App works well, controls my filters easily, and shows all the relevant information at a glance. I haven't experienced any app crashes or other problems. It could use a few small usability changes, in my opinion. I'd like the option to see raw data about air quality from the filter's sensors, instead of the oversimplified view.

When I first got the Win ix air purifier I was really disappointed that there was no remote, but I am really enjoying the app.

Pretty good but there are some features it desperately needs. I should be able to modify auto mode on my own to how I want it to react to a particular environment. There also needs to be a way for me to turn off night mode, so I can use auto mode in a dark room when I'm sleeping. I should also be able to keep my fan speed while turning on night mode, so I can turn the lights off while I'm trying to sleep.

Controls the filter perfectly, but when it comes to providing information, it lacks. For resetting the filter life light all it says is press the light. You have to press and hold for more than 5 seconds. After reading some reviews I have to wonder if my app is broken because in 14 months of owning the product/app I haven't had any adds pop up or Wi-Fi disconnects. I didn't even get a notification that the filter needed replacing. I'll consider myself lucky.

App works well with Win ix C640 & C545. Easy set up on C640, more difficult on a reconditioned C545 but got it connected after a phone restart. Using off grid very & Wi-Fi on but power off = .07 watts. App installed = 96 MB but 102 MB of User Data! Why so much user data for just 2 air purifiers? Force Close app when not using purifiers for wildfire smoke.

Had a bit of trouble connecting the unit via Wi-Fi. Moved the coffee table and faced the unit to the modem, connected easily.

Hands-down terrible: Unplugging the device to clean it makes it forget the Wi-Fi settings, every damn time. Also, it logs you out after every goddamn update. 🤬

The app itself works fine. However, the Winix-Google Home integration seems unstable and practically unusable over the last few months. You will reconnect Win ix Smart to Google Home as a *works with Google" device, and it will only stay connected to the device for a few hours before the connection fails and Google is unable to see/control the air purifier. This is occurring at the server level with Win ix and their connections with Google's API. Please fix this.

I don't know what they did with their last update, but my purifier no longer seems to connect to the app. I noticed it when it suddenly stopped following the schedule I have made for it, and manual controls aren't being sent back to the unit. Sometimes it says it's online and does nothing, other times it says it's disconnected and does nothing. Started just the other day, and I've had the unit for about a month before that with no issue.
