User Reviews

Users appreciate Insteon's reliable hardware and improved app stability with modern UI and smart home integrations. However, multiple reviews highlight significant software shortcomings such as missing features, unreliable device status updates, poor UI choices causing excessive scrolling, lack of proper notifications for subscription status, and bugs in key functionality like scheduling and keypad controls. Despite positive hardware feedback, app issues often force users to revert to older versions for essential control, indicating that the app still requires substantial improvements to meet user expectations.

Pros

Reliable Insteon hardware with good longevity and minimal failures over years of use.
Improved stability and usability compared to previous versions, with ongoing updates and bug fixes.
Strong integration with Google Home and Alexa for smart home automation.
Supports control of legacy Insteon hubs and devices, maintaining user's investments.
Cleaner, modern UI/UX design compared to older apps.

Cons

App lacks important features such as camera support, complete room/scene management, and mini-remote keypad configuration.
Device status does not update correctly in the app, causing confusion about actual on/off states.
Large device tiles lead to excessive scrolling and poor usability; room labels are small and hard to read.
App fails to notify users properly about subscription expiration or errors, leading to unexpected loss of functionality.
Bugs with scheduling and dimmer level controls; limited options to precisely set levels or manage schedules.
Inability to reliably use keypads or scenes due to software bugs, causing user to revert to old app versions.

Recent reviews

Downloaded this app, changed my password on my computer, have tried uninstall and reinstall, still says my info is wrong even though I can log in on a desktop. I don't recommend this app or company bc of this.

Re*****, 2025-01-06

I have been an Insteon device user for probably 10 years now. The new regime seems far and away improved over the old. The current app is a breeze and more stable compared to the old and I am so glad devices are available to purchase again as well. Personally, I feel this is the best product line on the market by far!
