Full of bugs

I don’t know how it got through a review process

Maybe we are all just….

Children of the stars

Poor UX, full of bugs

1. To enter IoT hub connection string manually (copy-paste) one first needs to select Scan QR Code option. 2. It is uneasy to copy-paste IoT Hub connection string and connect manually on iPhone. The problem is that after pasting the connection string there is DONE button to make the keyboard go away while Connect button is at the bottom, behind the keyboard. 3. App does not receive IoT Hub messages 4. Configured using IoT Hub connection string sends only barometric data every 1s, despite delivery interval in settings is configured for 45s

VIRUS!!! No support!

Synchronize viruses in ALL DEVICES and you can’t reach support for 100 subscription fee product
Outrageous

Awesome Features but ..manual upload.

The app is an awesome way to convert your cellphone into an IoT device but the app needs to be opened everything you want to upload the telemetry. That’s after I have given it permissions to location(always). Seems like the app does not work in the background to update locations.
