Amazon reviews are spot on, really bad. ### 1/5 — App *2023-10-20, version 1.3.8* Fix the app this app al time crush down and low the temperature for its self and then I have to fix the temperature buy hand ### 1/5 — no. do not do it. *2022-12-23, version 1.3.1* this is absolute garbage. the app and the thermostat are garbage!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Don’t buy .. *2022-12-12, version 1.3.0* Don’t buy… there going out of bussiness ### 1/5 — Unreliable *2022-11-19, version 1.2.1* Back again to download just stops opening. So many times I have lost count now. Come on. My daughter just bought the same thermostat and I am telling her to send it back!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. *2022-11-01, version 1.2.1* The app crashes no matter what you do, which makes your thermostat unusable especially if you lock it. You have to delete the app every single time! Just horrible. ### 1/5 — App crashes *2022-08-25, version 1.1.2* The app keeps crashing. I had to uninstall and reinstall to get it to work and now is crashing again. ### 1/5 — Extremely buggy and unusable *2022-08-22, version 1.1.2* This app is unstable. A week after install it crashes on startup consistently. The only way to restore functionality is to remove and then reinstall the app where it will only work for a week. And you will have to repeat the process. I cannot recommend this. ### 1/5 — Can’t even register app *2022-06-11, version 1.1.1* Can’t even register app ### 1/5 — Crashes and buggy *2022-05-28, version 1.0.0* This app constantly crashes and has a lot of bugs. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2025-12-25, version 1.5.3* Worked for over a year now the thermostat will not connect to the app. ### 1/5 — Easy Setup but MAJOR ISSUE *2025-11-16, version 1.5.3* Setup was easy but every time I saved the device it will never pull up on the app and iv followed the instructions perfectly. I have to manually do it and its annoying ### 1/5 — Gonna have to rename my WiFi *2025-11-02, version 1.5.3* The app does not accept underscores in the WiFi SSID so if you have a WiFi network which has an underscore in the name, guess you'll be reconfiguring your whole network just to use this device. **update** don't even bother with this app. You can use the device directly with the Tuya Smart Life app and it works much better!! ### 1/5 — Won’t connect *2025-08-11, version 1.5.3* In the past I could connect my thermostat to the app but it would often disconnect. Now, it won’t connect at all telling me I have the wrong wifi password which I know I don’t. Pretty worthless if the app doesn’t connect to the thermostat. ### 1/5 — don’t get taken do not buy these *2025-01-17, version 1.5.3* Just like most of the other reviews state, this is a piece of junk. Not stable, can’t keep accurate temp. Worthless at a high price. ### 1/5 — DON’T GET THIS APP!! *2024-12-29, version 1.5.3* UPDATE for what it’s worth: this app has been plagued with issues. The developers can’t or won’t test the app before releasing an update. I have since removed the thermostat and all due to the worthless app. You cannot rely on this app. I’m glad to be rid of it. This is, without a doubt, the most useless app ever. Apparently, the developers are morons with no pride in their work. The app has stopped doing what it is supposed to do. Who is on the app development team, a bunch of toddlers? ### 1/5 — TRASH *2024-12-17, version 1.5.3* Don’t work waste of time only a few models are on here ### 1/5 — DON’T GET THIS APP!! *2024-10-27* This is, without a doubt, the most useless app ever. Apparently, the developers are morons with no pride in their work. The app has stopped doing what it is supposed to do. Who is on the app development team, a bunch of toddlers? ### 1/5 — App *2024-06-28, version 1.4.0* Please fix this app. ITS NOT WORKING. ### 1/5 — Won’t connect to my TJ550 *2024-03-05, version 1.3.9* I’ve been trying to connect my device to WiFi and it won’t do it. I have good AT&T internet service. I tried everything even reinstalling the app, still don’t work. Switching thermostat to a different brand. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works great! *2026-08-10, version 1.5.4* Not sure why reviews are so bad but app works great and vine thermostat works great. Easy setup, straightforward simple app with some extra scheduling functionality. Vine support was also fantastic, sent them a picture of my setup and they promptly replied with options on how to get it setup. ### 5/5 — Money Saver *2026-07-10, version 1.5.3* Wasn’t the easiest install but it has been amazing being able to turn on and off the AC from my phone, create a schedule that I like and have the peace of mind that it isn’t running up the bill. ### 5/5 — Cheap thermostat *2023-11-18, version 1.3.8* Wifi thermostats won’t work the app keeps crashing I needed (4) wifi thermostats I bought (4) of these I should have known better. When something seems too good to be true it usually is. If they fix the app this product would be 4 stars. ### 5/5 — I don’t understand all the negative *2022-10-24, version 1.2.1* For me the app has worked flawlessly. Except for “history” which never displays, everything else is great. No crashes and i check it all the time to see what the room temp is or adjust it. Setting a schedule in the app is a snap too. ### 2/5 — Meh *2024-11-24, version 1.5.3* Some translation issues, misspellings and such. Needs additional refinement. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
