User Reviews

HOBOconnect for iOS is broadly criticized for reliability and usability. Reviewers report frequent crashes and instability, especially when opening files or connecting to devices, plus ongoing connection and firmware update failures that in several cases brick devices. Data management suffers from an inability to delete old data and file handling problems, including corrupt downloads and confusing save locations. UI is seen as non-intuitive, with feature limitations and inconsistent graph labeling. Some mention better Android stability and prompt support, but overall sentiment is negative.
Pros
  • Customer service is prompt to respond to issues.
  • Device discovery works and firmware update prompts appear when a device is connected.
Cons
  • Crashes and instability when opening files or connecting to devices.
  • Persistent connection failures and firmware update problems that can cause disconnections or bricked devices.
  • Inability to delete old data or clear historical data.
  • Data/file handling issues: downloaded files can be reported as corrupt or cannot be opened; exported graph images save to an unexpected location.
  • Compatibility issues with certain loggers after updates, causing devices to become incompatible.

Did not let me connect my brain stems to the local hobo population. 10 years of planning for my evil scheme down the drain

Crashed when attempting to connect to a known-good mx2201 logger with a brand new battery.

The old app actually worked. Now I’m forced to use this garbage that fails configuration every time I try. It doesn’t tell me why. Why do companies do this, they always take something working and make it worse.
