Ratings and reviews

Product outlook is good, but app is full of bugs. Can't do the setup properly. Error messages are not useful. OTP feature doesn't work. Asks for Wi-Fi password, which I don't understand why and this was a turn off for me. Also asks to connect to 2.5 GHz wifi, which again doesn't make any sense. Couldn't proceed with the setup anymore.

UPDATE: Google Assistant no longer supported. Imagine buying a new device to connect to you Google Home, and it stopped working with no warranties. There are too few options to even make it usefull. For Samsung AC remote, just on/off and temperature! What about so many other button on a remote. If they can map 1 button, they can map 10 more. Not a rocket science.

Terrible Product when it disconnects. You will have such a tough time reconnecting as there is no reset switch and now the app itself does not work after I log out. I think they have started tracking accounts logging and forcefully disconnecting devices so they have to contact support.
