User Reviews

Users appreciate Shelly Smart Control for its powerful automation but complain about a bloated, unstable UI, sign-in/account trouble, and a shift to cloud-based Shelly Experience. Pros include feature-rich controls, ease after setup, long-term reliability for some devices, and active developer support. Cons center on UX/design flaws, reliability issues, and account setup friction, with several users desiring offline/local control and simpler device integration.

Pros

Feature-rich automation and extensive control for Shelly devices.
Generally easy to understand and intuitive after setup.
Works well for many users and devices over time.
Active developer support with responsive bug fixes.

Cons

Poor UI/UX: bloated, confusing navigation, and lack of back navigation.
Stability issues: frequent loading/unresponsive behavior and occasional disconnects.
Sign-in and account problems: login failures, sign-up problems, and password issues.
Shift to cloud-centric Shelly Experience: deprecated old app and expectations for cloud-free use.
Widget limitations and device integration friction: difficulties adding widgets and quirks when re-linking devices or router changes.

So bad I thought the device was defective. Or Shelly was having an outage. I was excited to Get this working from what I was reading on Reddit and some YouTube videos. Went to micro center and grabbed one for my project. Got home wired it up downloaded the app and literally not a single component of this app is working properly. Including sign up and logging it. Signup put in my account details which was slow and laggy. Finally get that done and go to log in says my password is incorrect. Do a password reset login starts. Sits on the logging in page no response or change. Force close the app and re open its logged in. Ok great Go to verify my email get an error “something went wrong” Go to add the device I can find it on Bluetooth get to the step to connect to my WiFi put in the password but nothing happens. Eventually error pops up device time out. It just sits there circles looking for WiFi network and circles for the next button after putting in my WiFi password. Try again adding it by connecting to the on device WiFi that just comes up error saying device not found or the adding process just closes no error. Add a room to the home opens up type the name pick a picture hit save sits there for a second closes and no room was added. Went to my computer login to the Shelly cloud website add the room. Go back to my app no room shows up. No sync I mean come on guys Finally get the device connected it by connecting to the device AP and going to the onboard web interface and toggle on WiFi 2 and put in the password for my WiFi. Hit save and it connects to my network. That’s where I stopped for the night. Figures a 30 minute install to get it connected to power and hook up the relay and set up in the app would turn into an hours long battle. App is still not working properly next morning but I’ll try and see what I can do from the web interface without using the app today for day 2.

I was unable to use the app because it forces me to sign up before using it. I do not see any reason to do so. I just want to setup my devices and use the locally. I will have to do it wo the out the app.
