Ratings and reviews

The app is great. You do have to create an account. The animation for gear selection is great. Needs better instructions on how to fine tune the RD and FD. It is not clear that the app will shift the gears for you etc... It is not clear that there isn't a low adjustment for the 8050 FD. I did not have an issue like some have had.

Buggy SW, confusing UI. Connected with new app to reprogram synchro shift. Got hung after initial connect. As others wrote, bricked it. App couldn't connect, no response from bar end button. System in limbo, thinks its connected, and never times out or recovers. To recover, I removed the EW-WU111 and connected the PC-link SM-PCE1 with my laptop. I was able connect and reactivate the Di2. I put the EW-WU111 back in and reprogrammed the connect password. Afterwards, it all worked. There may be other ways to recover such as disconnecting the battery, but not sure. The App is still confusing. The fact that unless you disconnect from the phone the system remains in limbo and nothing works forever is unconscionable.

So... I didn't follow the instructions. I connected through my Bluetooth app first, and could not get the bike to respond. Well duh, you have to go through the app itself. I also used the Windows program and its pretty slick. Got everything updated through that before I figured out I need to use the phone app to connect to Bluetooth. And I'm an IT professional 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️
