Ratings and reviews

Pretty basic app, not much to manage with it. One would expect to be able to set a timer for a device(at least) but nooo, it's too complicated it seems. In comparison, alexa app is far superior in every aspect in terms of what you can customize for a plug, light and pretty much any compatible device. most annoying thing, it refuses to conne t to the camera wben you need it, so forget about talking to whoe er is at the door(70% of the time fail)

The 7/24 video view (video camera icon) does not work since the app upgrade with new look and feel. Just keep spinning until it times out. This only happens on Android devices. It works on Apple. Please fix ASAP!!!! 06/23/2024 update - Did some further troubleshooting. Looks like this is only a problem if the android device is connected to 5ghz wifi network or on a 5G or LTE mobile network. The 7/24 video view works on 2.4ghz wifi network and 5G+ mobile network. PLEASE FIX ASAP!!!

Updated review: I gave this app a negative review previously but a couple of months ago, an update fixed a lot of bugs. It is now working properly and reliably 95% of the time. It still hangs once in a while but for the most part, it's a terrific app with some really good functions. The only thing that would make it perfect would be the addition of a panic button. There is one on the keypad so the app should have one as well.
