## Review summary

Users praise the underlying internet service and say the app can work smoothly for some, but most reviews cite repeated connectivity failures, crashes, and a loss of key features (guest network, port forwarding, detailed device controls), making device management unreliable.

### Pros

- Fast, reliable internet/service is praised by multiple users.
- When the app is working, users report a smooth, good experience.
- Some users report no problems or a generally positive experience with the service/app.

### Cons

- Frequent connectivity/timeouts — app often cannot connect to the router or establish a session.
- Stability problems — crashes, QR-scan failures, and recurring error messages are commonly reported.
- Missing or reduced functionality vs. previous app — guest network, port forwarding, detailed device info and other management features are absent or limited.
- Poor device management — users cannot reliably monitor connected devices, run speed tests, or edit user/device settings.
