EXTREMELY GENERIC!!!! :(
If I could give this Tenda Wi-Fi App a Zero; I would definitely do so! Not User Friendly at all! You would think with ALL of the Negative reviews, there would be some major improvements!! It’s obvious NO One is monitoring any of this to benefit the users. RIDICULOUS!!!!!!
Worse and worse
After shaky reboot, the app indicates all meshes are offline and cannot connect, though they work fine. Can someone fix this false alarm? The app used to be nice and accurate, not sure if the company fired all good SW engineers and hired bad ones…
Seems good so far after a few issues
I too like many of the other reviewers had issues with the APP after initial setup - it was completely unresponsive and did not reflect the network state (it claimed everything was offline even though it was clearly working and also no settings could be applied) I fixed this by following the advice of another reviewer and after initially adding all of the nodes to the network (which was also a bit ‘trial & error’) I deleted the APP, reinstalled it and then ran through the initial setup of re-adding the main gateway device. THIS FIXED EVERYTHING and the app now displays correctly, shows all nodes and their mesh connectivity correctly and allows settings to be applied etc. Happy so far!
EDIT:
App no longer working (lasted a couple of days) and showing all 6 nodes offline, but the network is still active. 👎🏻

Does the job
Like many others, I experienced the issue of suddenly no longer being able to view the network from within the app despite the mesh functioning and delivering Wi-Fi throughout the house. The fix, in my case at least, however, was a simple one. Just a case of deleting/redownloading the app, resetting the main node (small recessed button on base that you need to press with a pin or similar), going through the initial set up - and voila, all nodes connected automatically and full visibility of everything within the app.
Don’t get me wrong, it has far from the best user interface/functionally, but does enable you to add nodes, see that they’re connected to the mesh and carry out some basic network config. Support, as far as I can see anyway, is pretty much non existent. Cheap like borscht though. You pays yer money and takes yer chance when buying from Mao’s big rock candy mountain.

Used to work
I have had a Nova Mesh for years and it’s been great. The app worked fine and allowed me to change settings on the network and control which devices had access to the internet at what times of day. Then one day about 3 months ago it just stopped working. Wifi works fine but the app won’t connect. Same problem as lots of others. I can no longer see which nodes are working, what devices are connected or change any settings. Absolutely useless. Puts me off buying anything else from this brand.

To little
Not enough control over the router on the app
Wi-Fi connected but app doesn’t recognize
App says I am not connected to nods but i ads edit things like network name and check for firmware updates. Things are not as they should be. Too bad!
App not working for me - now working
App can’t find the MW3 nodes. However internet connection and connection between nodes seems to be working just can’t see anything in the app. Confusing!!
Deleted and reinstalled got it working!!!!

Really nice little system
I’ve been really happy with this little system for the price. The app works well. Setup of the mesh network was incredibly easy. We’re running 8-10 devices on it around our house and it works very well. The app does a good job of proving some options but keeping it simple and approachable.
The app is useless
Full of bugs and glitches. There’s a option called
“Wifi schedule” If you just press the option just to view the thing you routers wifi connection just disappears then I had to reset my router to get wifi connection back. Too useless and the most rubbish network app I’ve ever used. MiWifi , NetGearHawk , TP-Link .. ETC apps are much better than this tenda app. Hope you guys improve.
