User reviews

Barely loads

The app barely ever loads. It spins and spins and spins. When it finally does load it rarely ever applies the settings. I’m trying to use parental controls and it will take about 20 minutes of trying just to get the app to load, and then for the settings to finally work.

Utter junk

It’s hard to believe that a company as big as Linksys (aka Belkin) who are still operating and still selling routers could possibly make an app as bad as this. It is utterly useless and completely broken. It hasn’t been updated for years and it still remains the only way to control the devices they are STILL SELLING. If you haven’t already invested in Linksys routers, DON’T! If you have, you have my sympathies. If you work for Linksys and you’re reading this, FOR GODS SAKE SORT OUT YOUR APP, it’s embarrassing!
