Ratings and reviews

Garbage app and detectors that constantly lose contact with the cloud. Re-setting the detectors is all but impossible, so now I have two expensive useless pieces of plastic. A third shows a weak WiFi connection even though I have whole-house WiFi with an extender on the other side of my house. If Kidde Support does not help me get these two detectors back online I'll be trashing all the others and looking elsewhere for more reliable and infinitely less-frustrating freeze and leak detectors.

Data input sucks. Trying to add a device took several times and required reset to connect. Fields were blocked by the keyboard and there was no scrolling. Tried to get keyboard to disappear but that only worked with the back arrow, which then deleted the data I had entered. I still can't add another member, I repeatedly press next, but the cursor stays at the email field, even though the email is entered correctly. Great concept, execution is poor. Looks like this is an expensive dumb detector.

Good device, relatively ugly app. If I could change just one thing, it would be to always show both my smoke detectors instead of showing 1 and having to click show-more in order to see the 2nd one (super lame). My second request would be to allow dark-mode like all other modern apps. That would be way less ugly. 3rd, I should be able to customize notifications and tvoc level that triggers them. EDIT: No I only have one house, with 2 smoke detectors. Both under one house, but just one shown.
