The ecobee residential mobile app has been completely redesigned with a focus on user experience, and rebuilt with all-new functionality. The app layout matches the home screen of the ecobee3 smarter wi-fi thermostat, making it ...
The thermostat and the sensors are 5 stars the app is 2 stars The app works but is very buggy has weird glitches and I have to close and reopen a lot Hopefully Ecobee is working on these issues as I am not the only one it appears Great product buggy app
Always Problems A minor one now But still a concern After updating the Apple iOS now the widget doesnt work Why is Ecobee always behind the 8Ball with their functions Ecobee3
I love being able to sit in my chair feeling too cold or hot and adjust the temp on my thermostat without getting up And I can decide how long I want that change to last I havent had issues with the app It looks just like the thermostat When I first got my ecobee3 I complained in my Amazon review that some of my sensors were losing contact I got an email from Tech Support who sent me a couple more sensors That did not fix the problem and before I knew it they sent me a new thermostat I have had no issues since then I love my thermostat and I have no issues with the app And the tech support is great too Love the ease of use
This app does what it needs to but not a ton more Plenty of control over my ecobee3 and thats really all I need from it Nice functional
Please fix the app not sure if its because Im on iOS9 but it is so buggy I cannot use the app Anytime I try to change a setting you cannot select or deselect items Love my Ecobee but fix the app Love the thermostat but the App is buggy
Please keep updates coming Last update was Months ago on my thermostat Support your product dont abandon it Please update ecobee3 FW
Thanks for the iOS 9 update Working great now on iPhone and iPad The ecobee3 thermostat is great and working well in my home This app works as a great interface to it It is built to look just like the thermostats interface and that consistency is nice HomeKit support seems to be a bit in its infancy but thats as much if not a lot more Apple as ecobee Still using Siri to command and query my thermostat is a pretty cool gimmick the future is here ecobee3 is great app works great from anywhere
The Ecobee app has to be the worse app Each time you open the app it takes a long time to connect The thermostat is great the app is awful Not the greatest app
After having access to the iOS 9 betas for months there is no excuse for the terrible and almost inoperable performance of this app Seriously fix it guys come on Terrible app on iOS 9
Unfortunately still a terrible app I dont know what to say The actual ecobee3 device is amazing but app is terrible and barely functions Its too bad App is horrible
Awesome product with regard to the Thermostats The mobile app is now having issues on bot h my iPhone and iPad Cant open temperature settings to make adjustments Windows dont close when hitting the X Had to resort to web client to make any changes Please fix so this product can continue to shine IOS 9 Fail
After update to iOs9 it is unusable If you click on a tile to open submenu you can not close it anymore You have to close app completely Love the productplease fix app Also what happened to monthly report feature Disappeared from menu IQ Worked ok until iOs9
Sense ios9 it does not work correctly If you click on a setting it brings you back to the main screen over and over Issues
App has always struggled some but iOS 9 has largely made it unusable The device is so nice I wish their web and apps were as well Ecobee and iOS 9 are not friends
Lousy QA many functions dont work at all Hardware is fine app feels pre 10 Did anyone even test it
Since iOS 9 both the watch and iPadiPhone apps have broken I have faith in that you guys are working on these apps as we speak I agree with the review below This app needs to be a native iOS app This looks really cheap compared to all the other work youve done to build this company Get a native app on here and I think we would all be happy Love my new thermostat though Put my Nest in the box and brought in Ecobee3 Thank you iOS 9 Killed the app
Finally An update that works Thanks IOS 9
Love how simple it is yet you can set some pretty advanced features up over the app No issues thus far Very intuitive
It worked pretty well when I was on iOS 8x but when I upgraded I started having trouble moving out of the sensors menu Sometimes I cant get out of sensors at all and I have to shut the app down and start over I hope they make the necessary changes for this app to work on IOS 90 Buggy with iOS 90
The ecobee3 seems to work well This app is terrible Extremely buggy its too difficult to do anything with It gets stuck in a loop on a screen and wont move on just reloads the same page Then it crashes Rush to market or bad development Either way bad customer experience Great thermostat terrible app
Good app for the ecobee it needs to include more HomeKit stuff but over all its not too bad ecobee Ok app
Read all the other 1 and 2 star reviews and you will know that on iOS 9 this app just stinks Please Ecobee fix this so our 250 thermostat has the app it deserves A big bag of hurt
Love the concept but the system is still buggy Im experiencing issue with the sensors that are not connecting properly to the thermostat Its connecting and looses the connection even though the sensor is 10feet away The iPhone app has cool animation but the animation seems to make the app buggy Tapping the back button animates the screen but you actually stay on the same screen The app is not very smooth The iPad seems to be a web app looks great but terrible user experience Tapping any action button on the screen is a pain Takes forever to load Just not usable I choose this product over nest for the HomeKit integration and the remote sensors However the HomeKit disable the auto mode that can switch from heater to HVAC not ecobees fault but a deal killer And the remote sensors just dont connect For 250 you expect the product to work properly I am thinking about returning the product and trying Nest Needs to be reliable
The bug have been fixed Great growing company Great App
I just purchased a HomeKitenabled ecobee3 and its a fantastic device Because of how well the product packaging and website are designed I was expecting nothing less from the iOS app Boy was I surprised The app is NOT a native iOS app but rather the HTML website shoehorned into an iOS wrapper and it shows Taps dont always register Javascript animations often repeat themselves multiple times the interface is laggy etc Honestly the interface here is simple enough that it would take an experienced iOS developer just a couple weeks to revamp your interface to something completely native ecobee please do us all a favor and hire that iOS developer now Your product deserves an app worthy of it Great product lousy HTMLbased app
Update 92616 The app works a little better now that they fixed some bugs and made it auto login if you had 1 thermostat however the app is still poorly designed Widgets dont work unless app is open in background and apple watch app also does not work unless app is open With watch os2 they should make it have more controls like turning on and off the unit I know they could redesign them both to work without the app being open in background Wish they would spend the time and money on the app because a poor app that lacks features will make people move to a different company Nest is always improving their app vs just fixing bugs Old review Widgets dont work watch app fails to install extra clicks now to get to control my thermostat Maybe they should have done a survey to see how many people have 2 or more thermostats before making the app default to a view for multi selection screen Nest at this point is better app Bad
1 Data collection issues for usage report Numerous blocks of time missing until recently Helpfully server issues fixed 2 Remote sensor continually losses connection to thermostat and reconnects Their support rep tires to blame on me moving the sensor or house structure One interior wall between sensor and thermostat and never moved 3 App does to function well and crashes in iOS 9 Their support staff had no clue iOS 9 released nor when app will function in IOS 9 Showing Celsius on Apple Watch since upgraded iPhone to iOS 9 Nothing but problems
This app should be pull down from Apple Store One of the worst decision i have ever made by removing nest and installing ecobee This app deserve zero star They need to hire someone who knows programming and write this app from scratch What a worst app in store
I have had my EcoBee3 with HomeKit for a little over 2 months I love it The app helps you if you need to adjust your thermostat or create new custom settings Highly Recommend EcoBee
Barely works on iOS9 Click into screen and it opens and then goes back out Have to click in like 5 times before it stays Very consistent bug HomeKit support and customer service is poor Im really surprised theyre Homekit certified given the poor Apple and iOS integration Website also has very little HomeKit documentation last time I checked Edit 926 Newest version seems to have fixed ios9 problems Extremely buggy on iOS9 fixed in newest version
Thats all it does now show me a spinning pinwheel Does not load any data or settings Also doesnt work with HomeKit anymore Come on ecobee Great spinning pinwheel
Who thought this was a good idea Hire a real iOS developer and make a real app This is a joke Update it now works on iOS 9 I understand that they want to emulate the UXUI from the physical unit but I still would rather have an actual native iOS app This still feelslooks like a web app Works
I love my ecobee3 and I think the app is good in theory However the execution leaves much to be desired I get the impression that there is no QA with the app It works 75 of the time but randomly drops to previous screens or shows code for a split second before it renders By far this is the app that I have to force close and reopen the most I feel like the devs settle for mostly working which isnt enough for a premium product or experience It really makes me wonder if NEST would have been a better choice Currently the ONLY reason I didnt return my ecobee was because of the additional temp sensors If I can actually see big if in this app what zones are currently at around my house it is pretty nifty Please please please QA these releases and make the experience cleaner If you used it you would know that many of these reviews are legitimate and just want the app to work more than some or most of the time Still has significant issues
I guess some bugs might have been fixed but the app is still unusable on iOS 9 Button presses dont register and respond as they should both on an iPhone 6 and iPad Air lots of graphic glitches and it eventually crashes Still not working on iOS 9
Great app Great
I cannot link my thermostats to HomeKit with this app in iOS 9 Support was clueless that iOS 9 had been released today I had to point them to Google to prove it They thought it wasnt released until October 30th Wake up Heads should roll on the development team App doesnt work with HomeKit in iOS 9
Most of the ios9 issues are fixed Where are the new features Downgrading my rating in October if nothing new appears Ios9 better
Very happy with the thermostat All thermostats that offer a circulate feature start at 200 so an extra few for this thermostat that comes with remote sensors was easy to justify One issue with the thermostat The circulate 15 minutes per hour feature is only configurable via the app When configuring circulate settings on the thermostat itself the settings do not take To set circulate follow these exact steps the sequence is important Main Menu System Fan Pick a minimum fan runtime I picked 15 minutes Quick Changes Fan Set to On Quick Changes Fan Set to Auto This will set the fan to circulate for a minimum of 15 minutes every hour and this change will be reflected on the thermostat interface as well as the app Note that if you change this directly on the thermostat the change will not be reflected in the Quick Changes menu and the fan will not circulate as configured directly on the thermostat Circulate settings only work when configured from the app using the above sequence iOS 9 issues resolved Great app Only way to control fan circulate feature
Post iOS 9 installation and app update Both apps are EXTREMELY broken after iOS 9 upgrade and the latest app update Panels in iPad app refuse to open close At odd times panels appear to draw in duplicate one in normal position and second dropping off the bottom edge of the screen The programmers hired to do this work should be fired and never work in the field again Go back to roasting chestnuts on the street corner ASAP Otherwise your apps are A JOKE BAD BAD JOKE PS Fake BelindaButler and Seven3Five probably solicited and paidfor reviews with 5 stars arent fooling anyone Update on sensor the buggy sensor positioned 20 and a floor away from the thermostat kept reporting low battery after only 2 months on the wall After a heated debate Ecobee sent me a replacement After 2 weeks it started exhibiting the same behavior Really Good product HORRENDOUS APP
Love the new version with iPhone 6 optimization If you have the new Ecobee3 smart thermostat then this is the app for you It perfectly matches the display on the thermostat and gives you all the remote functionality that you need while away If you have one of the older thermostats then the original app might be a better fit but this version of the app will still provide complete control of all Ecobee thermostats albeit with an updated look and feel Fresh UI
This app replicates all of the functions of your thermostat in the app It makes it easy to know what adjustments are being made Thermostat in your phone
Thank you for removing the extra step up front when I dont have a HomeKit thermostat Why add a step
The thermostat and sensors are great the iOS app on the other hand is a complete joke The menus are all messed up some programming code is showing up etc probably the worst app I have on my phone HIRE SOMEONE QUALIFIED TO WORK ON YOUR IOS APP UPDATE The latest update fixed the messed up menus But I wish you developed real iOS app instead of this web based JS crap Is this a joke
App locks up on subscreens and will not allow you to return to the main screen Must force close swipe up the app from the the switcher Widget does not display any information in iOS 9 Infrastructure still has problems You cannot control your thermostat through the app unless their servers are up and running even at home The ability to use remote sensors is great Currently I have three of them installed The problem is you cant adjust the weighting across the sensors other than use or dont use You also cannot adjust the temp threshold for triggering onoff Humidity is measured but you cannot trigger onoff heatcool events based on those readings Concept shows great promise but the company does not seem to grasp the idea of enterpriselevel availability If you need to rely on a remote system vacation home rentals travel etc you should look elsewhere for now Problems with iOS 9
Applied upgrade my iPhone can not connect to my Ecobee via Wifi or cellular Connection to device
I think like others have said the app is just a portal to the website Half the time taps dont register and everything is insanely laggy The animations repeat themselves and its confusing Bought this because packaging looked good and it supported HomeKit Feel like I made a mistake wish I could return App is complete crap
I have been having a great experience with this product and app so far Very easy to set maintain and adjust temp throughout the house Between the great app and the remote sensors I am finding that whoever room I am in is cool and comfortable Home much cooler this summer
The app is just like controlling the actual thermostat without being cheesy with skeumorphisms Its great that ecobee was quick to develop a watch app too Finally an app that models reality
Loved Ecobee app on iPad until this last update on iOS9 Pretty much unresponsive once you leave the main screen Have to terminate app and restart Worked until last update
The ecobee3 is amazing The app needs some dev time I suspect it is because of the iOS9 update the rest of the products fit and finish are out of line with the apps performance I look forward to future updates Amazing product app needs work
