Don’t bother

Totally unreliable. Struggles to connect to the air con and if it finally does can drop out then not connect again. Now trying to reconnect it after changing a home modem simply does not work. $600 down the drain. Daikin need to lift their game or offer refund for this flakey device!

Waste of time

Useless. Very slow to log on that’s when It does. The app has not been up dated for 8 Years

Useless

App is hit and miss when connecting (at best). Quite often can’t connect at all. Desperately needs an update.

FAQ

What does the Daikin SKYFi app do?

The Daikin SKYFi app allows you to control your compatible Daikin ducted air conditioner from your iOS device. You can manage essential functions like turning the unit on/off, adjusting temperature, fan speed, and mode of operation. It also offers advanced features such as setting timers, monitoring indoor and outdoor temperatures, and controlling zone dampers if your system supports it.

What hardware do I need to use the Daikin SKYFi app?

To use the Daikin SKYFi app, you need a compatible Daikin Air Conditioner fitted with Daikin's BRP15A61 Wi-Fi Remote Control Interface (SKYFi). For zone control functionality, your air conditioner must also be fitted with a Daikin Zone Controller and associated zone control dampers.

Is there a subscription cost for the Daikin SKYFi app?

No, there is no Daikin subscription cost for using the Daikin SKYFi service. However, local network access charges may apply depending on your internet service provider and home network setup.

Can I control my air conditioner from anywhere in the world?

Yes, if your home or local Wi-Fi network has a permanent connection to the Internet, you can control your Daikin air conditioner from anywhere in the world where your iOS device has Internet access. The app connects to the SKYFi interface, which then connects to your home network.

What types of Daikin air conditioners are compatible?

The app is compatible with most Daikin ducted split systems and light commercial (Sky Air) split systems that are less than 10 years old. This includes under-ceiling and cassette models. If the indoor unit has a swing louver function, the app will recognize and support it.
