Terrible app - setup procedure is slow and error-prone, keeps losing the list of devices, insists on passwords using policies that were obsolete decades ago, fails to request camera permission for QR scan, keeps returning to the function select mode once it has logged in, and the information you get once it does get past all that is minimal at best. Skip this and use the web admin page instead if you can.

App is unstable in connection. Keeps losing connection to my router. Even when I am connected on the same wifi as my routee, it would lose the connection. Becomes a hassle just to adjust settings on the router.. Involves multiple attempts as connection keeps dropping. Please fix this! It's your own propiertiery hardware and software!

This app and the devices were great, but when I upgraded from an AX6000 to BE9300 I lost the ability to schedule a different weekend bedtime to weekdays without having to pay a subscription. You put a simple feature that is free on other routers and put it behind a pay wall. instead for paying you for this greed I will no longer use your brand.
