Missed opportunity

By Legion Burn (Pcmac user)

This all has some serious issues design wise. Very odd stuff like I have the ability to start a wash from the app, but not being able to start the drying cycle killing the convenience a smart app provides by making pretty useless since I have to get back home to finish the wash/dry cycle. The app is in Spanish for some reason and no option to change language (set up was in English though). There are many options in the app that reflect the actual buttons and function I can use on my washer/dryer combo, but about 90% of them are greyed out in the app without explaining why (it only lets me start a regular washing cycle which is just one of about 15 washing modes the machine has). Another dumb thing is that I need to physically push a button on the machine called remote mode to be able to use the app to set up a load and even dumber is the fact that while this remote mode is enabled I can’t monitor the was/dry cycle, it’s set up in a way where you can either control the machine with the app or monitor the wash/dry cycle with the app, but never both unless I walk to the machine and switch modes. The only nice thing is that I get a push notification when the laundry load is done. Please get your act together the app.
Helpful

By ARAT79 (Pcmac user)

Turns out my laundry load was too small and so the moisture sensor thought the load was dry. Even though that’s not a system malfunction I appreciated that the tips right after the test suggested this happens normally with small loads and suggested I use a timed dry. I think it was helpful to run the diagnostic right after the issue, it’s programmed well enough to troubleshoot the contextual situation apparently and suggest appropriately for it! The only reason I didn’t give it a five was that the last time I had an issue, the heat wasn’t working at all but it still said all was well, even though it was being powered, eventually I reset all the circuit breakers and cleaned lint that was lodging under the lint trap. I think the circuit breaker reset was the trick that time. Overall I’m thankful for the system!
It works, but is limited and buggy

By Gaz in VT (Pcmac user)

I’m giving this a 2 because it really should be better coming from the app. First off, when you switch modes, the temp resets, usually down to 60. So if you have the temp set at 70for cool and then you want to change it to energy saver mode, you have to reset the temp. The other big mistake is the scheduling. It only turns on and off the unit based on the last mode. So you can’t really schedule it. Since I have one of the AC units in my home office, I would really like to be able to set it to dry during the weekends and then schedule it to energy saver at a specific temp for the morning and then to cool at a different temp during heat mid day and then back to energy saver at one temp from say 5pm till 9pm and then back to dry overnight. NOPE! Also, it would be great if this app could control the lighting on the unit. We have one of the new dual inverter window AC units in our bedroom and we have to cover the temp readout because it lights up the room. Since there isn’t a way to control it on the unit, it’s not really an app problem... but it should be configurable! I also don’t like the fact that it requires internet access. If the controller and the unit are on WiFi, the app should be able to make connection without requiring internet. When you purchase a new router you can discover it from any computer. And it’s NOT HomeKit compatible! Come on the app, improve your technology!
Please fix schedule function for AIr Conditioner

By russgreco (Pcmac user)

This is a revised review. Some of the bugs have been fixed but this app still needs a lot of improvement for air conditioner control of the new dual inverter window units. Please pass this suggestion to the developers!! The dual inverter is amazing quiet technology but the app is limited. The schedule function does not make sense and does not work properly- only one schedule can be set. Then it only lets you set a time on and off but can not define temperature, mode or fan speed. This is useless. The timer function basically does the same thing. Why bother with a single schedule with no ability to define any other setting? Like any of the other competing apps for ACs, when creating a schedule you should be able to define the following for each schedule: 1) date and time 2) on or off(not both) 3) mode (cool, fan, dry, sleep - if sleep then how many hours) 4) fan speed (F1, F2, F3 or disabled if sleep is mode) 5) temperature set point. You should be able to create multiple schedules!! If you did this then people who are suffering from the sleep timer turning the unit off during their sleep could set a schedule to turn the unit back on in the sleep mode! I can’t understand why this unit does not allow you to turn the unit on a continuous sleep mode instead of it turning off after a max of 7 hours! Please help! Make this app do what it’s supposed to do!
