### 1/5 — Reagiert nicht

*2025-01-03, version 1.8.23*

Beim starten erkennt die App voll automatisch mein Gateway aber reagiert dann nur sporadisch auf Eingaben. Passworteingabe für die Anmeldung ist damit unmöglich. 

Schade, ich hätte die App gern genutzt.

### 1/5 — Schrott

*2024-08-13, version 1.8.23*

App bleibt unter iOS ständig hängen! Nicht zu gebrauchen!

### 4/5 — Verbesserung bei Appstart

*2024-06-11, version 1.8.23*

Ich nutze die App seit erscheinen und bin sehr dankbar mich mehr über die Weboberfläche am Smartphone zu steuern.

Seit irgendeinem Update hat sich der Fehler eingeschlichen, das wenn man beim Schließen der App sich vorher nicht abmeldet, dich nicht ohne weiteres wieder anmelden kann da der Bildschirm weiß bleibt.
Erst ein mehrmaliges Neustart der App hilft aber nur über Gateway suchen. Vielleicht kann hier noch nach gebessert werden.

### 3/5 — Easy to use, needs updating

*2024-04-21*

It an easy to use app for managing all your light switches, light bulbs, or outlets/plugs. 
However, asking to login every time I pull up the app? A bit too much. I want to turn on the lights not to make a payment to the bank. 
Setting up the RaspberryPi with Raspbee II adapter took a half day of flashing cards, changing Pi’s (from 2 to 3). HomeAssistant does not recognize the adapter so I had to build another Pi with their own pre-built image.  Not for the faint of heart. 
The app also locks out or doesn’t do anything when trying to edit lights or groups. Not sure what to do. Logout and log back in didn’t work. 

I’ll probably contact support but I spent 30$ on the adapter, 40$ on outlets, another 50$ on Pi and additional stuff. 

This is supposed to be a contained ecosystem disconnected from private clouds which it is. That’s the good part. Amazon, Nest, Wyze,Lutron etc cannot get your data or see when you’re turning your lights on or off. But, man, if you’re providing built images do it right. Clearly this is not for grandma to setup.

**Developer response:** You need to make a setting in a file for the UART on the Home Assistant image to run the RaspBee II on the same Raspberry Pi as Home Assistant. Please contact our support for details.

### 1/5 — Geht nicht

*2024-02-19, version 1.7.17*

Öffnet die App aber dann passiert garnichts mehr - Müll (:

### 1/5 — App auf iOS sehr instabil

*2024-01-13, version 1.7.17*

Leider lässt sich mit der App nicht arbeiten. Beim Szenen erstellen schmiert er ab und man muss oft von vorne anfangen. Lampen suchen klappt gar nicht. Über den Browser funktioniert es.

### 4/5 — Paar Kleinigkeiten/Fixes fehlen

*2024-01-08, version 1.7.17*

1. Zurück Button auf die Übersichtsseite der Gateways
2. A record/CNAME statt nur IP für die manuelle Gateway konfig
3. Die App hängt ab und an in nem white screen fest- nur senkrechte und horizontale scrollbalken sind vorhanden. Jetzt grade hilft weder app neu starten noch netzwerkwechsel was. Vmtl smartphone neustart dann..

### 4/5 — Sieht schon gut aus …

*2023-12-19, version 1.7.17*

Leider fehlt die Sensorsteuerung bei den Gruppen

### 5/5 — endlich nativ die Phoscon App nutzen

*2023-10-19, version 1.013*

Toll dass es die bekannte Phoscon WebApp jetzt als native iPhone App gibt. Nun bleibt das Passwort dauerhaft gespeichert und es werden weitere Funktionen wie Widgets möglich. Ich bin gespannt wie sich die App weiter entwickelt.
