### 2/5 — In desperate need of a replacement motor modular or two or three.

*2025-03-29*

I’ll pay you big bucks or at least double what they cost plus shipping and your time because I spent ten grand on getting these specific blinds custom fit to all of my windows.  Do I regret not spending the extra 5099 and getting the Lytton shades? Absolutely. But less than a year after I installed them done if the larger windows had motors that started to fail.  It wasn’t so bad at first cus the motor modules were pretty cheap and I figured eventually they would have that Google home integration that the box advertised as “coming soon to Alexa and Google home !” Yeah right false advertising. Anyway as you all know these were discontinued like three years ago now and Lutron doesn’t make any blinds that match these and obviously to sell the house I need to have all the blinds matching and last but not least another 15 grand to replace all the blinds in my house because one motor is broken is just not feasible right now.  Any help would be greatly appreciated also this app is bad but bit the literal worst. .

### 2/5 — Frustrated

*2024-05-04*

The blinds are great. They have worked well with no problems for years.The app is terrible and frustrating. It freezes up and you have to delete the app and reinstall it again in order to move forward to the calibration stage.  If you get these blinds just pray you never have to take them down and put them up again. It will stress you out!!!

### 1/5 — Update?

*2023-11-17*

When is there going to be in update? This app is in serious need of updating!

### 1/5 — So much potential, great price point…

*2023-06-01*

The shade themselves are pretty good.  Well worth the money spent.  The App?  Absolute garbage.  We’ve had our shades over a year.  Frequent loss of pairing, re-calibration and function.  Why have there been ZERO updates to the app for over three years?  Where is the “promised” (it is listed in their FAQ that Alexa/Google interface is projected for future development) interface?  No update effort at ALL by the developer.  That Home Depot still sells these shades and apparently has done nothing to assist their customers pressure the developer to correct the app is very bad business.

### 4/5 — Hardware works perfectly. No regrets. Software could be improved

*2023-03-12*

From all the nightmares and hassles people have with automatic blinds, this solution is one of the best. 
The price is the most affordable one. The platform that allows to use motorize or not, well design. 
I made the mistake of not purchasing the remote control. I can not find one by it self. 
The application does not allow connectivity though Home automation. But you can schedule them using the app. The app connect using Bluetooth only.  You set your schedule and that’s it. It has been 3 years or so , and the blinds still open and closed. One of them gets out of sync in time (somehow the clock runs faster in that one ). 
The app needs update. Possible to invent a hub for home automation. 
But in general I am happy with the solution.

### 1/5 — The app is horrible

*2022-11-19*

Has this even been updated ever?

### 1/5 — App interface is garbage!

*2022-09-18*

Like others have said the motor itself works well. It’s the app that’s garbage. It unpairs, will not repair. I deleted the app reinstalled-tried to get it all going again and the app tells me my Bluetooth is not connected(it is) and I cannot move on from that frustrating spot. Horrible app!!! Do not buy these motors unless you buy the remote.

### 1/5 — Most frustrating app

*2022-09-06*

This app is the most frustrating app ever. It looks like the last update was 2 years ago, so it seems this company does not care at all. It could be so great, what a shame.

### 1/5 — Unsupported app

*2022-03-17*

The app has not been updated in over 2 years and there is no way to contact the dev. Clicking on Support directs you to the home page for all product at Home Depot. 
To use, open app then wait for the blinds to finish connecting then they will work. The scheduling is not based on sunrise or sunset, just specific times of day.

### 2/5 — It works, not much else

*2022-02-05*

Open app, select room where shades are then tap each shade to connect. Then you can set a very basic schedule. The schedule can’t use sunrise or sunset, just a specific time of day. If you click on the support link, it opens a Home Depot webpage showing product. No way to contact support.
