### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-03-31, version 4.5.4*

This app is the worse app I’ve ever used. Just bad. Absolutely no direction on how to set it up. My remotes back information has rubbed off so I have no information there. Just bad all over.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-03-31, version 4.5.4*

App won’t scan and register remote

### 1/5 — App is totally useless

*2026-02-07, version 4.5.4*

There is nothing in the app once you use Bluetooth to locate your device. No controls, no settings. Just an option to “change the name” of this device. Why?  What is the point?

### 2/5 — The app functions, but poor UX and lack of automations

*2026-01-03, version 4.5.4*

The app does serve to control my bed once configured, but there is quite a bit more functionality available with the existing hardware.  Improvements on alarms/schedules and integration with iOS shortcuts to allow Siri automations would set Sven&Son apart.

### 1/5 — Please redo this app

*2025-12-13, version 4.5.4*

I know you guys don’t care whatsoever. But Jesus this looks like an intern made it. Please add more memory buttons there’s tons of space for it.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t do anything!

*2025-11-13, version 4.5.4*

Total waste of download. This “App” doesn’t control anything. When you spend this much for a bed, and it advertises an “App” uou rightfully expect the App to work. Grossly disappointing!!! I would give it zero stars if I could.

### 5/5 — Works perfectly

*2025-10-17, version 4.5.4*

This app works great , despite what other reviews are saying. After downloading select the model number you have connected. Then scan the QR code from the users manual or else you will get a blank screen. After scan both of my QR code from each of the separate manuals for my split king if then added a picture to each one so they would not get confused. I saved the settings. Now the app works every time.

10/16/2025
This is a two year update. The app still works perfectly. I can’t believe people are rating this app so low when they didn’t follow instructions.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-09-30, version 4.5.4*

The app does not work. There is no way to connect to the bed.

### 3/5 — Don’t scan remote, use manual

*2025-05-26, version 4.5.4*

FYI - In order for the remote buttons to show up, you need to scan the code on the manual.  The instructions say you can scan the code on the physical remote as well, but this didn’t work for me.  If you can’t find your manual, they have the downloads available on the website.

TLDR; App works. Terrible instructions. Read the manual.

### 1/5 — No instructions on app

*2025-04-21, version 4.5.4*

This app is worthless. I downloaded it, pulled up my bed and can’t get it to do anything
