User Reviews

The FriedrichConnect app aims to provide smart control over Friedrich air conditioners but suffers from significant issues. Many users report frequent connection failures, poor scheduling functionality, and frequent logouts. The interface is often described as complicated and unintuitive. While the app allows basic controls such as temperature and fan adjustments, it struggles with reliability and responsiveness. Poor customer support and a lack of timely fixes have led to user frustration and loss of trust in the brand's smart features.

Provides remote control for Friedrich air conditioners when functioning.
Allows adjustment of temperature, fan speed, and mode.
Supports scheduling features, though functionality is problematic for many users.
Appears to reconnect automatically after internet interruptions.
Some users found support helpful in troubleshooting connectivity issues.

Cons

Frequent connectivity issues, with the app failing to connect or maintain connection to AC units.
Scheduling features are difficult to use, buggy, or broken after updates.
App frequently logs users out and fails to remember login information.
User interface is complicated or unintuitive, causing frustration with setting schedules and controls.
Lack of updates and poor customer support lead to unresolved software and firmware issues.

Recent reviews

I have used the new app since it became available. It is wonderful compared to the previous version. It still only works about 70% of the time and sometimes it takes a while to respond. It disconnected due to my Internet going out but reconnected easily. Friedrich programmers still need to improve their app. Unfortunately , it still can't be relied upon. I should say I haven't used the scheduler.

TER RI BLE! Doesn't work/connect at all! AC unit is great. I had high hopes of coming home to a cool room after turning it on remotely from work. I'm Uninstaller this as soon as I finish this review.
