"The app got worse on my Samsung 22Ultra. It won`t switch to Away mode and show it on the Dashboard which is frustrating. Update The app got worse, it says my phone has left the geofence and I`m sitting I`m my living room watching TV and it went to Auto Away, this is a normal occurrence and frustrating."

"App alerts only indicate ``an event`` and no longer indicates type of event, i.e. the mode change as in `away` or `home` or `standby`."

"Abode and its devices work very well, but for the Outdoor camera. The app is very easy to use, including when setting up CUE progammed automations on the app."

"Very glitchy! It works but there are lots of small delays and non intuitive functions. It just always feels like it`s in beta. I hope more focus is put on this app because it`s my only detractor from this company preventing my recommendation to other prospective customers"

"Alarm is triggered and the app throws up service sales ads for professional monitoring blocking you from dismissing the blaring alarm. Abode continues to slowly fall from grace as it is on its way to profit over people and product."

★★★
"the app does not consistently work for setting between home / away/ standby. This is pretty disappointing. They have improved video motion sensitivity last year to be decent. One big miss in video capture is that after it captures motion, records for your set time (30 seconds ect) it will then not record subsequent motion for a length of time. So it misses any/all important event directly after any capture that is done. Clearly a huge security fail."

"This app is terrible it`s slow and difficult to use. The camera goes offline and you have to start all over with start up I`m sending it back."

"The new device groups feature is a nice idea, but the UI starts freezing up longer and longer the more groups you add. I think I had ten groups or something and the app would keep becoming unresponsive on that page. I ended up deleting all the groups and it`s responsive again. A pretty bad bug."

"App: requires constant uninstalling/reinstalling. System: Cameras constantly require resetting, crash from updates, & doorbell/camera rings randomly regardless of settings or doesnt ring at all. Cameras previously only took pics/vid when in away/armed mode, that option is gone now cameras record AT ALL TIMES... creepy. When used wirelessly the hub incessantly switches networks 24/7 notifying my phone. CONSTANT issues with no actual resolutions. Just scripted, cookie-cutter responses 😠."

"Their new update is hiding critical functionality behind a paywall, one that did not exist prior to the update. I definitely see this trend continuing."

"Unable to get Abode Iota installed & functional. App won`t get past the ``permit #`` screen. Doesn`t know about my gateway, the fob or the door sensor it initially setup. An hour later after trying to add a camera it forgot those devices but shows my camera (although not the video feed). Uninstalled & reinstalled but no luck. Going to have to pull it all out & bin it."

"I agree with most other users. Abode used to be good but now support is terrible. They also force you to pay for a subscription with very limited use unless you do so. I definitely would not have purchased this system had I know the changes they would be forcing. I paid for a subscription for a few years but refuse to pay since the quality and support have deteriorated."

"App cannot add color light bought from Abode. Contacted customer service and was sent instructions for installation but when that didn`t work, stop getting help."

"The most recent update has broken my ability to test my legacy motion cameras; I can no longer snap pictures. If you have one of Abode`s legacy alarm systems (pre-Iota series), your likely not to get much support."
