### 1/5 — Crap

*2018-11-28*

App is total crap. Amateur attempt.

### 1/5 — SAB

*2018-11-09*

Garbage app, nothing works!

### 1/5 — DO NOT GET

*2016-04-27, version 1.5*

I just built a new house and I can't listen to music because this app doesn't work. Use a different company for speaker systems if you can.

### 1/5 — This app is ugly

*2015-11-30, version 1.5*

The app is outdated and ugly. Please please please update it

### 1/5 — Current Hifi 2 owner

*2015-07-17, version 1.4*

It was working fine the latest app update now only picks up four zones, I have a 8x8, why is it that every time they update they screw it up? Do the techs check these updates? I hope they fix this soon!

### 1/5 — Crappy app

*2015-06-28*

I spent good money on the system and installed it thinking Leviton would support their product.

### 1/5 — Disappointed customers

*2015-05-11, version 1.3*

I am a certified Leviton Security, Audio, and Automation dealer. I have installed many HiFi2 systems and now have many customers calling my office asking when the app will be fixed. I would like to give them some good news for a change. We have been waiting for 3 months now.

### 1/5 — Force Closes

*2015-05-06, version 1.3*

Force closes when selecting a different zone or source. Only able to control power and volume for zone 1. I would love to be able to fully utilize the app as it was intended. Please fix. ~05/05/15: Still waiting for that update. Come on, do it!

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2015-04-11*

App does not work. It crashes every time you try to switch sources

### 1/5 — doesn’t work with new iPhone

*2015-03-14*

doesn’t work with latest iPhone software keeps crashing just spent a silly amount of money installing the whole system to find it doesn’t work.

terrible

### 1/5 — Still crashes

*2015-03-10, version 1.3*

Crashes on my iPhone 5. And you can't select the zone...stuck on the "kitchen." Sorry I bought this.

### 1/5 — Is this the support we should expect since Leviton bought HAI?

*2015-01-21, version 1.1*

When this was still an HAI product the app worked flawlessly. Then Leviton bought out HAI. Leviton was kind enough to add their splash screen into the app (so it's not like they don't even know about it?) but somewhere between the Leviton deal and iOS8 the app crashes immediately on start. This has been the case for weeks, no, months....with no sign of improvement to come in what is actually quite a simple and straightforward app to code.

### 1/5 — Craptistic "upgrade"

*2015-01-07, version 1.1*

Haven't been able to control my HIFI2 since iOS8.

### 1/5 — Updated app closes when I press Discover Now

*2014-12-18, version 1.1*

Can't even use app.

### 1/5 — New Version totally broken

*2014-12-16, version 1.1*

Old version worked fine.  This version crashes immediately after selecting any button.  Also froze the app in discovery of hifi unit.  Completely unusable and terribly annoying.

### 1/5 — Still doesn't work.

*2014-12-10*

What's going on with this app/company. A lot of money spent installing this audio system to have this app not working is not acceptable. Get it together!

### 1/5 — Does not work with new IOS

*2023-02-03, version 1.5*

Updated my IOS software and the app stopped working.  When you try to select a room or source, the app crashes.  Still works on an old iPad with an older version of IOS.

### 1/5 — Crashes - unusable

*2023-01-16, version 1.5*

The only thing I can do on this app is change the volume on the zone that first opens up. If I try to switch to another source - crash. If I try to switch to another zone - crash. Useless. Up until a few months ago it was working fine. Customer support is MIA.

### 1/5 — Need love.

*2022-04-23*

Need to be fix!

### 1/5 — To piece of S____

*2021-10-16, version 1.5*

Techie’s love to f___ with S___ .  They took a good thing and f___ed it up. Thanks to you f___ heads!!!

### 1/5 — Total junk

*2021-07-31, version 1.5*

Never worked correctly from the day it was installed. Have to frequently unplug the receiver and uninstall the app. If you’re streaming musing from your phone and get a call or text message the music will shut off and rarely come back on. Go with Sonos.

### 1/5 — Piece of C^*p

*2020-08-06, version 1.5*

How did they screw up something that was seamless? I’ve had a HiFi2 system since 2008. It got fried- my bad. I’ve since reinstalled 3 units with the first 2 not working at all and the 3rd one now only working wiith the archaic phone app/ when it feels like it. Customer un-support  has been a joke! Blaming everything on COVID-19 to software update/crashes. This has been going on since April- I still don’t have a reliable house system. Very close to yanking the whole out  and dump it in the trash. .

### 1/5 — Don’t use Leviton

*2020-02-02, version 1.5*

This is very frustrating as I had speakers inside and outside only to find out it has stopped working.  It’s very disappointing that thousands of $$ spent and app doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Does not work at all

*2019-10-03*

Who would bother putting this on the market?  It’s an absolute failure.

### 1/5 — Waste of time. Doesn’t work!

*2019-07-04*

Waste of time

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-12-24, version 1.5*

Leviton has not updated in 3 Years...shame on them.  The app is useless and does not work

## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated)

### 4/5 — Awesome

*2013-06-06, version 1.0*

Very nice app needs pause and next buttons to be perfect

### 3/5 — Ne fonctionne plus depuis une mise à jour iOS

*2021-06-02*

Cette app ne fonctionne plus depuis une dernière mise à jour iOS (14.5). Même après avoir réinstallé l’app. J’adore cette app pour contrôler mon HiFi2 de Leviton. Naturellement cette app ne fonctionne pas dans le système HiFi2.

### 3/5 — Works ok

*2021-01-17*

This app works ok but just the bare minimum amount of work went into it. Very simple yet it works fine. Wish I could rename the zones and sources through the app rather than just having them numbered. You usually get what you pay for and Leviton is a good example of that.

### 3/5 — Works on iPhone but not iPad

*2015-01-21, version 1.1*

Long awaited version upgrade for ios8.  Works 100% on my iPhone 5s but NOT on my iPad.  iPad still unable to change zone or source.  Both devices running ios 8.0.2.  Glad to have it back on the iPhone anyway, but something's still screwy.  Please take another look, Leviton, and get the bugs out.  I like it better for controlling the hifi2 than Haiku but until it functions across the board I gotta stick with Haiku.  Keep trying.

### 2/5 — Latest version

*2015-03-24, version 1.3*

I like the app, as I have installed and used it prior to the latest IOS updates. However, as of 03/24/2015, the latest update does discover the HiFi 2. But, app crashes when you try to change the Zone. By default, the app loads to Zone1.  I can turn on/off, change volume and source on that zone with no issues. But, again, app crashes when I  try to change to another zone. Back to the drawing board, boys!
