Ratings and reviews

I truly don't know what the point of this app is. The WiFi connection and app was offered as a solution to the lack of a delay start on my Bosch dishwasher, but the app doesn't have that feature. On top of that, I can't manage to keep the app connected to the dishwasher. Bog standard WiFi, Google-made stock Android phone. Instead of a delay-start button, I have another app, a missing feature, a potential cyber security nightmare lurking on my home network, and a dissatisfied wife.

if you want a headache, be sure and use this app, I've attempted numerous attempts with customer service email, since they don't actually have a human, this has never worked. you have to jump through a lot of hoops and it's still not connected. I have a brand new internet provider and a brand new Bosch 500 series dishwasher and it's been nothing but frustrating. every other technology works if it's modern.

This app is a piece of garbage! I connect my dishwasher to it, it works for about 2 months, then it somehow loses its connection and I have to try to reconnect. The problem is that it doesn't always want to connect. I delete the cache, the data, try multiple times over multiple day or weeks until it finally connects...for another two months. Its been this way since the day I got it. Nothing has changed regarding my WiFi connection, so it must be this stupid app!
