### 4/5 — Freezing

*2023-07-09, version 21.1.3*

Great app but for some reason it is currently freezing when trying to scroll up a long list of devices. Reinstalled and still the same. Fingers crossed for a fix soon. :)

### 3/5 — App Freezing

*2023-06-29, version 21.1.3*

Hi app now lock when scrolling on iPhone after last update

### 3/5 — prtg

*2023-06-18, version 21.1.3*

The application interface cannot be moved

### 1/5 — Unusable in dark made

*2022-09-27, version 21.1.1*

I use dark mode on my iPhone and all my apps work great. But PRTG is awful, black writing on a dark grey background is unusable, such a pity.

### 1/5 — SSO feature missing

*2022-05-12, version 21.1.1*

Unable to login with SSO in the app, option is missing completely.

### 4/5 — SAML Support

*2021-10-26, version 21.1.1*

Please add saml support - many thanks!

### 4/5 — Last update broke the widget.

*2021-09-09, version 21.1.0*

Love PRTG but the last update broke the widget again.

### 4/5 — Fantastic App!  But… needs true dark mode support

*2021-07-02, version 21.0.0*

The app is great, but the widgets really do not work well with dark mode which I find quite annoying.  Once that is sorted its 5* from me!

### 4/5 — Excellent

*2021-03-13, version 20.3.1*

Well done and checks all the boxes I need for monitoring on the go.  Widgets appear to not be working on iOS 14.4.1; they come up as blank boxes.  If this gets fixed, easily 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Good but Missing an Important Feature

*2021-01-21, version 20.3.0*

I work for a company that heavily utilizes PRTG with over 20,000 sensors. Given that many every once and a while PRTG will throw false alarms because it simply didn’t receive a packet, some weird WMI error, etc.

To make this app useful, it really needs the “Scan Now” button present on the full browser version. I’d much prefer tapping it on my phone at 3AM than having to get up, log into my computer, just to tap “Scan Now” and watch it go away.

### 1/5 — App Freezing

*2020-12-28, version 20.3.0*

App freezes when selecting a sensor after launching. Can’t actually see any of my sensors or interact with them. I’m on iOS 14.2.1 and app version 20.3.0.

### 2/5 — Normally Brilliant

*2020-12-24, version 20.3.0*

Normally the app works flawlessly and it’s tremendously helpful, but after the recent update anytime i search for sensors the app freezes and become unresponsive. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling this hadn’t helped.

### 2/5 — Needs an update

*2020-12-13, version 20.3.0*

App freezes when trying to view certain sensors. I have iPhone 12 with iOS 14.2.1.

### 2/5 — Great when it works

*2020-11-09, version 20.2.3*

App constantly freezes.
