### 5/5 — Love it!

*2019-05-02*

It works seamlessly with the hardware and I was up and running with sensor data in just a few seconds.

### 1/5 — These guys are a complete scam on Kickstarter!

*2018-06-16*

Do not in any form associate yourselves with these thieves. They have clearly stolen a lot of money from their kickstarter projects and given nothing in return. That’s all I can say...

### 1/5 — Don't expect their sensor to work

*2017-05-13*

Will all of a sudden just stop working. No connection. Company does nothing to fix their faulty device/app.

### 1/5 — App won't connect

*2017-05-13*

App will not connect. Device and app hardly work and can't get any support.

### 1/5 — Bad experience

*2017-05-13*

After having their pre-assembled product for a short amount of time, it would not connect to their app. There was no indication as to why this is so. 

It was so frustrating trying to get help from anybody from MbientLab - I would highly recommend that you do not use their product or services. If you do, expect no reliability and no support. The app will not connect to my device.

### 5/5 — Simple and easy to use

*2016-03-22*

This app helps a lot in basic usage. Custom Hz setting is very helpful. It can capture multiple sensors reading at once. Great job!
