### 2/5 — Garage timer

*2026-07-22, version 1.16.1*

Keeps indicating the garage is open and asks me to set the timer. It doesn't acknowledge Regardless of what I give and always ends up showing that the garage is open. At least the pervious version - ehomelife used to work, this migration has just made it worse.

### 3/5 — The idea of this device is really good

*2026-06-28, version 1.16.1*

However, it’s been losing features over the time, like you have to be connected to the WiFi or your house to open the garage, and I cannot make the button of CarPlay work anymore.

### 4/5 — Insight of home

*2026-06-27, version 1.16.1*

Device works well a little confusing with how the channels are setup at first but the software allows you to change the channels that the device has pre-named.  Wish they could make a graph of usage. Currently they only allow you to view each circuit by numerical values. Unless you click on the individual channel. Then you can see a graph. The software allows you to rename each channel and slide them up or down to your preferred location, allowing you to monitor the circuits that use more electricity. Setup is simple to accomplish short of the line side of power coming in, as you must connect the cts around the power line entering the house, of course. Software is rather good hardware is industrial. You must be able to connect the monitor to 2 spare circuits for reference.

### 2/5 — Confusing interface

*2026-03-15, version 1.15.3*

Cool product but the app interface is a very confusing. Why not add the ability to make custom names. Are we suppose to memorize the letters that correspond to different parts on the breaker? Without that ability this app requires extra work and not something you can easily look at while on the go.

### 4/5 — Smart plug

*2026-03-05, version 1.15.3*

Does what it is meant to do, on-off and energy efficiency recording. What more can I want from a wifi plugin controller!

### 4/5 — Great for gathering data!

*2026-01-22, version 1.15.3*

This really shows where your usage is so that you can keep an eye on things and make more informed decisions. Great for tracking EV charging too!

### 4/5 — Good app. HA integration issues

*2025-12-13, version 1.15.2*

The app by itself is good but HA integration doesn’t work. NMAP shows no listening ports on the device even with latest firmware. The HA integration assistant relies on auto discovery that kept failing. There is no way to manually override with IP details. Debug logging is also not easy.

### 4/5 — Works, but could use S/W updates

*2025-11-27, version 1.15.1*

It works, but ALL of the CTs are backwards; either the labels are wrong, the wiring is wrong, or the software is wrong (I am an electrical engineer).  Still, it is an easy fix to set Current Factor to -1.

It would be great if the software was updated so the Merge Channel had an option to display each channel current separately for a/b/c; the present total current is the sum of all currents, which is misleading for a 240 Vac circuit, and worse for a 208 Vac, 3 phase circuit.

### 5/5 — Garage Door Opener

*2025-11-15, version 1.15.0*

Easy to install and use!

### 4/5 — Great garage opener

*2025-10-19, version 1.14.0*

It works very well and especially useful when away from home, not the garage is closed or not.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-10-18, version 1.14.0*

The smart sockets are great and the automation is brilliant

### 5/5 — Wow! Super easy to install, and the setup was a breeze. The app works like a charm!

*2025-10-16, version 1.14.0*

Definitely recommended!

### 5/5 — Garage door

*2025-09-29, version 1.14.0*

Excellent

### 3/5 — Not the most intuitive application.

*2025-09-28, version 1.14.0*

I found that the app performed the functions that were necessary, but that’s it. It leave a lot of room for improvement on the table. Appreciate the effort though.

### 5/5 — A.Farhan

*2025-09-16, version 1.14.0*

Excellent application but need to add more services like adding users so the main user can recognize the users.

### 5/5 — Super!

*2025-09-13, version 1.14.0*

Super pratique et facile d’installation. 😘

### 4/5 — EM16

*2025-09-13, version 1.14.0*

Pretty basic app for the em16 energy monitor. I wish it looked more like the Sense app. Would be nice to also be able to rename the individual CTs so I don’t have to reference my picture of what each CT is. Merging lets you label a 240v pair, but for the single CTs, you’re stuck with 1-5 and no way to tell at a glance what each one is

### 1/5 — Bad design

*2026-03-19, version 1.16.0*

Why do you use a modal popup to indicate a connection failure?

If you do not understand why this is bad, please hire someone competent who does. Idiotic.

### 1/5 — Enjoy your SPAM

*2026-01-16, version 1.15.3*

As soon as I signed up for this app I started getting a daily barrage of spam into my inbox. I had done nothing else with my email for weeks previous to this. 

 I’m just saying, if you absolutely need to use this, I strongly suggest you use a dummy account for signing into Refoss.

### 1/5 — Horrendous

*2025-11-08, version 1.15.0*

Tried and tried and tried and tired… but the app is complicated and unhelpful, if you do read this then I would recommend buying any of this companies products

### 1/5 — Virtually useless

*2025-01-29, version 1.10.0*

All I get is failure failure failure

### 1/5 — Fatal

*2024-12-21*

Tengo un sistema para abrir la puerta del garaje y sé que pillado bastantes veces. 
Cuando tengo la puerta cerrada en el historial marca que la puerta se cerró abres la app y aparece la puerta abierta y le das empieza a hacer que se está cerrando y como no puede cerrar la puerta da fallo y encima no se pone cerrada para que pueda abrirla le e escrito varias veces y lo único que hacen es decir que lo sienten y que revises las conexiones a internet y que haya luz etc…
Esta gente no piensan que antes de escribir revisamos eso de porque no funciona 
Fatal todo cada día más descontento

### 1/5 — “Your Refoss app is  out of date…”

*2024-11-18, version 1.9.0*

“Your Refoss app is  out of date. Please update it to implement this feature.” This dialog appears and there’s no update to “implement”. This app has always been so buggy, and it makes me wonder what sort of. Stuff it’s secretly doing in the background? My trust level is on a spiral down. My IT friend is coming over to run a few diagnostics on my network to see if there are some spying going on. I will update after.

### 1/5 — Widget no compatible

*2024-09-24*

El widget ha dejado de funcionar con iOS 18

### 1/5 — Forced to change from meross

*2024-09-21, version 1.7.0*

The widget is gone, have to open the app every time o need to open garage. Why??? It’s worked great for years now a pain. Where did the widget go?
Why “update” to downgrade?

### 1/5 — Widget doesn’t work on IOS18

*2024-09-21, version 1.7.0*

Widgets are not available in ios18. Tried deleting and re-adding but to no avail. Please update your code to function with the new ios18 widgets. Works fine on the Apple Watch thankfully still.

### 1/5 — Widget not working (disappeared) ios18

*2024-09-18, version 1.7.0*

As title , please update widget for ios18

### 5/5 — Very handy

*2026-07-08, version 1.16.1*

Pretty easy to install works very good just what I needed

### 5/5 — Raja

*2026-06-23, version 1.16.1*

Great product

### 5/5 — Energy Monitor

*2026-06-05, version 1.16.0*

Great little gadget!  Works well

### 5/5 — Easy and informative

*2026-03-18, version 1.15.3*

Installing the hardware, connecting the app, and configuring it took less than an hour and it’s telling me a lot about my home.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-03-12, version 1.15.3*

A big help for me not having to get up to turn the tv etc. off.

### 5/5 — Garage door opener

*2026-02-22, version 1.15.3*

Works great easy to install

### 5/5 — Great garage door opener

*2026-01-28, version 1.15.3*

Great to open the door when not in normal range of openers. Allows to see if door is open or closed and automatically closes when set.

### 5/5 — Great product. Great customer service

*2026-01-23, version 1.15.3*

I ordered four of these garage door controllers for my Apple Home set up.  Two of my garage door openers have standard wall switch buttons so installation was easy. The other two were LiftMaster with the yellow learn button so it’s a slightly different installation.
I contacted the company after discovering this and they immediately responded and sent me the accessories (wireless remotes) to make it work.
I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed by the level of service I received. This is a mid-skill level installation so you need to follow the instructions carefully.

### 5/5 — Using with Apple HomeKit.  Works very well.

*2026-01-06, version 1.15.3*

Using with Apple HomeKit.  Works very well.

### 5/5 — Facile

*2025-11-19, version 1.15.0*

Facile à installer et à utiliser
