NOT User Friendly

This app is incredibly frustrating! Needed to google the “how to ….” during each attempt to do something with my new Bosch dishwasher via the app. Still the Bosch website says that my dishwasher has features only controlled by the app (like the rinse feature) and I have yet to find where or how to do this. Attempting to set up remote start has been an effort in frustration! Even just initially connecting to my home WiFi, something typically very easy to do with many devices, was difficult with this app! Instructions were attempting to encompass several different Bosch dishwashers but each model actually has variations that made the instructions inaccurate for my model. Even the initial instructions for entering my model number to begin using the app was wrong! Literally one of the worst apps I have ever used. Amazed that it has so many good reviews.

App Disconnects Frequently

This is yet another ‘smart’ device that requires more effort than it’s worth. The app frequently disconnects and even with throwing the app away it can take days before it connects. My dishwasher works great, but it would be better if I didn’t need this app to see how long I have left before the cycle is complete, when the salt supply or rinse aid are low, and filter needs cleaning. With the consistent disconnect from the device it’s frustrating to do regular maintenance that seemingly can only be done via app.

Remote start

Each time I want to use remote start, it doesn’t make sense because I have to enable it on my dishwasher for each load. It’s not a one and done thing.

Less app

I don’t like having to use the app so much to set the cycle
