Description
Create the perfect mood in your home using the Platinum™ App from Hunter Douglas. Use your Android™ mobile devices to easily control Hunter Douglas motorized window fashions. Far more than a remote, the Platinum App enables users to preset and reset the precise position of multiple window coverings for optimal privacy, security, energy management and mood. Moreover, customized slider bars for each Hunter Douglas motorized window covering make programming slide-to-set simple.
• Move your motorized shades individually, by room or throughout the whole home.
• Use the app’s built-in timer feature to open or close your shades at any time of day, any day of the week.
• Precisely control the natural light in every room through the use of Scenes, Room controls and timed events. Tilt vanes open to greet the day or close your shades at night for privacy and security.

★★★★★
Automation with Ease For so long it was extremely time consuming to integrate shadings into a user friendly interface. This app makes it user friendly and far less complicated to program motorization for the masses. Well done!
★★★★★
Budget Blinds Owner Innovative and ground breaking. Another reason why Hunter Douglas leads the window coverings industry on every platform.
★★★★★
Good app but lacks some features It works and it's good, but not great. Really important feature would be retrieving local dawn and dusk times so users can schedule timing according to that. e.g. open 1 hour after dawn or close 20 minutes before dusk.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work Android app shows the shades but doesn't work. iOS app works fine
★★☆☆☆
works so poorly we are going to have to replace our blinds rather than purchase equipment to make app work.
★★☆☆☆
I have to open the app at least twice to get it to connect. And the android version randomly drops days from the schedule if you disable and reenable it for a day or two. I had to buy an iPod touch just to fix that issue, plus the android version does not allow you to create schedules based on sunrise or sunset like the iOS version does.
★★☆☆☆
App doesn't work anymore for android users. If you have this app and it
suddenly doesn't work anymore you are essentially forced to have to upgrade
to power view especially if your warranty is up.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work . Hunter Douglas is a thing of the past.
