Worst update
The old version of this app was so easy to use. The latest update has the worst user interface I’ve ever seen. It’s clunky and unnecessarily convoluted. Please go back to the original app!
Needs ongoing developer support
This app is the default app for the AirTouch 5 air conditioner controller which runs the AC unit from an android tablet.
You can set up quite personalised and specific settings with different start and stop times, and temperatures within a program.
The iPhone/iPad app is ok, some set up options are not intuitive and are hidden behind other screens and settings. However once set up the system generally runs smoothly and the main screen allows you to quickly change zone settings on the fly.
Some downsides. The app could be more stable, it regularly fails to establish a connection and needs to be fully shutdown and reopened to work properly.
The developer is also trying to move users to the AirTouch Home. Which it says has “a focus on the entire home and smart devices” what that means in reality is that you are confronted with a much more complicated and cluttered interface with a new app that requires more sharing of personal data. The new app is in addition to the Airtouch5 app, not a replacement so you end up with 2 apps to manage one device which is a backward step.
Hopefully the developer doesn’t abandon the AirTouch5 app and those of us who simply and only want to control their air conditioner can still use it.
The Airtouch5 app needs ongoing support and refinement.

Looks good
Hope they keep up and get better so far loving it and the app is good
Frequently disconnects
The app frequently drops out from the connection with Wifi and you can’t use it on your iPhone. Have to often come downstairs and make adjustments on the wired in console. Everything else in our house works perfectly on the Wifi signal, which is strong. I’ve seen many other comments on the app saying the same thing. The app needs to be fixed to it doesn’t have regular connection issues. It’s terrible as it is.
