### 5/5 — Ritardo nel collegamento

*2025-09-20, version 2.30.2*

Devo registrare un forte ritardo dall’apertura dell’app al collegamento. Passano circa 25 secondi. Poi dopo diventa operativa.

### 1/5 — Lentissima

*2025-09-18, version 2.30.2*

Dopo l’aggiornamento l’app impiega molto tempo per connettersi alla centrale. In caso di allarme questo e’ molto pericoloso

### 3/5 — nuova app lenta

*2025-07-21, version 2.30.2*

la nuova applicazione è molto lenta nel collegamento alla centrale rispetto alla vecchia

### 4/5 — Buona ma manca compatibilità con apple watch

*2025-05-29, version 2.28.3*

App buona ma manca la versione per apple watch o comunque non supportata ha home apple

### 1/5 — Lenta

*2025-01-14, version 2.24.4*

Poco funzionale, non da la possibilità di gestire la centrale

### 5/5 — Allarme 🚨

*2024-10-10, version 2.24.4*

Facilissimo da usare 
Lo consiglio a tutti 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

### 5/5 — Valutazione

*2024-08-15, version 2.24.4*

Di facile utilizzo

### 1/5 — App pessima

*2024-07-12, version 2.24.4*

Impossibilità di accedere. Messaggio centrale già registrata da altro utente (??!!). Nessuna possibilità di reset. Antifurto costoso (BW 30) tenuto conto degli accessori che finirà in garage. Lo utilizzerò per il box.

### 3/5 — Problema

*2024-03-19, version 2.24.4*

È da un pondi tempo che non arrivano più le notifiche quando inserisce o togli l’allarme… risolvete subito grazie

### 2/5 — Andava bene ma adesso.......meno

*2024-01-13, version 2.24.4*

Non capisco perché le telecamere non si riescono MAI ad attivare. Sono alcuni giorni che provo e non riesco. Nemmeno dopo l’aggiornamento. Se uno monta i sensori con le telecamere e poi non funzionano mai allora sarebbe meglio non spendere quei soldi inutilmente
