Serta Heated Product Remote User Reviews

Awful App

This app will malfunction constantly and eventually will tell you it’s the wrong password and even though the included directions say to re-install the app , it won’t re-set. Serta filed bankruptcy in 2020 so there isn’t any technical support other than basic instructions that come with the product and obviously the developer won’t be fixing the app. So don’t waste your time trying to get help like I did. I’ve had the product for 2 years now and even the controls aren’t working as they should now. Disappointing as I usually have get many years of service from Serta. Guess it’s like everything else. Companies are producing inferior products so they stay in business but don’t mind bankrupting the consumer along the way.

Awful

Terrible app. You have to go through too many redundant screens. Once you finally connect and set your preferences it will lock up and you will have to start all over again. Please make a better app. This one is ridiculous.

Horrible app

All the steps it takes to turn on mattress pad is ridiculous by the time one completes the steps, they could have run up and down the stairs(if that’s where the bed is located) at least 5 times. Odd to require a passcode to turn your bed on….Not to mention it doesn’t work all the time. You’re better off manually turning it on then waste your time with app.

Stopped working

It worked the first time I set it up but when I went to change the heat it kept asking for a passcode and it didn’t recognize the right passcode

Worst buy ever

I bought this United’s than a year ago and I’ve had nothing but issues out of it. Everything is plugged in correctly with the correct power source and all I get is E1 on the control board. Junk I tell you. The app isn’t any better with having to select the same controller over and over to be able to turn it on. Of course I want to turn my side on, but why have to sign into 2 remotes on the same bed! Get your crap together Serta. I need answers as to why my heated mattress pad isn’t working!

Useless

I was able to connect once to the controller. Now it sees it in the list of devices, but won’t connect to it anymore. Very frustrating interface that makes no sense to use. Deleting app and returning mattress pad.

Crap

Connects fine the first time then next time you want to use it said invalid passcode then hangs up
Worthless!

Stopped working

This app worked great one time. It’s now stuck in an endless loop of entering the passcode, which it no longer recognizes, changing the passcode, which doesn’t work, or changing the name of the device. It just flat out quit working. I even deleted it and reinstalled. It still won’t work. Menu options are badly designed. and no customer service. Just bad. Good intentions but very poorly executed. Don’t even bother. So disappointing as this was a gift. Customers have been complaining for more than a year and NOTHING has been fixed. Shame on Serta.

But the sheep is cute. So, one star for the sheep.

Keeps crashing

I got this product for the Bluetooth and the app keeps crashing. I rename my blanket and enter the passcode and the the next time I go into the app when I try to enter the passcode it closes the app out and I have to try again.

Bluetooth

I have connected everything, and I saw the controls through Bluetooth as I didn’t need it then so shut it off. Now close to bedtime and I tried to use this app. It connects etc but it dead stops after you connect. No heat controls or anything showing now.

Another day, still trying to get bluetooth going. Today it doesn’t go any farther than entering name, which app tells me ( no matter what name etc) that it is already used. I knew what I picked out but tried tons of names some of which I can’t Imagine any one else using and that’s all the further she goes. Need response please.

Speaking to the wind

Good idea but terrible execution. Surprised at a company like Serta letting this go on. Way too complicated. Seems like app was put together by a high school class. Too cumbersome, poorly designed & very sporadic operation (if at all). But based on the dates of the reviews and current functions of the app, no one at Serta is reading them anyway. Just speaking to the wind.

Works with iPhone my ***

Set it up once and it works great. Exit the program and the next time you want to use it it will not work again. It will always tell you the passcode is incorrect.

Then you must reset each controller and reinstall the program and perform setup again. Each time you exit the program you must do it all over again.

Serta-ly not a good product

App froze and not connecting

Horrible! This app worked well once when I first bought my blanket. Now the app froze when connecting to my remote.

Fix this App Serta it is garbage

Too many steps for something that should be straight forward and simple. I did discover that my mesh network “Orbie” Backhaul frequency was interfering with the Bluetooth connection to the Serta. Once I changed the Backhaul frequency on the Orbie I was able to control the pad from a distance. If you have a mesh WI-FI network at home try changing the Backhaul frequency if you are having connection issues with you Serta product.

A sleep at the wheel

Clearly either or both the developer or Serta pays absolutely ZERO attention to the negative feedback because they’ve done nothing to correct these critical issues. This app is the worst. I’m taking this blanket back but not because the of the blanket, because I was conned into buying it thinking the app was not a piece of crap that it absolutely is.

HEY MORONS AT SERTA,,, READ YOUR FEEDBACK

Horrible product. Was stated you can set while driving home. NOPE

The app for your phone is horrible too. Only got one side to connect (we have a California king). And we have to keep connecting every time we try to use it. Much quicker to just hit the button. Since it is not WiFi but blue tooth, you have to be within feet of it to work. What’s the point. Now that I’m in the bedroom. Two more steps and I can physically hot the button on the wired controllers. What a waste!!!

App just crashes

Seriously, I’m going to have to return this item because of the software. I’ve never seen a program this bad.

Crap

I don’t ever write reviews but this is just horrible. I bought this for my wife for Christmas and the app is just a nightmare. Took a number of times to set up and works when it wants.

Garbage

Total disappointment. If you try to put this app on two devices which would only make sense for a couple it will lock up and become completely unusable for either device. Closing and restarting the app won’t even fix it. You have to delete and start over. It works “ok” on just one device. It’s close to false advertising in my opinion.

Simplify!!!

Please please simplify this app. The idea is great and it functions fine. But why oh why do we need codes and multiple screens for something as simple as controlling an electric blanket? If you have to have codes for some bizarre reason then give the option to save them. The app should show and automatically connect to available controllers. And then have a single screen to allow turning on and off and setting the temperature. That’s it. Thanks.
