Adverts stop it working
I used to really like the products and app. Now it just opens to a Google Gemini advert and gets stuck. Can’t use any plugs, so replacing them now. I have emailed them about this over a month ago and they never got back to me.
Worked great until…
Suddenly I get zero notification about motion or sound. I have them enabled on the iPhone but in the Teckin app the settings have disappeared
The ad’s!
The wait to connect due to ad’s frustrating
False Claims
Instantly gets a 1 star for advertisements, specifically stating I’ve been hacked due to porn sites and wants me to sign up for a service. Shady company this is….
The update makes it even worse to use.
Since the update this app is even worse to use. You get an advert for something you’re not interested in on startup. When I try to change the time settings it crashes (this is with Teckin sockets). I’m looking for something that works.
Unreliable
Teckin app is completely unreliable. My light timers have been skipped multiple times, making the automation useless because you simply cannot trust it to work properly.
There is also an obvious bug where switching a device directly from the main app screen freezes the entire app, forcing a full restart every time. Basic functionality like this should not be broken in a finished product.
Very poor software quality and unreliable devices overall.

Ads
Not only do you buy the plug, but then you have to sit through an advertisement on the app each time accessing the app to turn on or off my light. So if there’s an emergency -like someone having a seizure- you have to get up and fumble for a switch or sit and wait for the ad to pass on the app.
Everything is terrible
The fact that this app tries to hock ads is a testament to how awful the products themselves are. Maybe if you made better stuff you wouldn’t have to subsidize with ads.
Ads before turning on the lights.
I don’t know how I ended up with this knockoff BS, but I use them for holiday decorations. Dumb app freezes, the I have to restart and watch an ad before I can turn off my Christmas tree. Would give zero stars.
Setup Failure
Attempting to set up a set of smart plugs, but the app refuses to recognize the phone is, in fact, attached to a WiFi network. I've been battling this for about as long as I intend to; returning the hardware and dumping the app.
Horrible
I can’t use the app, complete waste of my time. Some people call it functionable it is complete garbage and a failure to its name. Disappointing failure.
Camera
What’s going on with the app , why I can’t open it. Only on my phone not on my tablet like always.
DON'T touch it
They have inserted useless ads that hang up the freakin' app everything you fire it up rendering the whole thing utterly USELESS.
Shame on you TECKIN!!
Never buying your products again

Never buying your products again
Why
Doesn't support 5g
Dumping this App!!
Terrible, do not get or use! Totally corrupt with spyware.
Useless
Cant get past the first advertisement to even use the app.
Cameras
Used to work great on my iphone but now won’t even log me in absolutely useless app and i have two cameras I can’t use.
Ads
Running ads on an app for a product I’ve already purchased is ridiculous!
Full of ads
So many ads
Terribly slow!
This is by far the worst app I use. Very slow to load, and then there’s a large ad covering my devices. I have to carefully click on ‘Go to app’ in tiny letters, which is tricky with my aging eyes. So annoying that I am considering getting a different brand of smart plugs just to avoid having to use this app.
