User Reviews

The Roost Smart Home app is frequently criticized for connectivity and reliability issues that hinder setup and daily use. Repeated WiFi/device connections failures, app crashes, and a cumbersome UI dominate the feedback. Setup guidance is often unclear, and support can be unresponsive or inadequate. On the upside, reviewers acknowledge real value from leak alerts that help prevent damage and appreciate the basic home-protection concept and data provided by the system. Overall, improvements to stability, UX, and documentation are repeatedly requested.
Pros
  • Leak alerts help prevent water damage
  • Provides useful home data and alerts (e.g., temperature and humidity)
  • Concept offers value for home protection
  • Some users find the devices cheap and easy to set up
Cons
  • Cannot connect to WiFi or devices; repeated connection failures
  • App crashes and instability during setup and use
  • Poor UI/UX and confusing configuration
  • Setup instructions are unclear and the setup process is hard
  • Support/responses and compatibility issues (outdated app, verification/support problems)

Obviously, never tested with customers. Embarrassing for a company that seems to be new and growing. Awkward, poorly thought out (if it was at all). Fix this.

It seems like they had a good idea but haven’t made any updates in several years so the product and app feel ancient. Makes you think they’re probably going to end support pretty soon and close up shop. It’s a shame they don’t even try to update it. This company desperately needs to invest in itself.
