Ratings and reviews

This app is a joke. Tried using it to finish setting up my mesh. When first trying to sign in via the router it kept saying it couldn't find it. Then I created an account and when I try to add an existing mesh, it doesn't even search for one. When I click the button, it pops up instantly saying something went wrong and to call them.

I regret buying Velop routers because of this app. it started out a little clunky, but over the years has evolved into something unusable. They kept adding more requirements for the password until there is just no way you will ever remember it, so you have to reset it every time you log in, and once you do log in, it will freeze when you try to change any settings.

Insists that my router does not have internet when it does. Notifications decide whether they want to be turned on or not. Does allow you to see the signal strength of devices on the network, but seldom in numeric format. At this point I'm keeping the app for a few days to make sure that the child nodes are staying connected, then I'll be uninstalling it and just using the browser interface from a desktop, which will constantly nag me to get the app that doesn't work.
