Difficult to connect WiFi

Had this for 2 years. The most impossible unit to connect to WiFi. Loses connection. Rebooting the router used to fix it. No more. Frustrating. Grrr

Not working

Not working on iPhone 14 pro max. The app force closes as soon as I open it

App won’t load with IOS16.2

App crashes all the time and never loads. I understand that manufacturers that produce electro-mechanical hardware devices won’t have top notch developers but if you are in this space, do it properly or use a 3rd parity tool that is in this space.

WORST APP

Absolutely the worst app for your lighting needs. Look elsewhere!!!!

Worked great until my new iPhone

Instantly crashes now

Now it’s a worthless app no longer works. Reinstalled did not solve issue.

Time

App won’t keep precise time

intermatic password is not accepted

Used to work, then the eBay-app nightmare - forced updates bricked this

Roll back your updates - this used to be clumsy but WORKED. Now, as everyone else is saying, it is clumsy and doesn’t talk to the timer at all. Idiots.

One thing I wish about this app

I wish that it worked.
75 dollars for a wifi switch and the app is not usable. Constant log outs and having to log back in just to be notified that it can’t log me in. Then it almost never finds my device. Complete trash.

Crashes

App does not open on iPhone 13 Pro Max with newest IOS. Update coming???

Nothing but problems.

App has not worked since the last firmware update. It was working fine. Then you sent me a message to update my firmware. I did, and it hasn’t worked since.

App won’t even open

How is it that there hasn’t been an update in 4 months even though IOS had updates? The app won’t even open on my iPhone. Now what do I do?!?!

Suggestion

There are two things I wish about this app.

a) That it would set and calibrate the time off the internet connection, or had a way to zero out seconds for precise time

b) That it would send notifications when an event happens.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. We will consider these product improvements in future releases. LG
