Drains your iPhone battery

Great app to control your shades, but the app drains your iPhone battery. Battery logs on my iPhone 17 Pro show over 40% battery consumption and over 10 hours of background activity. How is this even possible when Background App Refresh is disabled?

Horrible horrible

This application is absolutely horrible! You can spend 15 to 45 minutes programming a single room to work with the app. It will work one maybe two times and then completely stops working. It may work in the morning but won’t work in the afternoon or vice versa.

The developers clearly did not go through enough beta testing to determine what the issues are with the app. And, when combined with Hunter Douglas’s GEN three Gateway, it is even worse. The program is inaccurate, non-responsive, and fails completely. If I could give it -5 I would.

User beware!

Amazing product

This product is the easiest product to operate for the consumer. It has the best versatility and ease for the consumer to change scenes at a shade set limits. They don’t need the store or an expensive technician to do this. I love this product. Use it every day.

Awful App - DO NOT BUY THESE BLINDS

You just be joking. The app constantly loses connection. And I've been scammed to get two gateways that rarely work. All I get is errors half the times. NOT WORTH IT.
