### 5/5 — Cool Remote user interface

*2022-06-10*

The cool remote puts you so in touch with your equipment you will see exactly what it’s doing . So if the equipment is running properly it’s a pleasurable experience , when it’s having trouble it’s the tool you want to access and determine why it’s going off

### 1/5 — Update doesn’t work

*2021-05-28, version 1.3.3*

Doesn’t work

### 3/5 — Issue with app

*2021-04-23, version 1.3.3*

Great App however constantly needing to delete and re install 
Please fix ASAP

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work any longer

*2021-04-21, version 1.3.3*

Hasn’t been updated in ages. Used to be a good app, but has recently started opening with a message saying “You’re currently using an older version of CoolRemote. Please update by clicking the button below.” The button does nothing. And there is no app update in the App Store. This is now a non functional app.

### 2/5 — Needs an update

*2021-04-20, version 1.3.3*

Need to close and re-open the app to use it. Been going on for 2 years. Good app one it’s open.

### 1/5 — Needs an update

*2021-01-19, version 1.3.3*

Disappointed how slow this app is in connecting to system. App hasn’t been updated in over a year.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2019-05-15, version 1.0*

Once this is setup properly, it opens up great home automation possibilities.

### 3/5 — Questionable Consistency

*2018-05-15*

This app is pretty frustrating at best. Heat was on last night, but need to switch to a/c today - but the app literally will not let me change the setting. I hit cool, it spins/thinks a minute and then flips back to heat. I’ve closed and reloaded the app, and my phone, to no avail. Seriously? It’s 90 out and my heats on. 

It also only shows the temp each zone is set to in the list - but not the temp the zones actually are, too, until you click into the zone. With multiple zones, this is aggravating.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2017-08-17*

This just works. Set up on the hardware side is a little challenging, but the manufacturer support is excellent. Once that is set up, this app just plain works. If you need to control multiple Mitsubishi ductless splits, this is the solution you want. Worth every penny.

### 3/5 — Seriously, guys?

*2016-06-24*

I tried to open this app, but this app freeze and I can't opened it, because I think I downloaded too much apps. I deleted 10 of them, there was a lot of GBs left, but my iPad turned into an apple. I tried to open. Works right now, but become frozen. Please don't make this app buggy. Thank you for your support! I rate this app three stars.
