User reviews

Kinda works

This app is truly terrible, I haven’t given it one star because sometimes it works and it can be helpful. I love the product and what it does but the app needs a lot of work. Bugs galore, plus it crashes constantly. If you click a link within the app, it opens their website but then you’re stuck on that page and cannot go back to the app. Super frustrating… they really need to dedicate more time to this app and their customer service, which is very problematic. Not as bad as Verizon’s but still. LoL

Doesn’t take text entry

Disappoint in the very first interaction where the app can’t even take typing into the email address field.

Testing? We don’t need no stinkin testing!

Smells like incompetence at best or fraud at worst

The company is knee-deep in issues. For years they’ve been taking pre-orders for their Hoobs Pro box without delivering any product or issuing refunds. Support is non-existent, and the founder has some pretty shady history.
The app doesn’t work.

Works Great for me!!

Not sure about the issues others have—this works GREAT for me.

No longer can control or have access my HOOBS box.

Forget HOOBS Pro! This app is the beginning of the end. Did you even have an alpha stage? Hopefully reflashing my SD card will fix. I started having problems with my HOOBS devices that’s how I made this unfortunate discovery.
