### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2016-01-23*

This app has never worked even a single time after months of trying various things.

### 1/5 — Consistently Crashes

*2015-12-04*

Even though the functionality is limited--not a lot of bells and whistles--it's a good idea. It's what I would expect for free. However it crashed nearly every single time I tried to use it.  I even took another reviewer's advice...Skip it. There are others out there that the developer seems to actually care about. This sure ain't one of them.

### 1/5 — Crashes on startup

*2015-08-13*

Arduino a configured as documented and this app crashes every time!

### 1/5 — Crashes on start

*2014-07-18, version 1.0*

See above

### 1/5 — Crashes on startup

*2014-05-28*

App crashes continuously on startup.

### 1/5 — Crash on connect

*2014-03-28*

Just crashed when trying to connect. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2014-02-05, version 1.0*

The app just crashes, iOS7 - iPad 4 or iPhone 5

### 1/5 — Crashes on launch

*2014-01-06*

Does nothing, crashes on launch - iPad air, iOS 7.0.4. Looks like there are ads even in the preview screenshots

### 1/5 — App crashes when connecting

*2013-10-20*

Does nothing. Please fix. I have 5S on iOS 7

### 3/5 — Figured out crashing problems

*2014-03-01*

App only seems to work if you do the following:
a.) Use the default Yun name of “arduino” 
b.) Leave the REST API access Open rather than Password Protected

Also, once you finally get the app to come up, it sometimes won’t allow you to set digital pins High.  If this happens, re-upload the bridge sketch and try again.
