Very poor experience. App will not take instructions unless you force stop it 3to4 times each time you try to do something like turn heating on or off. Never accepts instructions on first attempt. No issue reading temp in zones or connection to WiFi just doesn't hold instructions. Worst heating App I have ever used. Wish I'd never changed from Climote.

Got this 2 years ago and it only worked once so didn't bother with it. Had new boiler installed and the EPH set up. Low and behold app still doesn't work. Keep getting... 'Rf connection failure between the programmer and the gateway' Tried all trouble shooting instructions. So disappointing!

Worst app ever. Took hours to download and pair. Then we can change times in settings for morning showers so we have cold showers. I hate this app.

Used to be great (installed in 2020). Lately, it just doesn't communicate with the heating system. It looks as if it is, but the heat rarely turns on and the thermometres definitely don't adjust. Not what is once was.

Works a charm every time. Great system. The team at Ember is super knowledgeable and helpful

I have an android phone, I downloaded the app, entered my email for a new account, no verification code has been sent, I've tried this process at least 30 times and no code, is there another way to set up an account??
