User Reviews

User reviews of the ecobee SmartBuildings iOS app are mixed and skew negative. The most recurring issues are the lack of group scheduling and batch control across multiple thermostats, and the inability to copy settings between devices. Performance and reliability problems are common, including slow loading, login failures, and occasional outages, with some OS/version compatibility complaints. Support is frequently described as slow or hard to reach, and several reviewers say the mobile experience lacks many features found on the website or standard Ecobee app. A few users report stable operation and some positive installer support when it works.
Pros
  • Some users report the app is stable and works as advertised on certain iOS versions (e.g., iOS 13.x).
  • Cross‑platform usability is noted, with reports of the app working on Mac/Windows and integration with the web portal.
  • Positive installer/service support experience; local installers provide help and facilitate zoning.
  • The system enables practical zoning and per-site control when functioning.
Cons
  • Lack of group scheduling and multi-thermostat control; inability to copy settings across devices.
  • Frequent performance and reliability issues: slow loading, login problems, or app failing to load, including OS compatibility problems.
  • Weak customer support and slow/poor responsiveness.
  • Missing features and mobile functionality; reportedly bare-bones and not as capable as the website or standard Ecobee app.
  • Upsell/subscription model for group features; group functionality reportedly removed from base app to upsell.

I just want to point out that because of this app all my devices got cloned from the property manager and I am absolutely livid. Almost 2 months of fixing this and still no where

It’s 2025 with AI practically wiping my butt for me. I have 9 buildings with 15 thermostats each. They require onsite management to control grouped areas or entire areas from an app, not a desktop. Ecobee removed grouped functionality from standard app to upsell ($2 per month per stat) the building system. Luckily I tested this subscription on my personal home first. The App was made by an intern. No functionality, no group control, no building one set control. This saved me $3,500 a year in subsriptions by NOT moving forward with Building Systems.

It always has issues loading, it is very slow, you can’t select multiple thermostats at the same and turn them on or off, you can’t schedule what time the thermostats turn on and or off. This app needs a massive update to get any better.
