## What is Daikin Airbase?

Control and monitor your Daikin Ducted Air Conditioner from your iOS smartphone or tablet via Wi-Fi or internet.
This "Airbase" app will provide the majority of functions already available via the Daikin wall mounted remote control panel.

Standard functions such as On/Off, temperature, fan speed and mode of operation are easily set or monitored via the App.
 
Additional functions such as easy set On/Off timers, Push notification,  Interactive setup wizard, Dealer contact details and maintenance functions are also provided.
Depending on the model of air conditioner, indoor and outdoor temperature is also displayed.
 
If a Daikin Zone Controller is fitted to the air conditioner, the naming and remote control of zone dampers is also supported.
 
The zone control functionality also requires the Daikin Air Conditioner to be fitted with a Daikin Zone Controller (model BRC24Z4A, BRC24Z8A, BRC230Z4A or BRC230Z8A) along with associated zone control dampers.
 
This application requires a compatible Daikin Air Conditioner fitted with Daikin Wireless LAN Connecting Adapter (BRP15B61).
 
The App and Adapter also supports Daikin light commercial (Sky Air) split systems such as under-ceiling and cassette models.
If the indoor unit has a swing louver function, the App will recognise this and provide an additional air flow direction button and indication symbol.

In addition, they are compatible with the Daikin Hot Water System.

### 4/5 — Air con convenience

*2025-06-06*

We have been using this app for over a year since getting our ducted zoned system and yes it could be slicker but it does everything we need it to do, we find it perfectly responsive and never had to reset/ reinstall. It has saved us having to get a separate control pad for each level, if we’re on another floor in our house to the main control we can just adjust it on our phone and have switched it off remotely many times when left the house and forgotten.

### 5/5 — Excellent app, reliable long term

*2025-03-16*

I’ve been using this app for over a year now and despite what other reviewers say, I’ve never had an issue with this app connecting to the aircon unit and working reliably. I almost didn’t buy an Airbase wifi unit because of the reviews but this app is reliable whilst at home and whilst being controller remotely whether over wifi or over a cellular connection (4G/5G). Works perfectly and even works with Google Home without an issue. I did experience a temporary issue where the out of home control stopped working but just needed to disconnect the unit from out of home and reconnect and it started working again normally.

### 1/5 — Very Elementary for A Major Company

*2025-03-02*

The functions in the app are quite rudimentary. Many items don’t match your units wall controller either which is a pain. There are different modes for heating or cooling between the app and wall for example.  Whilst the wall controller allows a weekly program to be set day by day, there is no such function in the app. Why? You can only set one time and once it is used that day, it blanks out needing to be done over. There is no smarts about energy usage like some other companies. It’s like an effort from 2010 in 2025. Poor form and lazy of Daikin , they don’t sell bargain system but they do sell bargain apps. I would not buy Daikin again as a result.

### 3/5 — Convenient but lacks features

*2024-10-19*

This is a pretty decent interface overall and I am happy with it, but it could really do with some additional features. On the control panel I am able to switch between temperature sensors I have located in particular zones. The app has no problem showing me the temperature readout for the selected sensor once set on the master controller, but it would be great if I could swatch between sensors on the app. Seems like a pretty basic feature considering I can switch zone dampers on and off within the app. 

There doesn’t seem to be much support for the app either going off a lot of other reviews and the lack of updates etc.

### 3/5 — The adapter works but is very slow.

*2024-08-18*

The adapter works but is very slow when controlled on the app, I have to wait about 5 seconds for the adapter to load and 2 seconds for each time I switch from the controls tab onto the zones tab. I hope the developers fix this issue and make the adapter work faster. Aside from the slowness, the app has all the features that is included in the control panel, the controls are also very easy to use, nice UI. I also like how you’re able to control the adapter when you’re away as long as you’re logged in on Daikin and are connected to the internet.

### 4/5 — Daikin

*2024-07-22*

The System is convenient in some ways, being able to remotely turn on and off in case you forget or want to get the house warm before you arrive is convenient. However there are some annoying things they can fix such as scheduling rather than just having to put a timer on every time you want to turn on all of the unit. I don’t know what the accuracy of the temperature reading is on the app as it’s different to what my Thermo shows.

### 3/5 — Requires a schedule feature

*2024-06-10*

I am unable to create a reoccurring schedule for the ac to turn on/off. This is very limiting for a highly priced operating system. 
Repeating the same step every night to have to ac turn on in the morning is cumbersome. 
The app in slow. Local and “out of home” services should be all listed on a front/home page so you can see all units in one location. 

Despite this, the usefulness of an app to control the AC is fantastic. App developers need to review comments made by real time users to improve the userbility.

### 1/5 — Too slow to be useable. Room temp inaccurate

*2024-06-03*

This app is unusable!! It is super slow and where the temp reading totally inaccurate. Each time you change a setting or go into one of the air conditioners it talks to all the airbases first. (1 have 6 of them). So after I change a setting on one of the rooms, it can take up to 20 secs before I can make another change. Then they have the thermometer in the wrong place in the duct so it has the incorrect room temp reading and won’t heat or cool properly or give you the correct reading about the room’s temp. The spinning “busy” wheel isn’t easily visible either so you don’t know it is busy. If you try get this sorted out good luck. Daiken service is non existent!!

### 3/5 — App is useable but not great

*2023-06-27*

It scans for the WiFi controllers EVERY time you open it or change screen which takes 30s, and THEN you can make selections. Too slow.

The on and off timer settings can only be set based on 15 minute clock intervals eg 15 minutes past the hour, 30 minutes etc. You can’t stipulate a countdown time. 

The temperature of the room is not linked to the wall controller. It’s linked to the intake air sensor which is normally not applicable.

### 1/5 — Disaster

*2023-04-26*

This app is a disaster. Integration with Alexa doesn't work at all. Calling support results in advice to get a service person to replace a properly functioning module. Probably my password is causing this issue, but guess what? You cannot change the password that is once set. Also, there is another app Daikin Mobile, but guess what? The password set in the Airbase app doesn't work with Daikin mobile App. The Alexa linking service is advertising itself as running on Tomcat. Security is not something that Daikin would consider an important topic. Anyway, support is also not their strongest side. Really? Such a renowned brand is still around the year 2000 with its approach to tech and customers.
