Ratings and reviews

Works great, except when it doesn't, and it's incredibly annoying when it doesn't work. You randomly get logged out and can't log back in for an unknown amount of time, which means you can't close your curtains or control anything that this might be tied to during that time. No warning or information as to why it's unusable or for how long it will stay so. Deducting a star because the frequency of these issues have increased since I wrote this review.

Startup time of the app is very long, and the UI/UX is archaic. Simple tasks require too many taps. There's no way to select the room overview as the default. Software updates for the TaHoma box block the usage of the app, until you agree to perform the update: terrible. Finally, the box should have an Open API, just like Philips Hue, so people are not locked into this app.

Using Somfy Classic version 3.18.5, the UI is so outdated and unintuitive. When I schedule a scenario to fire at a specific time of day, they appear in the dashboard of upcoming events but they do not fire at all at that time. The only scenarios that fire correctly are those relative to sundown. Actions programmed for specifc times or relative to sunrise do not work at all. Does anyone have suggestions?
