### 1/5 — Moving parts and then some!

*2025-07-04, version 2025.0*

There are SO many moving parts to this app, I am now sure someone from the mainframe days designed this. Zones, Sources, digital binding EVERYTHING requires one to go to some wall and press a button. Hey Security, right?? Or some other lame reason, except do the job this app is assigned to do. This has been a many thousands mistake. A company like Le Grand shouldn’t have an app like this

### 1/5 — Update horrible

*2025-06-14, version 2023.0*

Now can’t even connect.  App is horrible

### 1/5 — Garbage app

*2025-05-19, version 2023.0*

Looks like they never invested in this app and clearly gave up on it, it’s pure trash.

### 1/5 — Stopped Connecting to digital source

*2024-01-11, version 2023.0*

This system does not work. Stopped connecting to digital source. Not working at all. Have uninstalled and reinstalled several times.

### 4/5 — Digital Audio System

*2023-12-10, version 2023.0*

I upgraded  to this system from the old analog system and we use it everyday. Just found out the parts are discontinued but with al the homes out there with this installed I hope it stays alive for a long time.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2023-11-23, version 2023.0*

I’ve had this system for 6 years and the app never works.  I can only use the bluetooth and wall panel so I can only use it in the room where the bluetooth connection is.  The app doesn’t work and is impossible to reconnect. And when it rarely works it doesn’t recognize any music or apps on my phone. It’s junk.

### 1/5 — STILL AWFUL

*2023-09-23, version 2022.1*

Never works even with different Wi_Fi set ups. Always an excuse when you call for service.

### 1/5 — Class action lawsuit?

*2023-09-01, version 2022.1*

Sounds like we all have the same issue after paying Guardian thousands for installation. How do we pursue a class action suit? Maybe that will get someone’s attention.

### 1/5 — distribution module not found

*2023-07-31, version 2022.1*

Does not work at all. Totally useless now. Huge waste of money. Shame on guardian and Ryan home.

### 1/5 — LeGrand Audio PLEASE MAKE A UPDATE TO BE ABLE TO CONNECT BLUETOOTH ON IPHONE

*2023-06-29, version 2022.1*

WONT CONNECT TO BLUETOOTH, PLEASE UPDATE OR HELP
