Any lower score 0.01 star

Being generous with 1 star. Constantly drops off losing power when trying to connect to it via bluetooth after enabling OSDP

Logs you out constantly and makes you set a hard to remember and type password

Newest update makes it so the app logs you out after a set time. The password has to be secure which makes it hard to type each time. It's not making the app more secure because now my password is in the notes app for easy coping.

Please add NFC

It’s crazy to me that this app only supports Bluetooth on iOS. The NFC sdk has been made available for a while now and this functionality is very much needed when programming legacy readers with no BT module.

Worst app

The app doesn’t open at all. Crashes instantly.

Can’t apply settings

Upon trying to change reader configuration I keep getting errors and it won’t change any settings. Customer angry and lots of time wasted trying to get configuration changes to no avail.
