UPDATE: after reaching out to Run Chicken, they informed me that there is still a way to adjust the open and close times via the app for the "older models" that do not have Bluetooth. (I have the T-50 model). In the app, you must go to MENU, then click on "older models config" from there the process will look familiar. Run Chicken however, should make this more obvious. The run door itself is the best around. Never fails, and is of solid construction. The app could use some improvement.

The update no longer allows you to program doors that do not come with Bluetooth. This is a major problem as most of the doors in circulation likely are not Bluetooth models. Please revise the app ASAP. Update: Thank you for the quick fix. I was able to reprogram our doors today.

Great app for controlling the chicken door! Only one thing would be nice to have, and thay would be on the "open delay", if the sunrise open delay could be set to zero minutes. Other than that, great app! Great door! Thanks!

The older configuration link is broken. Can you please fix, so I can adjust my chicken coop door times again? Since the new app update I cannot open and close the door from my phone.

Like many others have said, the app was fine until they updated it recently to only work with Bluetooth doors. I've seen the developer respond to other reviews saying "use the older models config button in the menu bar". That does not work because the link to the website it's supposed to bring you to is broken. That button is useless. This company makes a great door but whoever they had created/configure the new version of the app is incompetent. My door is useless now.
