Ratings and reviews

Update. Every time that I want to view the router, I click on it and then it says I'm not connected to the network. Update. Still not fixed. Why do they want you to pay a subscription when the features never work. Most features don't work all of the time. It's very hit or miss for the controls. Worked marginally OK before, now it's worse. It's very slow to start and sync to wifi. I'm not sure what app some of these other people are leaving reviews for but they have to be fake or paid.

There remain bugs, which I hoped would have been addressed long ago. When I open the app, the Extended Networks button shows nothing. When I tap the button and exit from that screen, it shows 2g and 5g. Also, many times it will say that there is no internet connection, until I tap on the Network Status button. Then it will say it's online and working well. Despite the erroneous readings, it functions well. Just wish they'd address these longstanding bugs.

Works, but slow and lots of clicks - 8 clicks just to add more time to my child's tablet. Also it first does a spinning thing to show it's updating to show you most accurate time restrictions and how much the child has used, etc. then it shows some info. Then five seconds later it switches and shows the ACTUAL correct info (like if I have the TV blocked). It's frustrating to look at the screen and not know if I'm looking at the correct info or not.
