Works great and super attentive developer
Have been using this with my Lutron RRA2 setup for a few months now. It works perfectly pretty much every time. Home screen widget is a game changer for me. I also have to mention the quick and attentive support I got. My wife downloaded the app and hit a weird bug on her phone where she wasn’t able to get the app to open without crashing (everything worked fine on my phone). I went to the support section on my phone and emailed asking if there’s any way to fix the issue. After about a day they responded and after a couple more emails exchanging details they found the bug and have already submitted a fix to the App Store. Good stuff!
