### 3/5 — Ditra

*2026-08-20, version 3.16*

Keeps saying device in use

### 2/5 — Please Add a Snooze Feature

*2026-07-31, version 3.16*

Decent app, but my word, please add a way to snooze notifications. The only way to stop it is to delete the app. Turning off notifications completely doesn’t even do the trick.

### 3/5 — Great when it works.

*2026-07-03, version 3.16*

Suddenly frequently getting message ‘The system is in use. Retry later’ - when it is not in use. Frustrating. Have tried reinstalling app and turning the whole system on and off. Mashes no difference. Then with no rhyme or reason it starts working again. So cannot go out without telecommande and no use if trying to monitor from a distance. Bug fix please!

### 1/5 — Worst doorbell app ever!

*2026-06-24, version 3.16*

Terrible app!  Only works 10% of the time. Always glitches. Doesn’t connect to the doorbell most of the time. Do not buy anything that requires this app!  Terrible.

### 1/5 — Hopeless

*2026-05-29, version 3.16*

Cannot get iphone to connect. This is a disgraceful app and I will never buy or recommend   Aiphone. A truly shocking user experience. Even trying to use the console directly is clunky.  To call it a piece of junk would be an understatement

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-05-29, version 3.16*

The slowest clunkiest app to open a gate or speak with intercom. Constantly says system in use when it’s not. I can wait 10min outside my house trying to make it connect. It doesn’t tell you the switch position to whether gate is open or close when using it remotely. You can’t tell if it’s worked or playing its usual games. 
I think it was designed in 1978.

### 1/5 — Horrible doorbell app

*2026-04-30, version 3.16*

If you have more than one person with app answering the door, it gets confused and you can’t access camera or open door.

### 4/5 — Broken by last update

*2026-03-30, version 3.16*

Last update reset the app and now I cannot add it to the station

*update was issued fairly quickly and fixed the issue. App is mostly stable

### 3/5 — Warning

*2026-03-29, version 3.15*

Stopped working, After upgrading to iOS 26.4,

### 1/5 — Newest update broke functionality

*2026-03-27, version 3.15*

The update that was just released in March 2026 has broken the app for me. I was not receiving any notifications of people ringing the doorbell at all after the update.

I tried to troubleshoot by removing my profile from the base station and re-adding it, but it times out every time I attempt to add the profile and I’ve tried it like 4 different times.
