App Has Several Annoying Bugs
Number one if which is that once you create a second or third schedule for a scene, there is no way to remove it. They added an add button fora new time trigger, but no delete button. This gets very annoying when trying to adjust schedules. Additionally, when editing a scene it actually moves the shades which would be ok if it you didn't have to wait for the shade to get to the set target before saving it. This makes configuring a scene VERY SLOW if you have many shades or long shades. Additionally, sometimes even after waiting for a shade to take its final position, it does not reflect that as the target position in the UI. Saving the scene at that point simply loses your changes. You must go to each share ab's push "Use current position" to get the UI to update and the changes to be saved. This is either poor UI design of a bug in their software. It is very annoying. Lastly, I have 7 shades in my living room. About 75% of the time the app appears to fail to communicate with at least sone of the shades when initiating a scene, causing me to have to keep staring at the app and wait for the inevitable "Retry" button to pop up. Their communication logic needs to be fixed. Maybe they have a timeout that is set to0 short for large numbers of shades within their apparently synchronous bluetooth loop. Please fix your bugs folks, this app has been setting for a while and people depend on it every day. All that said, the app is generally quite attractive and well designed compared to its peers, and I do commend them for that.
