am completely disgusted with the product and replacing it with something that actually works. Ridiculously ridiculously unacceptably terrible. And I want them to pay me for the hours I’ve lost trying to get this to respond.

So far so good

I don’t know why there are so many bad reviews, I’ve had a smart fan from this company for over a year, so far so good other then a time it made noice but that was due to the installation being incorrect. Don’t rly use this app just use Alexa but the app looks clean and product is good. At least my unit, idk bout other people. I’m NoT a bot.

No Stars For This Junk

Horrid app and horrid device. Bought it because code requires a fan and we already had a light and switch. Wanted LED light but did not want a bulb. All these products have useless connectivity that I neither want nor need. What the box does not say is that internet connectivity is required to set it up. Why the thing needs to be on a network to get the fan working must be some evil plot. Getting it connected to a secure home network was awkward at best, and the app helps not at all. The device seems to randomize MAC address, useful on a mobile device, but why on a home network? That done, the thing is now on my network. Then it went off my network. Works for days or a day. Needed resetting and starting over. Hate it. Hate them. It had better keep working.
Weeks later…
I’ve been testing it daily and it continues to work. However, I have little faith in it continuing to do so. Afraid if I don’t use it, it will fail when I do and need resetting. Still wish I bought anything else.
Additionally, all the bathroom fans I’ve looked at do not have mounting tabs for either orientation. This junk had to be installed with screws through the side. What is wrong with these companies? Wish I had just bought the one that needed a bulb. I got dozens in a box. From now on, the words “works with…” is a warning to not buy.

Insanity

This is the worst company I have ever worked with. If you need support you better have all day because they won’t answer the phone and it will take hours for them to call you back. Their products required independent network and multiple apps downloaded out on your phone. Just turn on. if you have purchased this product, take it back immediately

Problems

Nothing but issues with this bathroom fan, never again will I purchase from your company.

Setup straight up doesnt work

Tried to connect manually and by scanning but both are duds.
