## Review summary

The app is handy for basic setup and mobile use, with a usable UI for common tasks. However, reliability is a major issue: updates often break router discovery and cause misleading “not connected” errors, maintenance patches may destabilize the app, and many advanced features from the web admin are missing in the app. VPN compatibility is inconsistent (PIA, NorthVPN). Some users also experience white screens or crashes and feel support is lacking. Overall, it’s useful for simple tasks but not dependable for full configuration or travel use.

### Pros

- Easy/basic router setup via the iOS app, often easier than using the web UI on a phone.
- Solid UI and usability for common tasks, making routine configurations straightforward.
- Useful for mobile/remote configuration contexts, enabling basic management away from a computer.

### Cons

- App updates frequently break router discovery/connection; users report the app won’t find the router after updates.
- App sometimes reports not connected even when it is connected, leading to confusing and misleading errors.
- Lacks many advanced admin features present in the web console; users must switch to the web UI for full control.
- VPN compatibility issues (e.g., with PIA and NorthVPN) when using the app.
- Stability and testing concerns: white screens, crashes, and inconsistent behavior across devices, with perceived poor support.
