### 3/5 — Update

*2026-07-16*

This would be such a great app if y’all could just update it to fix the bugs, it never lets me search the cloud for tones! I’ve tried everything, thanks!

### 3/5 — Transfert sur la Firehawk

*2025-06-23*

Je ne peux pas transférer les sets du Cloud. Sur la pedale , depuis la MAJ

### 5/5 — Perfecto

*2024-08-17, version 1.3.7*

Hace lo que tiene que hacer

### 3/5 — Urge una actualización por favor!

*2023-09-16, version 1.3.7*

1.- Al estar conectado, el cambio de patches se vuelve muy lento.

2.- La app se conecta y empieza a cargar todo desde cero cuando uno minimiza la app, es decir, si vas a otra app y regresas, empieza a cargar desde cero, es un fastidio.

No se por que descontinuaron este gran proyecto de la conectividad bluetooth.

Line 6, urge tener hardware de calidad, piezas duraderas para el uso rudo, foot switch que no sean de juguete. Hagan productos de uso rudo y sus ventas se iran a los cielos. 

Les he sido fiel por años, ( 18 años) pero voy a cambiar de marca debido a sus productos de mala calidad en hardware. Cuando vuelvan a hacer las cosas bien, posiblemente regrese.

### 1/5 — Update

*2021-07-30, version 1.3.7*

Why don’t you update the app and fix bugs especially for Bluetooth connection with iPhone? We iPhone users can’t use Firehawk with the newest iOS. You guys must refund money to all the users If you stop updating. Cause we expected that the app’d be updated with every OS update when we buy the product.

### 1/5 — SE TRABA

*2021-07-17, version 1.3.7*

No responde la aplicación

### 5/5 — Well...

*2021-07-03*

Works fine for me

### 1/5 — Crap app!

*2021-06-27*

This app used to work great.  For over a year it just randomly looses connection to the pedal.  Super frustrating that line 6 can’t support a pedal that still cost what a firehawk costs!  If I could give 0stars I would!

### 2/5 — App freezes

*2021-05-06*

I love the pedal board and the idea that you can use a app to control your effects, but for some reason the app just stays frozen and I can’t do anything with it. Payed so much money for a pedal board that is now limited to the effects that are on it.

### 2/5 — App keeps rebooting

*2021-02-03*

You guys really need to fix the bugs on this app. It keeps shutting down. Awesome pedal board, horrible app which completely damos the whole experience
