It works fine. I would like to have an indicator on the app if the device is actually heating or not when i control it. Now i can see only if it's plugged in. And also i would like very much to have an energy consumption insight.

App is good. However, even though you have reboot(not the reset) all of your schedule may disappear.

App only works for remote operating "live". When I add on/off schedules for my bornholm heaters they stop working completely. Power them off, they work again until the next schedule, then they fail again.

Used to be a really good app with lots of options. You don't fix what's NOT broken, app is completely confusing now and unfit for purpose. Revert to the previous simple, many options.

Bornholm electric heater countdown function does not work! Solution - use Smart Life app instead, just switch the radiator on, hold gear symbol few seconds til it start to flash and add new device through Smart Life app.

The app cannot find my Metrobreeze Rom Smart. To enter "pairing mode" the manual of the unit tells me to follow the instructions of the app, and the app tells me to consult the manual. The app further instructs to press "Reset" which does not exists on my device. This alone will earn this app a very low rating. As the WiFi indicator light on the device does not turn on at any point, it could also be my device is faulty, which would also earn Klarstein 1/5 since this one is already a replacement.

Updated review: Used to be a good app. I lost use of a Smart heater due to their software updates, now the App is constantly crashing. Needs urgently fixing, as I'm not the only one. This experience has stopped me adding to the 5 I bought, and certainly don't recommend the brand anymore. Shame as the panels had great potential.

App used to be great but this latest version is less than ideal. The app states that the temperature in my cabin is 120 degrees centigrade which is crazy, I suggest that it should read 12.0 centigrade. This mistake means that the temperature control will not bring the heater on, also the new rotary temperature control is unusable. It will only set temperatures in 10 degree steps which is crazy.

After 14 weeks app support finally addressed my issue of my IR panel heaters working according to the old app schedules. Now of course, like many, I'm setting up new schedules and as many have pointed out, you have 2 allotted scheduling times only now on the new 'smart' setting. I'm confused as to how this is considered smart when on the old app I was able to set as many different schedules as I wanted. This makes it far less useful, and more expensive to use. Will this be addressed?

The las update made this app useless for me. Before it, I could see the water temperature live, while the Klarstein sous vide stick was warming in up. Also the remaining time during the cooking process. And there were also recipes to find in the app. Now none of this is in the app anymore. Now it is no more than a remote On/Off switch. 100% downgrade, utterly useless.
