### 5/5 — Life altering

*2026-02-17, version 1.0.5*

Between the mattress and the smart base it has changed my life, sleep and health.  I have degenerative disc and arthritis as well as numerous fractured disc’s.  So I do mean LIFE ALTERING.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2026-02-04, version 1.0.5*

App keeps disconnecting from the bed then when I search again it can’t be found… few days later it’ll reconnect but it’s bs that it randomly disconnects from the bed my wife has never had this problem luckily but it’s annoying.

### 2/5 — More functionality

*2026-01-24, version 1.0.5*

I wish the app had the ability to auto put the bed in a certain position at a time. For example. Imagine being able to have the bed go into zero gravity  in the morning to wake you up. This should be simple to do through the app and wouldn’t cost anything. When building apps think of the consumer.  This would set the mattress apart from others. I have so many more ideas. Reach out #dobetter

### 1/5 — terrible

*2025-11-11, version 1.0.5*

never connected, doesn’t work half the time

### 4/5 — Great but needs Apple Watch option

*2025-10-24, version 1.0.5*

App works great from my iPhone. I gave 4 stars because it could be better by allowing control from Apple Watch. It would be nice to use from my Apple Watch and not have to struggle to reach back to my nightstand for my phone. Please work on that feature!

### 5/5 — Increases my functionality

*2025-03-26, version 1.0.5*

I am a quadriplegic man and this base was purchased for me to allow me to be more functional with my voice. It works perfectly with my iPhone and I can use my voice to make any adjustments and even easily edit the presets! I'm very satisfied with this product! I would recommend it to everyone.

### 3/5 — PLEASE UPDATE APP FOR BETTER MASSAGE OPTIONS

*2025-01-14, version 1.0.5*

The only down side to this bed frame is the massage is only able to go for 30 minutes max without you having to restart it. Also it only has a low, medium, high (the medium and high frequencies are useless in my opinion) setting and the motors are NOT synchronized so you can’t get that wave feel without manually timing the motors each time.  I like the low drone vibration wave feel when I can get it to do it by manually timing the head and foot motors, I just wish it had a setting to do it automatically. That’s my only gripe about the bed platform/frame.

### 4/5 — Please add landscape mode

*2024-11-19, version 1.0.5*

I wish it hand landscape mode, it’s otherwise great. They recently fixed the memory preset saving so that works now.

### 1/5 — Won’t ever connect

*2024-08-02, version 1.0.5*

For how expensive this base was it’s disappointing that it NEVER connects

### 5/5 — Simple

*2024-05-21, version 1.0.5*

No more looking for remote everyone has their phone close by and it’s simple just open app and you have everything bed will do and it’s lit up and you can see it!!
