User Reviews

User reviews mainly describe BroadLink e-Control as largely unusable on current iOS due to crashes, lack of updates, and compatibility issues after iOS 15+. Repeated complaints include the app failing to open, crashing when interacting with devices, and UI misalignment after updates. Several note that Alexa/Google integration no longer works. A few mention the hardware itself still functions, but the app cannot be relied on for control. Overall, maintenance and reliability problems dominate the sentiment.

Pros

Cons

Frequent crashes and instability on iOS, including the app crashing on launch or when interacting with devices
Lack of updates from the developers leading to compatibility issues with the latest iOS versions (e.g., iOS 15+)
UI misalignment and layout problems after updates (buttons or text misaligned/shifted)
Loss of voice assistant integration (Alexa/Google) within the app

While this app/product tended to have its bugs, it was mostly working, until it wasn’t. The developers no longer update the app and have rendered the interface useless to interact with the plugs. The plugs themselves still work and do still use any old programming/timers previously set in them, but the app will only function on an older outdated/unsupported Apple device, if you still had one. Unfortunate for those of us who invested into multiple plugs, as many of us do.
