Working much better now

I was not a fan of this app when it first came out I don’t know if there was any updates that were done to it. We just started running our air-conditioning unit for the summer and the app has worked flawlessly this time. Thank you very much.

Easy to use

Super easy to use and dial temperature from your phone.

Easy & Worth the the investment

Love being able to use my phone to adjust AC and heat. Turn off unit summer and winter when traveling. Turn on an hour or so before returning.

Unit is easy to program.

Update mechanism

Four stars because the app often doesn’t update information for some time, or requires a restart to get fresh information, otherwise it works for standard control of the thermostat and does provide a lot of remote configuration options, which I appreciate.
