Ratings and reviews

This app does exactly what I was looking for. I had a previous way of getting buttons/ widgets on my phone but it stopped working. I was afraid I would not be able to get another similar app/service since different smart home devices and manufacturers don't work well together. This app delivers where everything else lacks. With the Simple Commands service I am able to get automation done that even Alexa can't do on its own. I highly recommend this app. Pay for it you won't regret it!!!!

Makes what should be easy actually possible. Now I've got a tablet with a full page plus of the most common Alexa tasks to click on. I especially like that you can chain 2 or more routines together in a single button. That makes life a lot easier. Gripes, and I did find things to moan about, but nothing major. 1. It can be casual in its performance. Nothing horrible, but it is noticable at times. On the other hand, it makes things happen at a human speed. All in all this is solid.

It's a great app but it needs some form of way to visually show that you pressed the widget button. if I'm away from my house and I want to use this to lock my door, I'm not sure if it happened because when you tap on the icon, it doesn't do anything visibly. But if you make a widget that has an on/off function, it shows a little dot that's green when it's for on, and red when it's for off. we need something similar for single action buttons
