Smart Shades

Please, add switch for enable/disable trigger. Like ios alarm. Now you can only delete trigger. It is not very comfortable then you need to make change only for one day

New units work great with Homekit. Automations and scenes work great! I see a lot of bad reviews 2 and 3 years ago, I guess all that was improved! Would recommend!!

The app opens and immediately crashes. Please fix.

Two years ago I ordered 12 devices “Soma Smart Shades” and I motorized all binds in my home. I was able to move the blinds individually up and down via smartphone or using voice commands via Siri. I created in “Homekit” automated patterns and different schedules for every room to make our life even more convenient. Everything worked perfectly as advertised until 2 weeks ago when 1 device was unresponsive. So I contacted the company and they went above and beyond in their efforts to help repair and replace it. They were fast responsive and quick to provide solutions. If I find a need for additional shades, I will always go to “Wazombi”. I got the devices, I install them and everything is working perfectly. Thanks again! I wrote a good review as a sign of my appreciation.

completely bug infested app—needs total rehabilitation.

Currently, app does “100% Closed” or “100% Open” and in between. That would be fine if actually was accurate, which it is not. The slippage adjustment simply doesn’t work. Would be happy if I could just manually open and close by simply pressing and holding up or down buttons like during calibration. Instead, I need to delete the module and go through calibration and setup each time I need to open or close my blinds.

First off the Sona Connect image for Raspberry pi doesn't expand the filesystem on first boot. Second I have to lay on my side because this app is portrait orientation only on the iPad. Third, "sudo passwd pi" doesn't change the password as expected. I'm still stuck with the default password Fourth, sudo apt update tells me the software repository is unsigned and that's a huge red flag Fifth, The app is also unable to find my Sona Connect, just a sideways message saying "Move Closer To Device", I've been trying for about 10 minutes now. In conclusion, it seems that this app and the Sona Connect are nothing more than a beta tester device at best, and at worst it's a botnet waiting to happen

The app worked well until March 2021 when the sunset closing function stopped working randomly.

Has lots of potential. Seems to experiencing a lot of connectivity issues with their soma connect and HomeKit. Works when I reset everything but isn’t reliable therefore afterwards. Hoping they can resolve this and make the connect and device more stable. Will update to 5 stars once resolved.

Works well for individual shades but doesn’t allow triggers for groups. Once you group, you can’t even access the triggers to open or close the shades at a specific time and you have to ungroup to change anything. If the triggers were allowed on groups this app would be great.
