User Reviews

Users broadly praise DS Router as a best-in-class router management app with strong parental controls and an easy-to-use interface. However, recurring login/authentication issues, slow performance on remote connections, and notable feature/update gaps (threat logs, storage management, device updates) temper the experience. Overall sentiment is positive for parental controls and core management but reliability and feature parity could improve.

Pros

Often cited as the best router management app by users.
Strong, feature-rich parental controls (schedules, per-child limits, multiple networks).
Easy-to-use interface and clean design that makes basic tasks straightforward.
Clear device visibility and network control within the app.

Cons

Frequent login/authentication problems and friction (requires authenticator, long login times, occasional inability to log in).
App performance can be slow/laggy, especially over external networks or during QuickConnect usage.
Feature gaps and dated app experience (desire for threat logs, storage management, package updates; parity with browser; not updated recently).

Recent reviews

App needs some serious improvements in certain areas. anything at all that connects to this router is listed even if it is offline, you cannot remove those, or purge that offline list. this is frustrating when something is trying to hack into the wifi network. you should also ask you when you connect a device If you want to add it to the safe mac list. don't expect to get everything done with this app.. It could have been implemented much better.
