User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's concept and ease of automating various smart home devices with decent compatibility. However, there are recurring complaints about unreliable connectivity, especially with cameras and smart home integration, slow or faulty motion detection, app stability issues like crashes and freezes, and poor user interface features such as missing full-screen support and excessive permissions. These issues tend to impact usability and satisfaction significantly, though the ecosystem's device support is a strong point for many.
Pros
  • User-friendly interface suitable for older users
  • Good concept with the ability to automate lights, power points, floodlights, etc.
  • Supports multiple homes on the same app
  • Reliable connectivity for many smart devices within the ecosystem
  • Good integration with a variety of Grid Connect devices like smart lights, cameras, heaters
Cons
  • Frequent connectivity and reliability issues with devices and Google Home integration
  • Poor camera functionality: slow motion alerts, no fast-forwarding, low quality, and malfunctioning infrared features
  • App crashes, freezes, or white screens when accessing cameras
  • Lack of full-screen camera view on tablets and foldable devices after updates
  • Location permissions required unnecessarily and questionable privacy settings

Why is it the app will only connect to your device exactly every second time you close it and reopen it? Works fine on iPhone.
