can’t see room temp

The app is OK. Pretty basic. I’m having trouble seeing the room temp for each of my units. Everything was working fine. Then one day room temp is zero. Also it looks like the app shows my units as being turned on when I turned it off. I’ve deleted the app and reloaded it, and it doesn’t seem to do anything. No tech-support for this on the website. I need to do more digging or reach out to someone to email me back. This is annoying. The units themselves are awesome. I really like them. It’s just the app that I’m having problems with.

It was great for the first 2 years

It makes me sad to write this because I really did love this unit when I got it. I’m in my 3rd summer now and unit is inconsistent, the thermostat no longer works so I have to keep it on the lowest setting to work. The remote option does work on the app (kind of) but it doesn’t not show the accurate temp of the unit or the room. It was fun while it lasted. I had hoped to get more mileage on it.

Buyer beware

Unit is great until it breaks 2 years into it! Customer service does nothing. Save your money and still to the tried and true models!!

Eh.

Nice to have an app to control since it’s always at my finger tips. But PLEASE move the POWER button away from the temp setting keys? I try to lower the temp and turn off the unit. Also, make it so NIGHT MODE can be turned on and STAY on? I shouldn’t have to set it every time I turn on the unit.

It still hot

It not getting cold

Broken out of box

Installed brand new unit, never worked or turned on

Thermostat issue

App is no longer displaying accurate temperature in the room. It is stuck at 71 regardless of what the real temp is. Unable to tell if app is controlling AC unit.

Terrible service

Bought two air purifier units. Took an hour for the first one to even turn on. The second doesn’t work. Their customer service is terrible. I am an hour 45 minutes into troubleshooting with their bots

Breeze to use

Connected all 3 my devices in a snap. So easy to setup and use! Great app with great features!

If yours starts beeping

There is a fix that the company has and they won’t release it. They told me this and because I’m out of my 1 year manufacturers warranty they won’t allow it to be fixed. This is a pure software issue with unresponsive buttons and the settings going erratically. So my air conditioner works but because of their software I have 2 giant bricks.

No support for VoiceOver for Blind users (???)

This really sucks, Blind and other print-disabled users who use VoiceOver for access. It’s a perfectly nice fan, but this is an app review, and how lousy is it that we can give a company our money and they can’t bother to include basic accessibility support. I wasn’t even able to submit my email address to open an account which seems to be necessary to use the app, so I don’t know how the access would be after that, but even if that’s their plan - that we have to find a sighted person to even sign up?? Like I said, nice fan but I didn’t get a disccount for not being able to use the smart features.

Dumb “Smart” Device

Cant disable network broadcasting pairing signal unless you connect the AC to your home WIFI and phone…even if you dont want to use the app it will permanently broadcast for pairing. Spoke with customer service, there’s no way to turn it off. Totally dumb smart device.

Caved in and finally connected it to my phone and router but challenges persist. Frustrating app experience, very buggy and privacy invasive. Would return the unit if didnt already go thru the hastle of installing into window.

The AC unit itself works just alright otherwise, decent for a 12x12 room.

Windmill 6000 btu

Solid unit. Quick install and great cooling performance. 5 star product

Window Air Conditioner

Too loud

Good AC, bad app

The AC itself is nice but the app is terrible. Super unreliable and jank. Often just stops connecting to the AC making me need to set it up again from scratch. And now in some recent update metric units don’t work anymore, forcing me to use Fahrenheit

AC not cooling and working very loud

I purchased the Windmill 6,000 BTU 115-Volts Quiet AC 2 weeks ago and it has been nothing but a headache. It is not cooling properly and working loudly. There is no physical guide on the different modes and settings- which is very frustrating.

Reconfiguring

Keeps disconnecting

Change from F to C

I am struggling to switch back from F to C. For more context I did set up my ac nicely in C and then randomly in the middle of the night it changed back from C to F. I have changed it back in the app and I can see that I have selected “metric” however on the main menu it still uses F. This is annoying

New ac

It's good so far takes a while to get cool for a 15x10 room I got a 6k btu but I need 10k and up. Not sufficient enough to keep room cold.. wish I bought something else with more btu and less noisy

Defective Ac

Rattles and is really loud am waiting to hear back from support
