Foobot

App constantly says ‘Foobot not connected to internet’ when in fact it could be anything - e.g. phone isn’t connected, poor connection, just taking a while. Overly simplistic implementation as EVERY time my device at homes connection is, in fact, just fine. Surprising given cost of the device.

Can’t login iPhone 12

The app is buggy, slow to update, and customer service is terrible.

I was happy with the Foobot and app, but the LED timer setting stopped working recently in the app.

Bad UI all the way down to something as no brainer as using a slider that goes from midnight to midnight for setting time that the LEDs are on. What if someone works night shift? What if someone wants them to come on exactly at 8:00? Can’t set either of those because .. slider. Review basic UI design principles or test on some folks (not us) who can give feedback *before* you release. NOT to imply that that is representative of all the issues, it isn’t, but simply that they can’t even get the simplest thing right. Read other reviews for the major bugs like wrong data, etc.

Can you please bring back the old color scheme from a year ago? Now it is monochromatic. It’s more difficult to use now.

My Foobot lasted a few weeks before it would not connect to my phone anymore. I contacted customer service and after many emails they sent me a replacement foobot that did not work. I then sent that back with money out of my own pocket and they kept on saying They would send another one out and after 10 plus emails later They said they would refund my money which they never did. I think this company is run by a bunch of high school students out of a garage. Look elsewhere for better customer service and better quality.

These guys are completely incompetent and make a terrible product. Read the other reviews! Mine was dead on arrival. After sending in the confirmed DOA unit, two months of constantly begging for a replacement, and finally offering to go to court because they basically stole my ~$200, I got a refund. Zach Kenny, their "support" rep should be fired. I think he spends most of this day licking the window and eating chocolate soft serve out of the toilet. DONT BUY!

I have been using this device for four years. In my experience, there are some good and bad things. Pros: 1- VOC sensor very helpful. 2- the light representative of the AQI simple to Observe even in the distance. Cons:1- pm2.5 sensor not accurate at all( not even near the correct value). 2- temperature and humidity sensors reported a precise result when you switch it on, but after a while, the results start to shift from the correct value. 3- the app needs to be improved, especially the history page.

The android app lets me drill down by the minute by category. The iPhone app lets me view trends. I don’t understand why the functionality is so different.
