It is not user friendly. I have bought 2 units from WalMart and I guess I will need to return them, as I am not able to have them work with my cell phone. ### 1/5 — Started good ended bad *2023-07-16* This app stopped working after a while even after I updated it. Uninstalled it to start again and now it doesn’t work at all ### 4/5 — Almost perfect *2022-08-06* I got the app, added the blind opener configuration very easy. BUT The solar unit looks like it has LDR on it but not recognized with winter setup Time setup shows day but not time. ### 1/5 — Aweful *2022-05-22* The app doesn’t work. The product is not fully functional. Bought through Walmart. asked for a refund. Developer offered to send a new one. I accepted the offer. 6 months and many follow ups later it hasn’t arrived. Seems like a scam to avoid refunding. Worthless product. Landfill. ### 5/5 — Great App! *2022-02-27* Despite previous reviews, this is actually a great app! It’s feature packed, I’ve used it for a few months now and it has been totally faultless for me- and I use it every day via a light sensor to automatically open & close my blinds every day. ### 4/5 — Where is the timer? *2022-02-26* Seems reliable on first use. Stays connected. Doesn’t have issues with reconnecting. But for the life of me I cannot find the timer settings. How do I setup time of day/week to open/close? Please help. ### 2/5 — China Made App *2022-01-23* Although simple to set up with the app, after 2 days, I now can’t seem to operate the blinds anymore through the app. The previous timer presets are still activate but I can no longer change them or do anything else. I tried removing and reinstalling the app to no avail. Also, Similar to another review, on the timer screen, you can’t view the writing as it’s white writing on a white background? Bizarre. I’m going to be asking to be sent another unit to see if that works with the connectivity issues! ### 1/5 — Does not connect anymore *2022-01-10, version 17.3* I got 3 AM43 drives and initially was able to pair them and everything g was working fine. Then all of a sudden the drives still show in the app but I cannot access 2 of them. For one the old automation is partially working and for the other it doesn’t. They are all fully charged - I tried to uninstall the app and delete the app data. However, the 2 drives cannot be paired again. A big waste of my time and currently I can only use 2 of the drives manually. In one Thread it states to pair with the Tuya app - I tried all the BLE drives on that app and it does not work either. The 2 drives also don’t go into pairing mode after pressing the up and set button/ or down and set button for 3 seconds. ### 2/5 — Updates Needed *2021-12-05, version 17.3* (Post 5-Dec-2021) The app hasn’t been updated in a year. While the basic functions work, there are annoying issues. Example: It does not adapt to Dark Mode which renders the User Interface unusable when you iPhone is in Dark Mode. The interface refreshes every time you navigate away from the app. So if you need to force you iPhone into Light Mode and return the UI refreshes. That would not be a problem, but the refresh is slow. I no longer recommend the app given the length of time since the last update. ## Frequently asked questions about Blind Engine ### What does the Blind Engine app do?
