I’ve been using the Hub system and App for perhaps 3-4 years now, coming from the Cyber Commander system. Visually the App has always been nice, but took a long time to find lights and when it did, sometimes it would loose them after a time. After some experimentation, I realized my phone has to never go into lock mode, AND, it needs to be plugged into a battery in order for the App to maintain its connection to the Hub. Do those two things and there were a lot less disconnects to HUB. Now with the latest update, the App finds the lights very quickly, and does a better job of remembering them if disconnected or turned off. I’m very happy with the improvements they have been making.

Slow and unreliable to find connected flash units. User interface is not friendly. Changing the power settings by hitting +/- on the power control?! Seriously?! Have devs heard of direct entry field or at least scroll control?
