Ratings and reviews

Cox Homelife is one of the worst app I have ever come across. I have a lot of the same issues that others have been experiencing as well. Most of the time, in order to set the alarm, I have to drive down the street & around the corner in order to access the app. If I am sitting in my driveway, I have been told by a rep, the app does not know if it should be on WiFi or not....really? Its a security app! One of the main reasons to have the app is for the cameras, but if my router has to be reset, which can happen randomly, I cannot access the cameras. I have to reset the router, which is in the office, not a good situation if it is in the middle of the night & I'm in bed. Strongly considering having Cox come get their equipment, especially the cameras. What good are they if you can't access them on the app????? I'm paying for something that is worthless.

Update: After still getting the no internet connection error, I read what was updated section and found out that the app only works with older phone models. In my instance, it's Samsung s9+, and the app works well on it. However, my Samsung s22+ does function, at least not anymore. My phone has internet and wifi. The app won't log in because it doesn't recognize the internet connection.

I just got the surveillance system installed on 10/24/18 and it's not working properly. Every time I try to live stream the app on my phone it shuts down and when I log back in again it does the same thing. It's not sending me my notifications that I programmed it to do. I can't even save the video footage without the app crashing. I'm so frustrated right now. What's the purpose of having surveillance if its does not work like it should. I thought it was just me going through this issue. I'm ready to cancel my service with COX. THIS APP NEED TO BE FIX ASAP
