User Reviews

Reviews are mixed: the hardware is praised for design and ease of setup, and the app provides convenient shade control when it works. However, widespread reliability issues plague the experience, including frequent connectivity drops, crashes, broken routines, and the need for an extra bridge for voice control. Some users have positive Alexa use, but consensus leans toward frustration with reliability, updates, and support.
Pros
  • Easy to set up and install
  • Sleek, modern hardware design
  • Convenient shade control via the app when it’s connected
  • Alexa/voice control works for some users
Cons
  • Frequent disconnects between the WiFi bridge and devices; unreliable Bluetooth connections
  • App instability with crashes, freezes, and updates getting stuck
  • Routines and scheduling are broken or require extra hardware to function
  • Voice assistant integration is inconsistent and sometimes requires an additional bridge
  • Long load times and slow responsiveness, plus occasional pairing issues

The hardware looks great, the workflow to setup the hardware for the most part works well. Once you start using the app it’s very inconsistent. The WiFi enabled bridge disconnects from the devices very frequently. Routines are basically broken. Works when it wants to. For how expensive the product is this is a 1 star experience

It’s absolutely insane that in 2026 you can sell a smart device and not natively include Alexa compatibility or even scheduling. Besides that the app works great and the product works great as well.

Lots of calibrating! The link between two ends of chain can’t be problematic, but I have a tool that actually allows one to make a continuous chain, which eliminate that problem. The total effect is sleek and modern as well as quite convenient!
