### 3/5 — This was reccomended

*2025-11-23, version 1.5*

Will we see HomeKit support?

### 3/5 — New app

*2025-10-11, version 1.5*

This app is telling me that I will need to download skyport to control my thermostat starting Oct 15. I cannot  find the app. What do I do?

### 3/5 — Too many steps

*2025-10-01, version 1.5*

I find it cumbersome and time consuming to change temp/AC to heat and back. Too many steps for most everything.

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2025-08-17, version 1.5*

Amana Home is lacking in that there does not appear to be a way to add more than one account for people in the home and when everyone is away. Only tracks one person and if others are home Amana Home still goes to Away mode. 
Also there is no weather screen saver option, like Nest has.

### 4/5 — Great App but could be even better

*2025-07-07, version 1.4*

All the functionality of the Amana thermostat is in the app but some simple key data would improve usefulness. It would be awesome if system usage time was visible in the app and from the thermostat like other apps (e.g. Sensi app) have. Time in hrs & min my system spends by day heating, cooling, dehumidifying would be a great addition to see.

### 3/5 — Amana Thermostat

*2025-07-03, version 1.4*

I don’t like the interface at all. It also looses connectivity too easily and too often. 
Mostly though I cannot stand the fact that it has a range that you set the thermostat to.  I would prefer one set temperature, not a range.
Another feature that would make it better would be having the ability to set the fan on to more than just once an hour
I had a Nest Thermostat and had to replace it with the Amana one as Nest was not compatible with the Amana A/C unit. Damn.

### 3/5 — Does what it needs and not much more

*2025-03-25, version 1.4*

After having another smart thermostat that did so much, this one has NO bells or whistles.  The thermostat is required for Amana systems.  But it gives you very little information.  Am I on heat pump or gas?  Go outside and look, cuz the app wont tell you.  Want to see any run statistics?  You might get a cryptic email once a month.

### 2/5 — Needs remote sensors

*2025-03-17, version 1.4*

Doesn’t work with my humidifier

Doesn’t support remote sensors. Many other thermostats and apps like ecobee include sensors that can’t be put in rooms to average in temps across the range of the furnace/AC

### 2/5 — meets expectations

*2025-02-22, version 1.4*

but doesn't exceed them

With all the available data that an app could track (proven by Nest and Ecobee), Amana's version is a disappointment.

Does it control the temperature in my home? Yes. Does it allow me to create a climate schedule? Yes. Does it provide useful air quality data? Yes. In these ways, the app meets my expectations for what I can do with the most basic of programmable thermostats. 

Does it estimate the power usage of my heat pump? Yes. Is this estimate even remotely accurate? No. What is the point of a graph that is off by over 50%?

Does it track the system's runtime and provide timely reports of this information? Does it breakdown this usage into gas/heat-pump? Nope. Even my cheap Honeywell could track the runtime of my old furnace. 

Does the app allow me to run heat-pump or gas based on time of day? Nope. I can set the heat-pump to run over a certain temperature, but i would also like to restrict its use to daylight hours during which we produce solar power. This would be a simple addition to the settings, but Amana doesn't feel it's important. 

I was sold on the thermostat and this app based on its ability to allow full functionality of my hybrid system. I have found the app to be sadly lacking and Amana disinterested in making improvements.

### 1/5 — Cumbersome without sensors

*2025-01-27, version 1.3*

The unit we bought included a new thermostat and requires this app. The unit is great but the software has no sensors and I find the app very cumbersome.

### 2/5 — Missing feature

*2025-01-08, version 1.3*

I can’t find where I see the runtime of the system. Also, adding the thermostat to Apple Home is not intuitive, if even possible

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App refuses to send code

*2025-12-20, version 1.5*

Download this app, but this app asked for a code to be to verify account but every time you send one in saying you need the code an email never shows up and there’s never been a coat so you can’t use it

### 1/5 — Obsoleted in 3 months

*2025-11-02, version 1.5*

The interface for home heat and air just went blackout dead. Seems to be rigidly mounted to the wall. No user guide other than this app which doesn’t work anymore and gives message to install a different app. Very bad just 3 months after install.

### 1/5 — This app has been discontinued

*2025-10-14, version 1.5*

It says it has been replaced by an app that doesn’t exist in the App Store

### 1/5 — Owner

*2025-10-13, version 1.5*

I believe Amana is a good company and good product but our system has been broken and they have been here to fix it over 15 times what else can I say our electric bill has twice that it should have been and still is not fixed thank you for your attention home owner.

### 1/5 — Amana

*2025-10-13, version 1.5*

App is okay and now switching to Skyporthome .. WHICH IS NO WHERE TO BE FOUND

### 1/5 — App going away - replacement not yet in AppStore

*2025-10-05, version 1.5*

Users get a banner message when logged into this app that says it’s going away and being replaced by SkyportHome on October 15, 2025, but the new app is not available in the App Store yet…

### 1/5 — Awful app

*2025-08-22, version 1.5*

If I had seen the app before the AC guy installed the system, we would have gotten something else…

### 1/5 — My brand new unit has stopped working. American Home Pros won’t come out until tomorrow.

*2025-08-05, version 1.5*

Weve purchased three units from them in the last year. So much for friends and family plan.

### 1/5 — Poor user experience

*2025-07-31, version 1.5*

Awkward to use compared to others i have used. Temp range set by slider/arrows not able to type in number.  Schedule seems to need to be set separately for each day of week not week/weekend. Seems only one phone can access the phone app.  My husband has it on his. Can’t get it on mine.

### 1/5 — Not restarting

*2025-03-15, version 1.4*

This is a new unit and every time we lost power from the city, the unit does not re start and I have to call the technicians.
I will not recommend this brand to anyone. It just a waste of money.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2025-09-12, version 1.5*

We love the ease with which this app operates. So easy to set and maintain our new air conditioner/ heating units cooling/heating operations.

### 5/5 — Useful and no performance issues

*2025-08-31, version 1.5*

I’ve been using the app with my HVAC system for about 18 months. No issues - great uptime performance, able to control my humidifier and temp, schedule is intuitive to use. No complaints.

### 5/5 — Amana Thermostat

*2025-08-14*

It seems to be a good thermostat, it has some good features.  But it would be nice if it had the amount of hours it was in use on a daily basis!!! Coming being a Sensi user for years that was a great feature.  Please add that in the near future on an update! Thanks

### 5/5 — Hot summer but my Amana AC is working really really great

*2025-06-26, version 1.4*

Yes my Heat Pump it is working great

### 5/5 — Replacement unit

*2025-05-02, version 1.4*

This unit replaced the original unit from 24 years ago. It not only is better and SMARTER than the original, it's smarter than me. Cooling/dehumidifying is stone cold and quiet as a church mouse. We have increased the temperature setting from 69 degrees to 72 and it's as cool now as it was with the original unit. And the outside unit can't even be heard unless you're right next to it and even then it's barely audible. And it has a setting for night time to cut the noise even further. All kinds of energy saving features. It's absolutely amazing. I'll update this come cold weather to determine how it heats.

### 5/5 — Happy so far

*2025-04-15, version 1.4*

Makes it easier to control the temperature in the house and control our utilities bill. Very pleased with the unit so far.

### 5/5 — nice clean and easy app

*2025-04-09, version 1.4*

It's really nice that the app works and looks exactly like the wall unit!  Better in many ways than the Nest I had previously.  The amana  just follows the set schedule no questions.

One feature I miss though is the ability to say "circulate air starting now, and for the next X hours".  I do have the circulate on a schedule, but sometimes I want to run the blower fan for a while to clear out a smell, like when the windows were open and a neighbor started up their smoker.

### 5/5 — Amana HVAC

*2025-03-30, version 1.4*

Love our new Amana HVAC system. It’s very quiet and we haven’t had the problem with ice buildup on our sidelight windows. 
Love having the app on my phone!

### 5/5 — Heating and air system

*2025-03-22, version 1.4*

I absolutely love our new Amana. He did an air system. It is absolutely amazing. I cannot believe the difference it has made in cost efficiency. Easy Wi-Fi access if we’re freezing it’s hot in five minutes. If we’re hot or cold in five minutes. It’s the best investment we’ve ever made. I recommend this product to anybody this looking to replace their system. Thank you. You. Very happy customer.

### 5/5 — Workhorse HVAC

*2024-12-27, version 1.3*

Replaced a Traine with this system 
Easier maintenance 
System control menus are straightforward 
Outdoor units are more aesthetically pleasing and less prone to debris
