Very random
The multilingual leaflets that come with the controller, the HR91 and the boiler relay are poor. The app is slow to access as it loads data every time you open it. Resideo should do installation and set up videos to simplify the process.
Also if you have a wifi booster that too seems to fool communications. The evohome controller looses comms with different zones on a regular basis and rebinding more than 2 valves to 1 zone is impossible!

App problems
The app keeps making me rejoin. This is a new since two or three months.

Best Home heating control system on the market
Have been using over 10 years and it is the most reliable there is

More control required
At present you can only switch off the entire system. It would could if you had the option to turn off individual rooms. I have 2 bedroom zones which I only use when we have visitors. It is a real pain to reschedule each room every time I want to turn on the heating

Left to rot with no investment for years. Terrible app from decades ago.
The app has been left to rot by Honeywell or whoever. Strange for one of their flagship products - Evohome.
It’s just junk and recent reviews confirm this. It doesn’t work a lot of times.
So much wasted screen, you can see it on the first sample pic - why not compress it so more info shows on the screen? Font can stay the same so it’ll still be just as readable.
Still stuck at 12 zones.
It’s difficult to set the temp as it isn’t a simple click wheel, your thumb (or whichever digit) has to make an un-natural slide up and down the screen. Eh? What for????
No signal showing what the valves are doing - you can find it in a hidden menu on the main controller so the info is available but not on the app. Strange given the acres of wasted screen space available!
You can’t control a single rad for a short time period - i.e a quick action to turn on one zone on for 30 / 60 mins at a given temp. You can do it through the app the long-winded way.
You can’t turn on the whole house to bring it to a given temp i.e. set whole house to 20C until 8pm.
You can’t turn the system on for say an hour, then have it go back to sleep automatically - you have to remember to turn it off again manually.
Just rotting away with no investment to make use of the incredible system EvoHome is. Or could be.
They have really let the buyers of their flagship system down. So much they could do, but so little they’ve done.
28/10/25 Update
Nothing’s changed. Honeywell have done diddly squat to improve this dated pile of junk. Nada for over a year.
Evohome itself is brilliant however the app has been left to rot at the roadside with little sign of anything improving on the horizon.
25/11/25 Another update.
Nothing to update - nothing’s changed in the app for a year and then it wasn’t much. It’s just rotting.
Such a shame to let the system and its users down so badly.

Well another year has flown by and still nothing of note happening with this terrible app. Still junk. Still rotting away with no investment.
I’ve nothing much to add to the above. It’s perhaps more stable but still is very limited in control features. It’s like something from the turn of the century.
Strange considering how good the system itself was. It was way ahead of its time - but now has been overtaken by newer systems while it still rots at the roadside.
