## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Access Denied

*2026-06-04*

I have full permissions to our entire organization and it tells me access denied and doesn’t show any of my devices.

### 1/5 — Need a firmware upgrade

*2026-01-15*

I can log in... then the app asks for a firmware upgrade.

### 1/5 — Worse than old Fortiexplorer

*2025-12-24*

The login requires going through the web auth process including token, which is a huge waste of time each time I open the app. Fortiexplorer could cache the credentials, it doesn’t seem possible here. Moreover, all my Fortigates ade shown as offline. I don’t understand the point of this app. Please bring the old Fortiexplorer back

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-08-15*

Unsure what is being accomplished here. But the app keeps telling me it can’t fetch current data. Does not show half my firewalls and to say it can manage your firewalls is a joke. Skip this app. Beyond useless…

### 1/5 — What is this?

*2025-05-27*

It doesn’t let me do anything

### 1/5 — App setup

*2024-08-14*

This app is for setting up new devices all the time. Tried to use the the dashboard to login to a router and it would not let me use bitwarden to inject the password. The password is over 35 characters. Sure a pain to type every time on your phone. The VPN feature is gone and not in this app any more. Push notifications do not even come to this app even if you set them up correctly.

### 1/5 — Unable to connect

*2024-07-09*

Unable to connect always error , old FortiExplorer works fine

### 1/5 — Can’t Paste A Copied Password

*2024-07-05*

See title for chief complaint. Literally a non-starter.

### 1/5 — Not working - not able to connect wherea fortiexplorer works fine

*2024-06-23*

Not working - not able to connect wherea fortiexplorer works fine…

### 1/5 — Notifications

*2024-02-15*

It doesn’t seem to support notifications like the old app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. The latest version of FortiExplorerGo does support push notifications, primarily for critical security events and FortiCare ticket updates, similar to the previous app. Please ensure you're using the latest version and have enabled notifications in your iOS settings.

If you need assistance, feel free to reach out to our support team through the Help & Support section in the FortiExplorerGo app.

### 3/5 — pretty good

*2025-05-01*

Given currently FortiExlorer on IOS seems to have issues working at all for me, this app has no problem with th same Fortigate on 7.6.3 so thats a plus.
It seems to be slower than FortiExlorer on an iphone 16 pro max  on IOs 18.4, likely the thanks to the way it connecte and operates with the firewall that actually currently works.

### 2/5 — No port info on the dashboard

*2025-05-16*

When you open the legacy FortiExplorer, there are a lot of info shown without additional remote login, such as each port’s IP configurations. Now I don’t see this in the new FEGO.
