### 2/5 — Not working properly

*2026-08-18, version 3.56*

App not working properly

### 3/5 — Estado incorrecto / incorrect status

*2026-08-16, version 3.56*

La app no muestra el estado real de la alarma. Muestra armado y en realidad esta desarmada o viceversa
Por mas que se doy actualizar sigue marcado el estado erróneo

The app doesn't show the actual alarm status. It shows it as armed when it's actually disarmed, or vice versa.
Even after refreshing, it still displays the incorrect status.

### 1/5 — Δεν κρατάει τα ονόματα από τις ζώνες

*2026-08-13, version 3.56*

Βάζω τα ονόματα από τις ζώνες και μετά για να εμφανιστούν πρέπει να ανοιγοκλείνω την λίστα. Μετά από κάποιες μέρες εξαφανίζονται τελείως τα ονόματα και παραπέμπουν μόνο τα νούμερα. Χρειάζεται άμεσα φτιάξιμο

El 99% de las veces es muy funcional y no me falla… solo a veces que me imagino que están dando mantenimiento o actualización al sistema es cuando hace eso

*2026-06-06, version 3.55*
