Have they just left us?

This app gas always been buggy and hasn’t been updated in a year. That’s pathetic.

Good gone bad

Not sure what’s going but really starting to wonder about this product. It seemed good as it was much more open then other platforms but for the last two weeks the app is just useless, just opens and crashes right away. The legacy app works better than the new one!! Time to start looking at other options I think.

Used to work…..now…not so much

Everytime I open, it says it can’t find hub instead of just going directly to dashboard. I have to go back to hub and find dashboards again and back in. It’s pain. Will have to find something else

Garbage

This app is just as bad as the new Hubitat app.
Freezes, crashes and does not work as described.

UI needs work

It seems to be pretty much functional, but the UI a lot of improvement. And it needs a detailed manual.
