Good tool
The app allowed me to update firmware using iPhone 16. I just waited a few mins and kept phone really close to the WIDI Master dongle. My setup of three MIDI devices worked well to pass clock wirelessly! Great tech!

Got this working in about 5 minutes with my iPhone 11 and and old Keystep with a flaky USB port. Power from a USB-C power bank with a 9V barrel jack adapter. Boom nearly wireless keyboard that used to be barely usable on my desk. Nice!
When I click on Download Group the app completely disappears.
UPDATE: the firmware update failed initially with an iPhone, but succeeded with an iPad. There seems to be a problem with Bluetooth cache in iOS. The device and app work great together. INITIALLY: The firmware update is the only option you have when you start the app. I left mine “updating” for an hour. Then a message: “the firmware update was aborted”. The Wido device has been bricked. It no longer connects to the app. Both the device and the app work together in this moment to guarantee that nothing works.
I spend more time fussing with this app trying to get it to work than successfully using it. It’s super glitchy and unreliable. Has killed more flow states than I can count. I am about ready to give up trying to use this poorly executed product.
Don’t bother trying this. Amateur product.
Version 1.5.2 works great for WIDI Uhost Bluetooth and USB firmware updates. I haven’t tried WIDI group auto learn yet (need an additional WIDI Uhost for iOS devices with MacBook Pro 13” M1). I’ll add to this review when I do that.
Writing this review to say I updated the firmware on my UHost just now and it was super easy, very clear instruction with no problems.
The other review here includes a solution that actually worked! Thank you!
Trying to update the firmware is a bit of a nightmare. It doesn’t work. There is a dialogue box that appears and tells you to turn off Bluetooth and turn it back on to “make this process working”. Which I did several times. It won’t update.
