Ratings and reviews

I've bumped up a star since latest update. HOWEVER STILL : 1) Like others I've found (and so has my partner on a different handset) that a lot of times "Apply Boost" does nothing but show the spin icon and eventually time out. To get it to work I usually have to "force quit" and relaunch the app. 2) While the app now records APP activity in the log (for every app user), it fails to record activity initiated from the thermostat! It would also be nice to export the log - perhaps as CSV data.

Been great for 2 years. Recently boost function is erratic. Some I set it but wont record. Sometimes says it is saved but nothing happens boiler dosnt start even waiting.Sometimes have to change timer In beginning Patrick at EPH got back to me right away with solution in place which has with some initial difficulty sorted a problem A vital piece of info It says gateway code shown on the side. Could not find it and used another number on box. Wouldn't work. The Gateway number is on the BACK.

works well enough, but there's a lag of a few minutes between changing anything on the app and having the system update which made me think for a long while that it didn't work. the eco monitor for temperature and usage is okay too, but the measurements could be more frequent. if the system could be made more responsive it would be 5 stars
