App stopped working and continually crashes on iOS 12.5.7

One of the last updates has made the app completely unusable on iPad iOS 12.5.7. Suggested workaround (in a similar review) is not feasible as I can’t even open the app to access Settings.

Please employ/contract some decent developers

You’ve changed the app to enforce SSL - which finally does appear to work now. However, you have decided not allow users to save the password. You’ve used your usual lazy approach to app design. Saving passwords in Apple keychain is considered secure by most apps.

After 10+ years of using cbus; since a few months back you finally get the mobile app into a usable (though far from intuitive and slick) state. Now you’ve gone back a step by preventing the system password from being saved.

You’ve might of improved security but I will now not use the Wiser 2 app. I’m not entering (secure - i.e. long and complex) passwords every time I want to switch a light on. Was that your intent, so people stop using the app and you don’t have to bother ‘developing’ it.

App always reports the wrong time on cbus, but clicking on it sets it to phone time. It’s unclear whether the app is wrong or it’s the repeating problem of cbus Wiser unit or PAC losing the time. I’ve spent way too much time trying to follow up and resolve Clipsal problems.

Many Great Suggestions and Many Problems

After reading through many of the past reviews there are some great ideas for improvements to the Wiser. There are also many problems which arise with this system.
I have also experienced some of these mostly connection issues with my system and I am regularly contacting my technician for troubleshooting assistance.
It’s very disappointing that even after 3 or 4 years of reviews it seems that Clipsal is happy to ignore all these issues and suggestions as the same problems keep happening and none of the great suggestions appear to have been implemented.
Sorry Clipsal, we are now in 2024 and your Wiser feels like it belongs back in the 1980’s.
