Bug fixes and performance improvements

User reviews

Unreliable

We get very frustrated when using the app to put our heating on as the flame light comes up to say it is activating and heating should come on - then you look a while later and it is back off again or flame indicator is off and the boiler has not come on. Very unpredictable

Awful

It’s awful. Doesn’t work, each function has to be done twice to work . Doesn’t connect frequently

Useless wireless connection

Changed WiFi and now stopped working

Very poor app

Absolutely useless! The navien app often fails to load on my iphone and the navien boiler regularly displays a fault of a blocked exhaust port. Which is a design fault apparently. I would not recommend navien to anybody. Rubbish.

Fails

Not good, wouldn’t recommend. You wait for it to connect, no problem, you input a temperature, it’s loads, no problem, you think it’s working, it’s not.

FAQ

What does the Navien Smart Plus app do?

The Navien Smart Plus app allows you to control your home's heating and hot water system remotely from anywhere. You can check the status of your heating, monitor energy consumption, and set schedules to ensure your home is always at the desired temperature.

What are the main features of the Navien Smart Plus app?

Key features include remote control of heating and hot water, an easy-view energy usage monitor, accurate weather-adaptive forecasts, intelligent learning for hot water schedules, geofencing based on your location, and multizone control for up to three zones.

Is the Navien Smart Plus app free to use?

Based on the provided information, the app itself is free to download and use. However, it requires a compatible Navien Smart Plus Thermostat and registration to function.

What devices is the Navien Smart Plus app compatible with?

The app is designed to work with the Smart Plus Thermostat, which is compatible with Navien LCB700 and NCB-CE boiler series models. You will need to register your Smart Plus Thermostat within the app to use its features.

How does geofencing work with this app?

Geofencing uses your smartphone's location data to automatically adjust your heating. The app collects location data even when closed or not in use to determine when you are near home, turning your heating on or off accordingly to avoid heating an empty house or returning to a cold home.
