### 4/5 — Thank you for Dark mode!

*2026-07-30*

Thanks for listening to feedback and enabling dark mode. When working late at night this is a must have feature.

### 1/5 — Horrible update

*2026-05-24, version 2.27.1*

App now ignores dark mode settings and forces an ugly unbearable blinding bright white.
Taking away the most popular feature (dark mode) and adding the most hated which is ai junk no one wants.
Before this update the app worked well and looked good.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2026-05-14, version 2.27.0*

I really like this app and the move to AI helps to manage the overly-complex user interface.

Please add ‘check for firmware update’ to the list of AI commands

### 2/5 — Bring back dark mode

*2026-02-16*

System followed dark mode is gone with no discernible way to get it back.

### 2/5 — What happened to Device Light/Dark Mode?

*2026-02-05*

This latest update disabled following system light/dark mode.  Please fix this.  Otherwise the functionality looks the same.

### 2/5 — Sorely in need of an update

*2025-11-07, version 2.25.4*

Clunky, bare-bones functionality. Yes, you can manage your QNAP NAS. No, you won’t enjoy the experience.

### 3/5 — Needs a bug update

*2025-03-12*

Ever since updating my iPad to 18.3 this app likes to randomly crash, just spontaneously closes without warning. 
Also download station looses connection to the server any time I switch away and return to the app.

iPad mini 6 iOS 18.3.2

### 1/5 — Can’t login

*2025-02-10, version 2.23.0*

Can’t login when 2 factor authentication is enabled. 

The keyboard comes up when prompted to enter the code but the action buttons are behind the keyboard.

### 1/5 — Insanely slow still

*2025-01-16*

I feel like I’m using this app on dial-up internet in the 1990s. It’s so slow to startup and report anything, while being on the same LAN. Do better QNAP.

### 5/5 — Lots of updates

*2025-01-09*

This app has been updated plenty in the last 5 years, and now I’m able to get NAS push notifications, see the status, monitor resources, manage my docker containers, and see the realtime status of my backup jobs, and probably more that I personally don’t use!
