Ratings and reviews

the app is tricky to set up for my Dehumidifier, and worst of all, the text is so small, even on my larger screen phone, that i cannot read the humidity percent text, even after tapping on the device to open it. the animated picture of the dehumidifier takes up very little space, and i feel like they could have moved the icon to the left with the power button icon, then put the text info about it to the right in larger font. otherwise all the control buttons are there, same as on the device.

This app was easy to install. And it does work. Although, when I changed the humidiy level - it didn't change on the Midea Dehumidifier. In reading the Midea manual - you can only set the Humidity level manually when the "set" light is on. I had the "Comfort" light on!? The app should tell the user you can't set the humidity level manually unless you select the "set" option.

IT DOES NOT WORK!!! It never connects properly and every time I make a change on the app it doesn't work or it's super delayed. Like over a minute delayed. This is when I'm standing next to it. Old app worked perfect. This one is horrid. Please fix this because your essentially ruining our ac units or at the least make it so we can revert to the old app! I've done a bunch of steps to try to fix it already but it's 100% the way this app was designed.
