Ratings and reviews

It used to 'work'... at least I was able to set up my home link. However, I got a new Pixel 10 and tried to "join existing system". The screen that just states "Searching for MyLink devices" and it never, ever, goes away. I can see that it found my blinds because they pop up on the background and I can see the upper right corner indicator that the app is connected. However, the screen still never goes away. The cancel button does not work. So there is no way to persist the found existing system

Software update process is cumbersome when it works (I have to unplug/plug/unplug/plug in 5 second intervals? Really?). But most of the time the update doesn't work...just keeps asking me to do the above. And please, Somfy, don't tell me to contact customer support. This has been going on for years and has happened to enuf ppl based on reviews I've read that this is not some sort of one-off type thing. You just don't care and refuse to fix the issue. U're Alexa integration sux too, but I'm not rating that here. Otherwise it would be 1 star.

Ok updating review. Instructions are useless. After being frustrated I called support and support did walk me through configuring the software to connect to a roller shade. I figured I'd be able to program the rest rather quickly. However, the software would error and not find the network even though I was right next to my router and the somfy my link. Tried multiple times with 3g and 5g wifi networks and constant errors. Eventually got everything working using 3g. Shouldn't be that difficult.
