Terrible

No se puede acceder más a la app. Tengo que usar Director 😔

absolutely useless

QR code won’t scan. App activates the camera light which results in glare from the label. Won’t clarify image when getting closer due to wrong camera selected. Go to enter manual details, filled out all three fields correctly and the Submit button never even enables. Worthless trash.

Charges $40/year to use products you own

Insteon products are 3x more expensive than competitor products and the competition doesn't charge subscription fees. Insteon was free to use when I bought their products. Now they charge an annual subscribed. I'm really glad I don't have too many of their devices.

No se deja loquear y se pierde toda la información

Este equipo no tiene buen soporte y luego que se sale del app, es imposible volver a entrar por el app. No se encuentra buen soporte para ingresar de nuevo

App functions

I have been at the loading login for 3hours. I uninstalled it and re installed it. I restarted my network. I restarted my phone. I tried on a different device. The app will not work. I downloaded the OWLR app and my camera isn’t compatible with it. I tried the other Insteon app but the password will not go through.
