Review summary

User feedback on CellGate centers on remote gate opening as a real benefit, but widespread reliability and UX problems dominate. Many reviews report the app freezing, failing to stay in the background, constant login/auth issues, and requiring reinstallations. Android Auto support is missing, and permission prompts are intrusive. Some users do have positive experiences with easy setup and remote access, but overall the app is seen as unstable and difficult to use.
Pros
  • Remote gate opening works when the app is functioning
  • When it works, the app is easy to use
  • Some users report reliable operation and positive setup/support experiences
Cons
  • Unreliable and unstable: frequent freezes, crashes, and need to reinstall
  • Background running issues: app does not stay in the notification area and is often killed by the system
  • Login/authentication problems and frequent sign-in issues (e.g., 401 errors)
  • Missing Android Auto integration
  • Frequent permission prompts and invasive permission requests

Convenient in theory, but the problem is that the app will frequently freeze, which makes navigating this app a pain. There isn't a specific way to alleviate this issue; I'll try closing the app, force stopping it, clearing the cache, all sorts of things and it will still freeze up. All I ever use this app for is creating temporary keys and it's a hassle.
