## Description

Bali Motorization App gives you complete control of Bali Motorized Shades from your mobile device. It supports Bluetooth for in-home control and an optional Bali Gateway (USB plug) for remote access, plus multi-user permissions, routines, firmware updates, and compatibility with Alexa and Google Home.

The app can combine Bluetooth and Z-Wave for flexible shade management—up to multiple shades per gateway—and emphasizes energy savings by automating shade movements based on time, sunrise/sunset, and room needs. It also helps with safety by making it look like you're at home even when you're away.

## Review summary

The Bali Motorization iOS app is largely criticized for reliability and stability issues, including crashes, slow performance, and unstable gateway/Bluetooth connections that disrupt automation. While setup and multi-shade management can be straightforward for some, the majority report unreliable schedules, poor UX, and frequent disconnects that undermine daily use. A subset of users does experience smooth operation when the app works, but overall sentiment is negative due to persistent reliability problems.

### Pros

- Easy setup and pairing for many users, with several reviews noting flawless initial setup and quick shade linking.
- Ability to manage multiple shades and perform basic adjustments (such as defining limits) once the system is set up.
- Shades function and respond reliably when the app is working, according to users who experience proper operation.

### Cons

- App is buggy and unstable, with crashes, freezes, long load times, and a persistent spinning/loading circle.
- Gateway/Bluetooth connectivity is unreliable, featuring frequent disconnects, delays in reconnecting, and occasional gateway failures.
- Scheduling/automation is not reliable; routines often fail or behave inconsistently after firmware updates.
- Poor user experience and design; perceived unprofessional UI and a lack of critical information about shade status.
- Shades can disappear or lose room associations, and transfers/links can be problematic for some users.
