Great door!

I’ve had this door for about 2 months and I love it! Very easy to program if you watch the quick video. I was also confused by the app resetting and not saving the times I programmed but the programming worked, my door opens and closes on time and I no longer have to get up at the crack of dawn to let the girls out. One of the best purchases I’ve made in.

Brilliant App

Ok people, you need to understand. This app is not “connecting” to the door. It is simply a way to “configure” the door. When you get the door into “configure” mode, the photo sensor on the door acts as a receiver. Your phone’s screen will blink rapidly (which is why it tells you to hold it up to the sensor) and transfers all the data to the door in binary using “blinks”. Honestly it’s absolutely brilliant, I’m a an engineer and can appreciate how clever this is.

So don’t be confused if the app doesn’t “save” any of your settings. If you want to program the door (which you will most likely do once and then never again) you configure your settings, let your iPhone screen blink at the sensor, and it transfers all the settings.

Hats off to the genius who came up with this idea. Cheaper and easier than Bluetooth or WiFi.

Follow the instructions on the app and it will work fine. Did for me.

Works well

Works well, easy to use.
Could we have a future option to set multiple open/closing times? To let the chickens into a run, then prevent them from coming back through?

Really like the door. App needs clarity

App settings reset if you open/close the app. Is confusing if you want to use the timer setting, if you close app it will reset to open/close on daylight and evening, making you feel it was not saved. Also, delay setting in advance settings is fixed and can not adjust from default of 20min.

*update! Read a helpful review regarding app resetting. It makes sense. You’re configuring your door at the source, so once configured following the steps, app is only needed if you want to reconfigure. The actual door holds you’re saved settings. Make sure to watch video on how to configure.

Doesn’t work

The app is completely useless the door is stuck on 20 min after dark and 20 min after sunrise cannot get the settings to change with the app
