### 1/5 — Will no longer let me sign in

*2026-06-22*

This app is useless now that it errors out every time I try to use it. It won’t update, it won’t let me even create a new account. It’s absolutely useless at this point.

### 1/5 — Forced Subscription

*2026-06-21*

This was an acceptable app with the option of subscribing, but as it has been updated it’s now harder and harder to use as a stand alone. Most recent update bolted my spa and made me “Set Up” after I already was configured with WiFi and paired. Now I have to start all over with a new install.

### 1/5 — Mauvaise connection

*2026-06-19, version 1.11.1*

Mon spa est toujours entrain de se déconnecter peut importe se que je fais dans votre soutien technique.

### 2/5 — Boondoggle

*2026-06-19, version 1.11.1*

We had the Gecko in touch 2 which was buggy but you could get to work and the schedule feature worked great and was free and would save $ overnight on hearing. Now we spend 100 bucks to get the new hardware to upgrade for faster features only to have them lock out the schedules and make you pay 8.45 a month or 100 a year?!? More than a basic Netflix subscription for god sakes. 

Not to mention what a huge pain it is to install this thing. If you have a in.touch 2 don’t bother upgrading.. what a boondoggle

### 3/5 — No notifications

*2026-06-10*

The first few months, we didn’t have any issues with the app. We use Frog@Ease inline system and didn’t have any problems with the readings. There have been some app updates and now things seem “wonky”. When the test strip shows purple for SmartChlor, the app shows 10 ppm. That is so far off that it makes you wonder if there is a problem. The default for anyone that uses Frog Ease should be in the normal range, not 10x higher than it should be. 

I am also no longer getting notifications on my iPhone like I did when we first got the spa. I have my phone set for them to come through, but it has been months since I have gotten any. I have to open the app everyday to see what things look like.

### 2/5 — Very limited with Endless Pools E550

*2026-06-09*

I’m a little disappointed by the lack of free features - when buying a swim spa that expensive, you’d think Endless Pools and Gecko would have an agreement to avoid having the customer pay any subscription. Furthermore, the app needs work: it shows Pump 2 but I only have one pump. And also it’s very hard for us to tell in the app if the spa lights are on or off because they use colors that look virtually the same. UX/UI person needs training…

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work!!

*2026-06-08*

When setting a ‘Standard’ schedule to run the pumps, there is a ‘start’ time and an ‘end’ time, but the instructions in the app state that there’s a ‘start’ time and a ‘duration’… completely different!!  Also, no matter how long I try to program the ‘start/stop’ time, (the smallest increment is 30 minutes), it shuts off after exactly one minute.   USELESS!!!

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-06-07*

The latest update you cannot control the temperature. The buttons do nothing.

### 1/5 — Total waste not even able to setup

*2026-05-28, version 1.10.1*

Total waste I followed the setup for an account got the authorization code did that then agreed to the terms and consent page entered first and last name then error said it couldn’t connect to server. No internet issues the spa shows in.touch connected all devices have internet total waste of time.

### 1/5 — Don’t fall for their subscription trap

*2026-05-21*

I used to be able to create schedules. Now they want me to pay a monthly subscription to access something previously I had and they put behind a paywall. I already paid for the hardware and it’s not like this was a new feature that was added after I purchased it.
