User Reviews

The iOS tpPLC app offers easy setup and basic device management with access to a web UI, and can help diagnose network bottlenecks. However, its major drawbacks are inconsistent device discovery, iOS local-network permission issues, lack of support for newer devices, reliability problems after OS updates, and weak support options, leading to a largely negative user experience.
Pros
  • Easy to install and set up.
  • Provides basic administration of the TP-Link network from the iOS app.
  • Access to the device's web interface for more advanced configuration.
  • Helpful for diagnosing bottlenecks and viewing per-device speeds.
Cons
  • Device discovery and connectivity are unreliable on iOS; devices disappear or show operation timeouts.
  • Local network permission issues: the app does not appear in iOS Settings to grant Local Network access and fails to request it properly.
  • Lack of support for newer TP-Link devices; some hardware is not supported by the app.
  • Reliability can break after iOS updates, with features breaking or the app becoming unusable.
  • Poor or slow support with limited troubleshooting options.

This app doesn’t allow for iOS14+ network discovery because it fails to request it from the OS. Without that request from the app, you can’t enable the feature yourself in settings. Absolutely unusable.

These are a great product for internet connectivity. I don't even know why they have this app on the App Store. I've not seen one review where it works! And I am using compatible devices. ~P.

Easy to set up. However, after a while you start having connectivity issues and extremely hard to get app support
