I connect with wifi and data also cant to sign up . Pop out with a network issue ### 3/5 — Still needs improvement *2022-03-14, version 2.4.4* Provide an option to set timer for next day.

Add an option to store config of Switch incase of power failure or restart event ### 2/5 — No me deja agregar dispositivo *2021-03-07, version 2.3.1* Al ingresar a la app e intentar agregar dispositivo solo me manda una al estar y de ahí a ajustes que autorice todos los permisos y ya estando autorizados todos sigue pasando lo mismo ### 1/5 — Weak App *2021-02-24, version 2.3.0* The app keeps on forgetting the names of the devices. ### 1/5 — Unausgereifter Murks *2021-01-27, version 2.2.8* Bleibt schon beim ersten Versuch, einen smarten Lichtschalter des Herstellers zu verbinden, kommentarlos hängen. Sowas braucht kein Mensch... ### 1/5 — Katastrophe *2020-12-18, version 2.2.7* Für das iPhone ist diese App eine absolute Katastrophe. Es scheitert bereits alles daran, dass die App selbst nicht mit dem bestehenden WLAN Netzwerk zu verbinden ist. Alle weiteren Funktionen, sind jedoch davon abhängig. ### 2/5 — Connection *2020-09-19, version 2.2.2* Is there something wrong with your app. It shows a connection error even though the connection is fine. ### 1/5 — Alexa is no longer supporting this app. *2020-06-06, version 2.1.7* Please.... ### 1/5 — Bad update *2020-05-19, version 2.1.6* Not working good ### 1/5 — Imposible recuperar contraseña *2020-02-21, version 2.1.2* El proceso de recuperación de contraseña no funciona ### 1/5 — Poor *2019-11-23, version 2.0.7* poor pplication , switches disconnected suddenly, Can’t connect the L8 model keep showing message WiFi not configured . ### 1/5 — Might be a waste of money *2019-10-15, version 2.0.2* Purchased a L6 and cannot get it to link up at all. Tried all sorts of combinations. I have lots of smart items from other brands without issue ### 1/5 — Don’t work!!! *2019-09-27, version 2.0.1* Bought a smart switch module from lanbon. Wired it all up and switches as should but the app doesn’t find or link up with the app! Terrible help finding ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Very poor *2024-12-31, version 2.5.34* Doesn’t provide even the most basic functions provided by other apps. The switches are useless with this app. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work properly with iPad *2024-10-26, version 2.5.32* Used an infrared repeater for my ac units that works for iPhone but sadly iPad doesn’t fit the screen and needs work ### 1/5 — Worst smart device app *2024-09-16, version 2.5.29* I had two devices (a switch and a thermostat) both were connected and working correctly, after a few weeks both had stopped connecting to the app. I’ve tried resetting the devices to factory setting, removing and reinstalling the app. But nothing has made it work. Completely useless dumb devices now. ### 1/5 — Rubbish app and products. *2024-05-05, version 2.5.25* Absolutely garbage. Bought two touchscreen light switches and they’ve literally worked a handful of times in the last two years. Don’t waste your time or money on this app or product. I’d give zero stars if I could. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2023-11-05, version 2.5.16* App lets you connect switch then after installation you return to app and Nothing no switch not even s option ran out patients ### 1/5 — Really totally lost of money *2023-06-12, version 2.5.8* I buy the switch but this app is a totally dumb not work ### 1/5 — Lastima *2023-01-27, version 2.5.8* Dejaron de funcionar por app y por programacion creo fue desde q se actualizo. Q hago? ### 1/5 — Alexa integration does not work properly *2022-11-27, version 2.5.7* Setting up the devices are easy enough. I have a L6 3 gang switch. When I add 2 of the 3 of the switches to an Alexa group and ask Alexa to switch the group on. It randomly switches those 2 on and off and ends up with only one of the switches on. Guess I will be going back to sonoff. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-07-13, version 2.5.3* App simply doesn’t work at all to set up a Lanbon L8. Looks like the only option is to flash other firmware such as openHASP. ### 1/5 — Nicht zu gebrauchen *2021-03-07, version 2.3.1* Schalter I8 lässt sich nicht verbinden. Die App ist somit nicht zu gebrauchen und die Funktionen des Schalters sind eingeschränkt. Sprache Deutsch ist nicht wirklich vorhanden. Nur wenn man lieblos ein paar deutsche Begriffe einstreut heißt das nicht, die App ist in deutscher Sprache erhältlich. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Parfait *2022-01-04, version 2.4.3* Très bonne application, manque seulement la possibilité de mise à jour des interrupteurs L8 😉 ### 5/5 — Excelente APP *2021-11-09, version 2.3.9* Es execelente, entro a mi casa y manejo absolutamente todo, luces, tomas, cámaras, ducha, Es realmente fabulosa y lo mejor es que recibe actualizaciones permanentemente ### 5/5 — How do I view the offline device? *2021-07-23, version 2.3.5* Is there any way we can see all offline devices in one tab ? ### 5/5 — Neutralleiter *2021-04-24, version 2.3.1* Wo muss ich den Neutralleiter anschließen??? ### 5/5 — Unable to pair L8 switch *2021-04-21, version 2.3.1* Need to create a network and add WiFi information but it instantly tells me it cannot connect to the WiFi. So I am unable to pair my L8 switches Update: I contacted the seller on AliExpress and we got it working together. I had tried it on a different device with same results but when I reinstalled the app on my primary iPhone it worked and I could pair the LCD 3 gang switch ### 5/5 — Fonctionne parfaitement *2021-04-04, version 2.3.1* Rien à redire l’application fonctionne sans planter ### 5/5 — Absolutely fantastic smart home system *2020-03-01, version 2.1.2* Purchased a lighting system for my full house from Ectrix smart home (UK agent) and works very well!!! ### 5/5 — We love our switches *2019-08-23, version 1.9.2* Love the design of the switches. The app isn’t the prettiest but we use Amazon Alexa so not too worried. ### 5/5 — Interface needs some work *2019-08-06, version 1.9.2* The app interface is nothing special, but the app works fine! We imported full control to Google Home app, so we mainly use that. There’s a bug here and there, easy software fix! ### 5/5 — Works perfectly in NZ *2019-04-16, version 1.9.0* Found the pairIng and control of the switches works very well if you have good WIFI coverage. I’ve imported control into Google Home but the native app works 99.9% of the time. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
