### 3/5 — Issues syncing remote

*2026-06-21, version 2.3.13*

I want to love my Pergolux but I’ve been struggling with synching the remote. I’ve watched the help videos and no matter what I do, whenever I select either 1, 2, or 3, the louvers move, the lights turn on and the heater turns on. I can’t get each to align with its own number. So I always have to have the lights on when the Louvers are open, and can’t have the lights on when louvers closed.

### 2/5 — Tracking Order sucks

*2026-06-21, version 2.3.13*

Tracking the order thru “shop” is impossible.  The app is not user friendly for tracking.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect

*2026-04-14, version 2.3.9*

The pergola says it is connected, but it really is not. It doesn’t control the louvers or the LED lights on my sundream S3. Also I can’t get it to integrate with Alexa, even though it is a matter device.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-04-12, version 2.3.9*

Spent $6k on a pergola for the app to not work nor even connect to my pergola. If I could give this zero stars I would.

### 2/5 — Can’t create a profile.

*2026-04-10, version 2.3.9*

?  Can’t create a profile.  If that is so hard can’t imagine the important things on my PERGOLUX I would like to control!

### 1/5 — Broken junk

*2026-03-30, version 2.3.7*

Won’t control pergola.  Spent $800 to “upgrade” to the “smart” controller.  Doesn’t connect to HomeKit, the Pergolux app allows you to toggle and slide things but there’s no effect on the device.  Really disheartening.  I love my pergola but the remote is trash.  Wanted a better solution and got more trash.

### 1/5 — Connection

*2026-02-12, version 2.3.6*

The app loses connection. And you have to re-add it

### 1/5 — Love the pergola, hate the app

*2026-02-09*

Frustratingly inconsistent in its ability to connect with the pergola. Very annoying to use in general.

### 2/5 — Remote has poor range

*2026-01-23, version 2.3.6*

Unfortunately, you have to be within 10 feet of the module in order for the control system to function correctly. Most of the time it doesn’t.

### 2/5 — FIX YOUR APP - Great Pergola

*2025-12-05, version 2.3.5*

What are you thinking? My beautiful pergola can withstand hurricane force winds but I can’t even create an account on your broken app?  I need to set schedules, link it with other smart devices (as promised for the matter version I upgraded to) and figure out how to auto close for rain.  These are basic functions I paid extra for, you should be ashamed of yourselves for selling features that you know don’t work.  FIX YOUR APP and allow your fans that enjoy your product stop hating you for something you have the ability to correct if you made it a priority.  Poor leadership at some level in this company.

### 1/5 — Läuft nicht

*2025-11-25, version 2.3.5*

Die App funktioniert nicht

### 1/5 — Pas au point, application faite par un apprenti

*2025-11-23, version 2.3.5*

Combien de temps doit-on attendre avant de rentrer dans l’application, car une fois le login et le mot de passe inscrits, la home page reste et tourne en boucle sans entrer dans l’application. Il faut alors appuyer sur back (pour revenir sur la page d’avant) pour entrer dans l’application ! Gros bug à corrigé !

### 1/5 — Datenschutz - langsame App.

*2025-11-11, version 2.3.5*

Ich würde gerne wissen, welche Server von der App angesprochen werden. Ich blocke durch ein pihole u.a. chinesische Server. Daher startet die App nicht bei eingeschaltetem Werbeblocker.

Die App selbst ist rudimentär aufgebaut.
Leider sehr langsam und verliert häufig die Verbindung zu den Pergolen.
Die Einstellungen werden nicht im Konto gespeichert. Nach dem Anmelden sind die vorausgewählten RGB Farben zurückgesetzt.

### 1/5 — App does NOT work

*2025-11-11*

They changed the ratings. Several people have complained that the app simply does NOT work

### 1/5 — Application nulle

*2025-11-11, version 2.3.5*

Je n’arrive pas à utiliser correctement l’application qui ne fonctionne pas!!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-06-21, version 2.3.13*

It only connects if I hold my phone directly under the control unit but then it’s useless because we have RGB lights but it thinks we have the white lights and it won’t even turn them on let alone adjust them

### 1/5 — N/A

*2026-06-19, version 2.3.13*

I should not have to have an app to access my pergola’s instructions.  How can that be that important to you all?

### 1/5 — App is useless for Pergola Control

*2026-06-12, version 2.3.13*

The pergola is very nice. But the app only connects to it on rare occasion. I’m clearly not the only one with this issue. This smart connectivity was sold as a feature of the pergola.  Please fix the app, or remove smart functionality from your marketing.

### 1/5 — Won't pair

*2026-05-28, version 2.3.10*

Frustrating, can't pair control unit to iPhone and there is NO TECH SUPPORT

### 1/5 — Expensive rubbish

*2026-05-23, version 2.3.10*

Right next to router and still doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Exceedingly disappointing app

*2026-05-20, version 2.3.10*

For a company this focused on quality equipment design and manufacturing. This app is essentially useless. Extremely unreliable connections. I’m forced to restart it several times before it will connect to my lights or control system.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-05-18, version 2.3.10*

Bad connection. Constant repairs for pergolux… not happy

### 1/5 — It just doesn’t work

*2026-05-11, version 2.3.10*

The louvre’s slider control, when it works at all, is hard to set to the desired position. You can be as close to as 20-30% accurate. 

No idea why the color wheel is there at all. The selected color, when it works, is not even close to what the LED shows.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2026-05-09, version 2.3.10*

Consistently loses connection. It’s not usable.

### 1/5 — Fix the app!

*2026-04-30, version 2.3.9*

It doesn’t work!!

Gut durchdachte App- sehr übersichtlich.

### 5/5 — Helpful app for a smooth building!

*2025-11-06, version 2.3.4*

Don’t fret the mounting, easy-peasy with the App and amazing videos. 
Love my pergola 🙏✨

### 5/5 — Pergolux Skydance

*2025-11-06, version 2.3.4*

Fonctionne parfaitement ; super pratique

### 5/5 — Hyper simple à utiliser !

*2025-11-06, version 2.3.4*

App au top, facile à prendre en main

### 5/5 — Beautiful & Solid

*2025-10-23, version 2.3.4*

After getting our pergola installed, I was very pleased with beautiful and solid our PERGOLUX Skydance S3 was. We got it in just in time for winter, so I am excited to see how it handles the weight of the snow we get here in the mountains.

### 5/5 — Decent

*2025-10-01, version 2.3.1*

Works

### 5/5 — Updated App revamped!!

*2025-09-26, version 2.3.1*

I love how Pergolux has updated their app since the S3! Manuals and videos are easy to find and view for building my pergola!!

### 5/5 — Love my Pergola

*2025-09-25, version 2.3.1*

Bought my pergola in August and the app made it super simple to setup. Manuals were very helpful!

### 5/5 — Useless

*2025-09-24, version 2.2.2*

I couldn’t agree more with the other reviews. Spent a ton of money on the pergolux which is amazing but you can’t use the app and the remote is from 1992. It wouldn’t let me make an account and it will never connect. Amazing pergola, absolutely horrible instructions and terrible remote.

### 5/5 — Not working

*2025-08-26, version 2.1.0*

This app does nothing!!!
