Used to work fine, now doesn't work at all. Always get "we've encountered an unexpected error" when trying to access my account. Will not let me manage my wifi on a pc as traditional routers would, only option is to use this app which isn't working. If I was still within the return period of purchasing the router, I'd return it. Currently can't add my new printer to the wifi because some setting is messed up. Disappointing $500 purchase. Next one definitely won't be a linksys.

This app is not good. I have the Velop system, which is great once you get it set up. As far as I can tell you must use the app to get up and running. It was finicky at best, losing connection and forcing me to start over multiple times. Once I suffered through the system has been stable for a few months now. Recently I had to turn off the power for a bit and one of the satellite nodes was powered off for a bit. Once it came back on the app starting notifying me that my network was offline (no it wasn't) and disconnected from the internet (wrong again). When I opened up the app to see the problem it completely failed to find that there are any Linksys devices attached to the network at all. Solid work there Linksys app team. The app does give you a link to send feedback. So I did. I received back a lovely response that app feedback isn't something that email address is for and to get lost.

UPDATE: I don't like that some setup/configurations options are not available in the app and you still have to use the web interface. I wouldn't mind as much if I could still with the browser on my phone. Lowered my rating. This is a very easy to use app for basic router operations. Response is slow for some things. Such as acknowledging the messages at the top as well as selecting some of the options. But even with that, I like the ease of use. I even updated the firmware with it.
