About this app

Control your home's window coverings from the convenience of your Android phone or tablet. The PowerView® App provides intelligent operation of popular Hunter Douglas window coverings. Adjust your window coverings to manage incoming light and energy usage throughout your home with the tap of a button or through automated operation. The PowerView® App merges seamlessly with your connected lifestyle, providing a level of convenience and ease that is the crowning touch for your Hunter Douglas window coverings.

Features:
• Control Hunter Douglas motorised window coverings, individually or in groups, throughout your entire home.

• Quickly and easily navigate the app using built-in tabs: Dashboard, Rooms, Scenes, and Schedules.

• Add favourite Scenes, Blinds, and Automations to your Dashboard, so they appear first whenever you open the app.

• Put your Scenes in motion using Schedules. Easily program your Scenes to activate automatically at different times of day to deliver the look and comfort you want, without you having to press a button. Configure Schedules to occur at a specific time, or based on unique Sunrise and Sunset times in your specific location.

Ratings and reviews

I wish there was a way to improve the reliability of the connection, and general reliability of my shades. 2 years in, and the shades often do not respond, even with the extra repeater hub, and the troubleshooting steps in the app are limited. This is the category of things that should "just work", but I regret going with this brand of automated shades. When they work, they are super cool. They just need to work.

Actually pretty comprehensive and hasn't had an issue in the 24hrs I've been playing with it. You can configure scenes, schedules, the remote buttons, and even the hub's LED brightness in the app. Super easy to transfer ownership. The app even has an LED color chart to interpret the Hub's status. Definitely better than I expected given the low rating on here, so that was a pleasant surprise. I'll update this if it disappoints in the future, but so far would recommend.

Edit - resolved! The installer did not transfer ownership to me and I was locked out. Things look great, reasonably easy to navigate, makes scenes/schedules, etc. Updated rating accordingly Cannot pair Gen 3 gateway to app via Bluetooth - app is, therefore, completely useless There is nothing in the info that shows how to pair the Gateway to the app and I have found nothing online
