### 4/5 — Useful & Friendly app

*2024-06-20*

I enjoy this app so thank you for the effort. Could you please add an option to disable screen rotation in the app? On both IOS and Android, the app gets silly if I rotate the phone and does not correctly render.

### 3/5 — Almost a Blynk replacement...

*2019-05-09*

This app has so much potential.  I wish you’d return to development.  Make it paid! I think the Blynk support is broken and I was bummed to see the Apple Watch support removed.  If those were both working it’d be 5 stars and a $5 purchase from me!  As it is I like the interface and the ability to change settings from the app while on the local network.
