Senville

This too too much bad for set up wifi

Bought the unit for my gym room thinking i can use the amp to control the temp before i get my workout end , and the unit will not connect to the app at all, don’t even give you a option to scare the bar code, had to connect it thru Alexa, which is ok but i really need the app to work correctly, at times wish i went another way

Did everything the manual says. Don’t work whatsoever. Wasting time.

QR code doesn’t work, and pressing the LED button 7 times to activate AP doesn’t work.

I bought a senville mini split to test it out as I have to install at least 7 -10 mini splits in my house. I bought one unit to test it out in our rental property. But boy am I going in a different direction. This app is truly the worst app on the planet. I have the strongest WiFi in my house but this unit seems unable to find it. It has been impossible to connect this to the app so I can control it remotely. There’s no point in investing in this stuff if one cannot control it wirelessly. Well, with so much competition in the market I’m pretty sure some other brand can deliver in this regard.

I had similar issues to others in terms of bugging this and general inconsistency with the native Senville app. After reviewing several user forms, I found that the third-party Midea mobile app would work just fine as an alternative remote controller for Senville units. Since they are all effectively manufactured by Midea and then rebranded under a different name (as many are in the sector) you’re effectively just using the original first party mobile app that’s also updated far more often than Senville’s (based on the release history here). Has been great for me and offered out of the box Alexa integration from day, one without an additional/updated Wi-Fi dongle purchase. Give it a shot when you are within Wi-Fi/Bluetooth range of your head units and see if it works for you!

These things are awful and I highly regret buying this brand. They say it integrates with Amazon Alexa but it constantly disconnects and then there’s this app. Forget about it. This one’s even worse.

Use Alexa and save yourself headaches

I spent over $4000 on a Senville mini split and can’t connect to it, I’ve tried for hours. This app is worthless

A useless app. Keeps disconnecting. I have installed Mr.Cool, Pioneer and Senville mini splits and these mini splits are the worst. Will never buy from this company again. App are useless and mini splits are not energy efficient as other 2 brands. Stay away. Return them if you have bought them and get the Pioneers. They are great for the price and perform wonderful.
