iHome Zenergy

The device works great, except for this app. I would probably give it a 5/5 if the app wouldn't forget my alarm settings. Like, if you save them, they will show up as saved when you switch to another tab and switch back. But if you switch tabs twice the settings show as gone. Regardless of what it shows however, the alarm does not function properly in any of these cases. Some basic automated testing on a few devices would confirm these issues for developers before release - although the issue looks to have been around for many months. I will personally fix them for a reasonable fee if the developer is willing. EDIT: I had to downgrade this to 1/5, because after a night of inactivity the device itself now won't change colors as it's supposed to, even when pressing physical buttons on the device itself.

The device will not go off during alarms even though it shows they after set and armed! Disappointed. Looks like I'll be returning the product. Honestly this is probably the worst designed app I have ever downloaded. This is literally the most unreliable alarm I have owned in my life.

Buggy and unreliable. I often have problems just getting the app to launch. It will launch on my Android about one out of six or seven times. I am completely unable to get it to connect to bluetooth. I set the presets on my phone but am unable to get them to relay back to the device. So far the app was only useful for syncing the time.

Problems with the app not remembering the frequent saves for my alarm settings. The volume and light intensity slider will reset itself back to zero. Then I have to slide it back and re-save it. Then close the app, open app again and have to reset the alarm feature back to the original settings I had just saved prior. The Bluetooth sync is fine. The alarm settings, especially for pre-alarm, is really flawed. Will probably set up the alarm directly on the device instead of using the app.

App sucks. For $100 device someone should make sure the app works to run it. Ridiculous and with so many complaints about this, why havent they sent out an update to fix the issue? Very disappointing, would have never bought had I known.

Great concept very poor production. Tried 2 different ones just to be sure and came up with different problems on each. Sounds don't match icon, set alarm for weekdays went off on weekend as well, didn't keep the correct setting.... VERY disappointing.

Needs to auto sync your phone after initial sync (like your car). Should have an option to wake to a noise, but I guess that's not really an app issue more of a selection on the unit. Noise volume should be more adjustable. Over all the app works fine on the Galaxy S7 and Note 5 (minus the re sync every time).

I like the app, as it does what I need. I've never had issues with my Bluetooth connection, except when I forget to turn it on. That being said, the Bluetooth need not be on for the alarms to work. It's very simple and I think that may be an issue for most. Too basic. The only thing I wish I could control is the darn buzzer for the alarm once the 'pre-wake' ends. It's obnoxious.

It should be simple to reconnect BT. But it seems I was required to connect thru setting before opening the app. I found a bug in sleep, the sounds are not associated with the proper icon. Zen is dream and each there after is offset.

WORST app. ever!!! I have to keep syncing and then when it does sync all the options show up for a fraction of a second and then disappear. The best thing about this product was it had an app., to bad it doesn't work!!! Back to the drawing board you guys and fix the issues. This was exactaly what I was looking for and it hasn't worked correctly since i got it! Doesn't make me wanna run out and waste money on any other products by you!

Impetuous morons. It works fine. If you get disconnected from bluetooth connection, just press the second button from top on the back of the clock and reconnect. You cannot get disconnected between your bed and clock, the manual gives a range of 33 feet. You must have a big bedroom if you do. Forget to press the bluetooth button before hitting the sheets? You haven't gone to bed before turning it on, have you? Idiots. Your stupid fault for forgetting. Indolent slanderers. False witnesses. Great product and app.

This app worked well when first installed but now won't open on my android at all. Gets to the main screen but won't get past there. Device says it's synced to my phone but time won't update after power outage. Love the device, hate the app! So frustrating.

Love the product. App needs work though. Tried several times to connect my phone always fails. Therefore the speakerphone on it is useless. App has stopped working twice while using it. If it wasn't for the app and lack of phone connection I would give the product 5 stars. Most of the other app functions are working for me, including changing sounds and volume but still a little buggy. Updates are needed asap.

Why are the developers ignoring the horrible reviews? The Android app clearly does not work. I actually lost sleep dealing with this. Product will be returned.

The app does nothing. It won't even open. I've tried uninstalling / reinstalling, Etc. and nothing works. I've used the app on my iPad but it only works about 50% of the time. The device is much easier to use with the app... unfortunately that doesn't work.

The app never works. Always have to log back in and re sync. Worst app ever. It's literally useless. Quicker to use the buttons on the machine. Ridiculous.

Love the device but the app that controls it stinks. I've tried over and over to connect using the Bluetooth button with no success. Fix the app and I'll change my review to 5 stars but for now it's a 1.

This is underrated. It deserves more than a 1.6. It isn't perfect, but I have only found one small problem with it. The alarms are a bit hard to set at first, but you get the hang of it. It's very good. Keep it up.

Worst app EVA!! You shouldn't have to delete and reinstall app after every use and the Bluetooth should automatically sync your phone/tablet EVERYTIME to the Zenergy once it is paired. Too many bugs in the app to even go into in a review. I can't depend on alarm to work. Woke up late this morning because alarm didn't go off. Taking the iHome Zenergy Bluetooth clock back. Way too expensive to have to depend on this crappy app.

I spent a hundred bucks on this device and I love the actual device. However, I download this app to control it and it doesn't go past the opening screen. It won't connect its so frustrating. Why have this app up still if it doesn't work. Smh

I love this clock and the features, but the app is difficult to use. It doesn't even work most of the time. I am disappointed in the quality of the app. I get used to a sleeping habit with it, and the. The app doesn't work. It's very disruptive.

I like this app in the general, easy way it connects with the iHome Zenergy device! No need or desire to test different difficulties while using it.

I love the clock,I just wish the app didn't suck so bad. There are a ton of little annoyance that get me knowing I spent over $100 with tax for this product. The app is easyish to navigate until you have to use it. Each time you want to set the sleep timer or alarms I have to basically reset the entire app. (Wich takes about 20 minutes total.) On certain screens like the sleep timer the zen sound isn't available. Furthermore, this product is intended to be used in the dark but the buttons on the machine aren't backlit making it extremely difficult to navigate when trying to use the machine in the dark. Lastly, I would be fine with the app sucking so hard if there was a remote that could do the work of the app. For such a wonderful idea in terms of the product, the app integration is the WORST! Please update the app! My first and maybe my last Ihome product.

Would be great if the app worked correctly, if I select nature sounds it plays air instead, just one example. Crossing fingers for updates that fix the glitches!

The Clock is a great idea but the app is the worst app ever! It forgets to set my alarm and I have it hooked to a phone that never leaves it's side

Keeps crashing every couple minutes. Only time it doesn't crash is when it's not open.

Soooo frustrated with the app. Downloaded it but now it won't do anything. Spent 100.00 on an item that promises you the app then doesn't work. Won't be buying anymore of their products anytime soon.

This app has not been compatible with my Samsung Galaxy device at all. It frequently crashes, is horribly slow and had trouble connecting to my ihome device 3 out of 4 times. The alarms don't save properly and as soon as I open the app, it starts up sounds or lights when it should just remain off. So frustrating.

This app is buggy as all get up! I can't get it save my alarm sound volume and brightness levels. It says it saves until I leave the screen. The snooze times do whatever they want. And one of the sounds are missing (though all the images show) for the sleep timer mode.

WORST. APP. EVER. Does not function with Zenergy clock and Galaxy s8. What a waste of time. Limited hours for customer support, so unless I want to take the device to work with me, I can't even get them to troubleshoot. Will be returning device to store.

This app is garbage. I would've loved to use the product but seeing as you need to use the app to set alarms I will be taking it back.

App had to be uninstalled/reinstalled repeatedly in order to connect with the clock. Forget the app and just use buttons on the clock. Clock is not bad, but not the best. App is buggy, won't open properly.

Cant get app to open on my android device. Seems this has been an issue with reviews since march 2017. Wow. Thats just bad especially for a 100 dollar device.

I love the machine and the idea of it, however the app unfortunately is terrible. I'm glad I bought the machine on sale. My favorite settings are nature sound and calm light :)

UNBELIEVABLY EMBARRASSING. ..IHome may not be a big name...however they have manage to make decent products and this alarm clock sleep aid system is with out a doubt amazing. .especially when it could sink with a app on your smart device...however the key word here is when...because this app is as unreliable and unstable as a table with only one leg.....Come on man fix the damn app and have some dignity in your products. .It syncs once...and when you close out the app..it wants you to do it again ...and yes as annoying as that is I was fine with it however..it just won't sync........now this is annoying. ..so if you are trying to change the lights.. Or music at 2 am and the baby is finally sound asleep to the sound or nature coming from the little IHome device... you have to do it manually and hear those god awful clicks that is so freaking loud....that it wakes up the baby and your back to blood shot eyes at work......so without further rambling on...without the app you have a decent Bluetooth alarm clock with lamp and radio and sound...but no remote...I guess I can live with that...but not worth the price without a working app...my suggestion from a tired dad....please update..or fix it...

Works ok once you get it to connect. Could use tweaks to the interface. Color adjustment doesn't work well at all. The device itself works fine though. App is just ok.

Bought this app for my grandma birthday for 100 bucks, love the devices but the app suck ass which won't connection to the Bluetooth I have, even through I try so many times

The app works. I think a lot of people just aren't getting how to use it. It connects through Bluetooth so you will often have to reconnect, but it takes 5 seconds. You don't need it connected all the time. Personally I connect, turn on the sleep sound I want, and then turn off the sound when I wake up.

Love the unit but the app is terrible. I have had to set my phone alarm because the alarm setting won't save. Glad to know it is not just me.

You have to connect to the device through your Bluetooth before you try to use the app and it works fine. I am using Google pixel XL
