About this app

The AmpliFi app simplifies the process of connecting and managing all of your Amplifi Wi-Fi devices: Alien, HD, Gamer’s Edition, Instant, and Meshpoint products.

The AmpliFi app offers the simplest way to add, monitor, configure, and upgrade your network. You’ll be able to:

View key diagnostic information, like a connected devices summary, upload/download activity, your IP address, and real-time network speed data.
Create an in-home guest network for visiting family and friends. Control your family’s screen time with the ability to pause connected devices.

Retain privacy and peace of mind when browsing on public networks by using a built-in VPN feature. Compared to traditional VPNs AmpliFi relies on your router and network for increased privacy.

Ratings and reviews

The AmpliFi hardware is great for residential use, but from an administrative perspective, it's a lacking solution. For example, the app doesn't]6 have an option to disconnect a device. That's about as basic of a feature as you can ask for. But the app does have a pause feature to pause a single device's connection... 🤦‍♂️. Not even close to being the same thing.

On android this app is just for show, setting up things and making it simple an insecure. For Apple, they have put effort into it. Most settings are not available on Android, but fully available on Apple. Fortunately I have both eco systems, if not I would be seriously aggravated. Go for the UniFi line instead, or stay away from the Alien one, cool product, poorly implemented and extremely limited (you cannot buy stand alone mesh points, they are hardwired to each router!).

Worked initially, but the app allows you to change a config setting where you THINK you're power-saving your WiFi (e.g. nighttime setting). What you appear to be able to do is leave the WiFi in a seemingly unrestorable state. No hardware reset on the router itself, so the app becomes helpless at allowing you to reconnect your WiFi. Going around in loops trying to reset is getting me nowhere. UPDATE: Was eventually able to restore WiFi, but it was extremely fiddly. Needs in app troubleshooting.
