### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-03-19*

Very buggy. Crashes constantly. Only works when you are on the network the spa is on. Basically worthless. The entire point of this PAID app to allow you to access the spa off the network. I’m wondering if this isn’t a scam.

**Developer response:** Good day,
The status LED on your module should be blue, allowing access from anywhere in the world as long as you have an internet connection. If the LED is green, then it can't communicate with our server. Contact us at techsupport@geckoal.com and we'll give you a few tips to bypass your firewall and allow communication with our server.
Best regards,

### 1/5 — This is bad ! I paid $$$ for the ability to use it

*2018-02-16*

I paid a lot to have this feature on my spa. And it doesn’t work

### 1/5 — 95% of the time dose not work

*2017-03-01*

This is a great idea if it ever works. Have the spa since last fall 2016.. for months the spa couldn't even maintain the connection with the router located 15' away form it. 6 months later... and a hand full of calls to the authorized dealer and now it connects but the app doesn't work. Not even the world version. 
Looks like they need a lot of work to make it functional :(

### 1/5 — Worked for 6 days

*2017-02-08*

Give my money back or fix the app. Expensive addition to my spa that doesn't work.

### 2/5 — Publicity in app sucks!!!

*2016-12-13, version 2.1.3*

Good app but they should remove flashing advertising.. very annoying !!!

### 3/5 — Needs some updating

*2016-11-03*

It works now, most of the time, but I wish they would improve the app, add features, and I wish they had an IFTTT channel.

### 2/5 — It's ok

*2016-09-30*

I wish they'd fine tune this some...
The temp adjustment seems finicky at times depending what device I'm on.
I wish they'd actually have a winter setting on here as that's really the sole purpose for buying the device and app. Also I wish there was a way to turn the filter on for a set period of time (TIMER) and not schedule it like letting it filter and circulate chemicals then getting your electric bill a few weeks later and 💩!
Lastly the WiFi connection does work for the remote app..

### 1/5 — Do not buy this app

*2016-09-20*

Requires you to be on the same wifi network. They basically lied about this. false advertising! Get the free home edition.
