Ratings and reviews

It works once you get the hang of it, but it's not easy to figure out. Also, for the countdown timer you have to figure the time in seconds, which is strange and time-consuming. I noticed this year that the app did not adjust when we left daylight savings time. When using the program feature I have to adjust it by an hour. That's pretty annoying.

Difficult to connect to router because most routers are 2.4/5GHz and it only will connect to 2.4GHz. Takes patience. App is a bit buggy but again it takes patience. After getting connected and programed the way I want it does what it is supposed to do. Pretty convenient to be able to check on things from anywhere I have WiFi

I downloaded the app and put in my email address. It asked for a verification code. It's been several hours and still haven't received the verification code. I have tried several time to resend the code with no luck. I have received other email, so it's not on my end. Very disappointed!
