Upon exiting app reports term and conditions error. Needs sorting. ### 1/5 — No Registration *2024-02-17* Unable to register as the app defaults to terms and conditions not working Don’t waste money on the hub ### 1/5 — Support *2023-02-15* Since your support link leads to a dead website… Can you tell me if the pairing (phone & switch) is maintained in the case of a power outage? ### 1/5 — Not worth downloading. *2022-11-08* Downloaded, filled the form in, added the device MAC address, hub flashes, I press the button. Wait half an hour, still not connected. Uninstall and reinstall the app several times. Repeat over the course of four hours and give up. Don’t waste your time like I did mine. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2020-09-22* Had this on my old phone where it worked fine. Changed to a later iPhone, tried to register but it doesn’t go through. ### 1/5 — Crashes! *2018-03-24* Crashes when retrieving profile so cannot get started ### 1/5 — Re loading app *2018-02-08* It never works constantly reloading the app to get it to work ### 2/5 — IOS11 *2017-09-20* Doesn’t work in iOS ### 3/5 — Does not work *2020-11-20* With iOS 14.2, crashes on load ### 4/5 — USE THIS ONE *2018-05-15* Any problems with other LightwaveRF APPs, and maybe like me you don’t understand why so many! use this one it’s the only one I found which I can see the link data. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This continues to save the day. 🙏✅💡 *2020-05-23* This app is great! Lightwaverf have totally ruined there original app. So found this one to surprise and was very happy to find lightwaverf had not made any updates to it. Which meant it worked. Honestly have no idea why they decided to ruin there own app and leave many users with a non working system. Probably along the lines of that they want users to upgrade to generation 2 devices, although it seems they have not even managed that. The reviews for generation 2 app are very poor. Honestly. Sort your self out lightwaverf. Not sure why lightwaverf are on a self destruct program. Who knows but let’s hope they leave Deta connect well alone. If they have any sense, Deta brand will tell them to not do any updates. Why touch something that works! It’s not like your going to make our generation 1 products work with HomeKit, that’s normally the idea of a update, not to remove functionality. ### 5/5 — Actually works *2018-01-12* Apologies for the facetious heading, but I’ve really been struggling with Lightwave RF’s ‘official’ app and almost threw all of the kit away. But, this one is great and does just what the Lightwave one used to before they messed it up. Like the previous reviewer, I also say to the developers ‘don’t touch this one!’ ### 4/5 — Better than current LightwaveRF *2018-04-04* I glad I fell across this app as it’s better than the current official LightwaveRF app after the update - the original LightwaveRF app was good this is effectively that app - as per previous comments LightwaveRF need to get their dev team sorted ! ### 4/5 — Works well *2017-11-19* Does all the things that the official app is supposed to do apart from setting moods. ### 4/5 — Return of the original! *2017-11-05* Most welcome to find this oddly named control app from LightWave which actually works. Having upset the world by producing a new and dreadful version of the original LightWave app this one now provides all the right features and it does the business. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
