Ratings and reviews

Abysmal performance - the app regularly fails to get past the loading screen. It's also constantly down for maintenance at the exact times it would be useful (e.g. when you're in bed and don't want to go to the living room to change the AC temp). I've stopped relying on it at all.

Garbage app and products. The cellular connection on the hub is terrible. App has option to connect to Wi-Fi but doesn't find the network. No option for manual ssid entry. Air conditioning stays on despite temperature being below target temperature on app. Wasting my electricity and making home freezing. Door locks take forever to unlock and lock.

Terrible. For the benefit of--being able to let in a dogwalker while you're at work?--every time you enter your home can be slightly less convenient, with the added benefit of the need to worry about batteries and connectivity to make sure you can get into your home. From a purely technical standpoint, the app routinely fails to change locked/unlocked status (while the door does indeed lock), meaning that the app needs to be toggled back and forth to simply unlock a door. And at least in my building, the bluetooth/RFID entry simply does not work. You may as well start memorizing however many codes you need to get into your building, unit, public areas, etc. This is useful only to property managers while making life more difficult for residents with no discernable benefits to security or convenience. The most frustrating part is that if you are reading this, you almost certainly have no choice but to use it.
