Multi Piper cams

Ice have had 4 Piper cameras, several Zwave lights, several motion detectors. When power goes out and comes back, sometimes Piper recovers well. Lately I’m not sure what is going on.
On October 20th something changed and the app says Piper is offline, usually I do a power off, wait, wait and then power on and it comes back.
I have spent allllll day doing resets, factory resets, setups and nothing is finishing. I had messages that passwords, that have been in use are not valid. So far I can’t recover my Piper system.
I’m not even sure Piper support is out there anymore. I’ve tried calling the support number and it always rings busy.
Not very happy with my system anymore. Lots of investment in Piper supported lights, motion detectors, and it’s all crap now

Deprecated - still works

App, website and product are all outdated. The company disbanded.

However, if you have the device and this app, it still works fine. IFTTT support is gone.

Stealing passwords/data from clipboard!

Opening the Piper app shows an iOS 14 notification “Piper pasted from xxxxx” (whatever app you last copied something from). This is a well known vulnerability which Apple refuses to address, and iControl Networks doesn’t care to update over the last 2 years. The company that bought them out doesn’t even sell product anymore, just collecting our passwords and other data via this sneaky app.

Oh and we lost IFTTT implementation when the company sold out too. Terrible.

Recent Problems Fixed

I was also experiencing problems with my Piper this week but I received updates and assistance from customer service. My system is back online.

Other people are wrong!!!

If you unplug piper, the alarm keeps going, because it has batteries. It is easy to setup, and it makes you feel safe.
