Ratings and reviews

The app works fine after working out a few details. I initially had some issues that were unique to my setup (no problem with the app) that were compounded by a few typos in the docs (e.g. overrides). The docs need another round of proof reading and scrubbing and app interface could use some minor usability improvements. For example, there are (i) buttons that don't popup info balloons.

Decent replacement for the Ascend app. Also handles General and Pool WiFi timers (I don't have those). Slightly fresher GUI than Ascend. However, it seems extremely slow at populating devices via the cloud and sometimes on refresh just doesn't list devices. Often while on WiFi it lists the devices quickly, but still sits and spins for several seconds before you can interact with the switch. One pro is that devices added via Ascend also show up on your account in Connect.

Terrible app, slow and you need to refresh your devices every time you leave the app or even if your screensaver comes on. I had to press the 'ON' button two or three times before the app would respond and turn on the device. Worst part though was it kept turning on my device Sunday mornings despite clearing the schedule completely. Tried factory reset of the timer, still was coming on outside of the set schedule. Save your hair and go elsewhere for Wifi timer.
