Potrai autorizzare i tuoi accessi da PC semplicemente: - inquadrando dalla App il QR code che trovi nella pagina di richiesta accesso e inserendo il codice app CieID che avrai creato in fase di certificazione del dispositivo; se hai attiva la biometria, l’accesso è ancora più semplice perché puoi sostituirla al codice app CieID oppure - inserendo le tue credenziali CieID (username e password) nella pagina di richiesta accesso, riceverai una notifica push in App che dovrai accettare tramite l’utilizzo del codice app CieID o della biometria. Se accedi al servizio online da smartphone, autenticati con le credenziali CieID oppure apri la App e inserisci il codice app CieID, usa il riconoscimento biometrico se attivo. Se hai un iPhone dotato di tecnologia NFC puoi scegliere di accedere con il massimo livello di sicurezza (livello 3).

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CieID holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CieID has 254 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of 1Control Solo (1ª Gen)'s written reviews are positive against 9% of CieID's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

1Control Solo (1ª Gen) ships an update every 5 weeks, CieID monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
