Comments on Smart Home Collection for Android

★★★★★ Leonardo Mesquita · May 2, 2023

I can control all my shades at my home and my vacation home from my phone. I love this app

★★★★☆ Jesse Tufts · Dec 24, 2024

Generally works pretty well. The hub timers will get out of sync over time, it must not have a very good internal clock? But they have a button to sync it in the hub settings of the app. This should be automatic really as our blind morning opening time will drift in the course of a few months if I haven't used the app in a while and synced it. Also, the timers really need a speed control "quiet mode" option, so you can have them open slowly and make less noise as an early morning option.

★★★★☆ Christina Spires · Mar 3, 2021

Just got the blinds and hub installed yesterday. It did take several attempts to connect to the hub. Tip: The professional said you need to temporarily disable your firewall to pair the app. The app does not fit the screen: the top bar of the three bars is cut off from the image. However, I am still able to navigate through the app. It was pretty intuitive to set up rooms, devices, scenes, and timers once the hub was connected. I have not had the disconnection issues other reviews mention.

Terrible app experience, doesn't work with Google Home as advertised. Not clear how to set up automations, and when you do, they don't work either. This app is so bad it makes me regret purchasing the "smart" blinds at all. Waste of money.

★★☆☆☆ Ian Sutanto · May 26, 2025

Not sure why they changed the app to make it worse. Now to check battery status of the electric blinds have to hold on each shade, click the setting wheel and inspect each blind for battery level. They don't seem to be very accurate anymore either. One day it'll say low, then next day it's ok and a different one will be bad. In the past you could see a percentage battery for each blind on the home page.

Trust & Safety: The app requests a broad set of permissions typical for a smart-home hub, including location (ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION), Bluetooth, network state, storage, and notification access. This supports device discovery, real-time shade updates, and remote control. Users should review the necessity of location permissions and background activity, especially when sharing access across multiple users or locations.
